Ancient Tree Palm Beach Gardens: Resale Homes and Lifestyle
Historical video: This video comes from earlier builder marketing. Ancient Tree is separate from Avenir. The video's old new-construction, starting-price, no-CDD and Avenir amenity claims do not describe the current resale offer. Review the dated information below and the documents for the actual property.

Ancient Tree sits beside the western boundary of the city's Sandhill Crane Municipal Golf Club in Palm Beach Gardens. Balsamo Drive, Jeannine Street and Sally Ann Drive are the streets to compare when you want a newer detached house in a small neighborhood. The attraction is a home-centered routine with public golf nearby; the tradeoff is planning drives for shopping, healthcare and beach days. Ancient Tree is separate from Avenir, and buying here does not establish access to Avenir's amenities.
Community Overview: A Resale Neighborhood Beside Sandhill Crane
- Community: Ancient Tree in Palm Beach Gardens, ZIP 33412, with DiVosta/Pulte homes.
- Scale: The city's original development description identifies 97 single-family homes; construction began in 2019.
- Lots: Compare the individual survey, setbacks and usable yard rather than assuming every lot has the same width.
- Sales snapshot: Seven closings in the 12 months in Brian's October 18, 2026 Flexmls pull ranged from $1,190,000 to $1,450,000; median $1,325,000.
- Home layout: Compare bedrooms, flex space, pool and garage on the actual resale. Distinguish air-conditioned living area from total building area.
- Location: Near Northlake Boulevard and Sandhill Crane Golf Club, adjacent to Avenir rather than part of it.
HOA Dues and the Cost of Ownership
The October 18, 2026 Flexmls snapshot reported active-listing dues of $703 and $777 a month; closed records ranged from $616 to $787.33 a month, with one reported at $2,362 quarterly. These are dated listing figures, not a current association quote. Get the assessment schedule, budget, reserves, pending assessments and exactly what maintenance is included for the home you are considering.
Confirm any CDD or other non-ad valorem assessments on the actual tax bill and closing documents. Do not carry over Avenir's fee structure or an older no-CDD advertisement. Review roof permits, AC age, impact protection, insurance and any remaining transferable warranty; a newer build date does not establish current condition or warranty coverage.
An Ordinary Week: Home, Golf and Places Beyond the Gate
Think about three different outings before you choose a house. A weekday practice session at Sandhill Crane, an evening at The Nest and a weekend trip toward the coast offer different ways to use this location. The city operates the championship course and The Nest Par 3; bookings, fees and current operating conditions are separate from owning a home in Ancient Tree.
- Weekday: Check the city's Sandhill Crane practice and lesson schedule if golf is part of your routine. A neighboring course does not provide private or included playing rights.
- Evening: The Nest combines par-3 golf, a driving range and dining. It is an outing outside the community, rather than a promised Avenir clubhouse benefit.
- Weekend: Compare your own route toward Juno Beach Park or The Gardens Mall before deciding how often you would make the trip. Avoid treating a no-traffic estimate as your commute.
- Inside the neighborhood: Ask the HOA for its current amenity inventory, hours, guest rules and maintenance scope. Choose the home and association arrangements you will actually use.
- Schools and daily services: Verify current school assignment by address with the district. Compare groceries, fitness and any place of worship you attend from the specific home; proximity does not guarantee assignment, admission or access.
- Healthcare and nearby change: Palm Beach Gardens Medical Center provides emergency care, with its renovated emergency department completed in April 2025. The city still lists Coconut Crossing/Shops at Indian Trails on its construction-project page; treat it as a project to check, rather than an operating shopping destination.
Ancient Tree and Avenir: Compare the Actual Purchase
- Ancient Tree: Compare the existing home, condition, lot, current HOA documents and resale terms. DiVosta's former Ancient Tree sales URL now leads to its Palm Beach Gardens directory; current resale listings and recorded resales provide the relevant comparison.
- Avenir: Check each community's builder or resale terms, assessments, construction activity and documented amenity rights separately. Ancient Tree is not an Avenir subdivision.
- The tradeoff: An existing house lets you inspect what is there. A builder purchase may offer different choices, timing and contract terms. Neither the shared builder name nor a nearby gate makes the communities interchangeable.

Area clarification: The figures above are total building area, not air-conditioned living area. For example, the county record for 9206 Balsamo Drive reports 4,259 total square feet, while the listing reports 3,073 living square feet. Compare the same measurement on each property. Source snapshot: Flexmls, October 18, 2026; county record checked October 27, 2026.
