BOCA RATON NEIGHBORHOOD GUIDE

Valencia, Boca Raton: the Boca Pointe neighborhood, homes and HOA fees

In Boca Raton, "Valencia" usually means a gated neighborhood of 155 single-family homes inside Boca Pointe, built around 1988 to 1991. It is not one of GL Homes' 55+ Valencia communities: none of those has a Boca Raton address, and they sit in the Boynton Beach and Delray Beach area.

Valencia at a glance: which Valencia is this?

Two different things turn up when you search for Valencia in Boca Raton:

  • Valencia at Boca Pointe: the single-family neighborhood this page covers, inside the Boca Pointe master community.
  • GL Homes' Valencia communities: a series of 55+ communities. GL Homes' current list and community roundups place them in Boynton Beach, Delray Beach and other Florida cities. None has a Boca Raton address. GL Homes is selling Valencia Grand and Valencia Del Mar in Boynton Beach.

If you want a 55+ community, see 55+ communities in Boca Raton. Listing sources don't describe Valencia at Boca Pointe as a 55+ community, so ask the association to confirm its age rules before you rely on either answer.

Is Valencia a good area to live?

It suits buyers who want a detached house with a two-car garage inside a large gated community, without a mandatory club. Valencia's 155 homes sit within Boca Pointe, which the master association says has nine manned gated entrances and roving patrols, and The Club at Boca Pointe is optional.

The trade-offs are age and layered fees. Homes date from about 1988 to 1991, so the roof, air conditioning and windows matter as much as the finishes, and you pay the Valencia HOA plus any Boca Pointe master assessment.

Homes and prices in Valencia

One- and two-story single-family homes

Valencia has 155 one- and two-story single-family homes, according to Bex Realty. Listing sites put sizes at about 1,770 to just over 3,000 sq ft under air, with two to four bedrooms and two-car garages. Lots include waterfront, canal-adjacent and dry parcels, so compare lot type as well as house size.

Condition and inspections

With homes more than 30 years old, the roof, air conditioning, plumbing and windows matter as much as the finishes. Ask for permit dates on each, plus a four-point and wind mitigation inspection for insurance. Our Florida home inspection checklist covers what to ask for.

Recent prices

Listing sites report closed sales in Valencia from about $700,000 to $1.4 million. For context, Zillow's typical home value for Boca Pointe as a whole was $518,765 in August 2026, but that figure includes condos and villas. Ask a local agent for recent Valencia sales matched on size and lot.

What Valencia is known for: an optional club

No. Bex Realty describes membership as optional for Valencia owners, and The Club at Boca Pointe says membership is open to residents and non-residents. The club has a private 18-hole golf course, tennis, pickleball, fitness and several dining venues.

The club doesn't publish its fees online. If you want to join, ask for the current initiation, annual dues and any food minimum, and add them to your budget alongside the HOA. See our Boca Pointe guide for the wider community.

Living in Valencia

Shops and services

Boca Pointe has its own shopping area, the Boardwalk at 18th Street, and Palm Beach County Fire Rescue Station 56 is inside the master community.

Schools

The School District of Palm Beach County assigns public schools by street address, not by community name, so check each Valencia address in the district's Find My School tool rather than relying on a listing. The district kept its A grade from the state for 2025-26, and 84% of district-run schools were rated A or B. Our Boca Raton schools guide covers choice programs and how to confirm zoning.

Getting around

Boca Pointe sits around Powerline Road and SW 18th Street on the south side of Boca, and most trips are by car. For longer trips, Tri-Rail's Boca Raton station at 680 Yamato Road has free parking for commuters, and Brightline's downtown station at 101 NW 4th St. runs to Miami and Orlando.

Costs: HOA, property tax and flood

HOA fees

Listing sites put the Valencia HOA at about $524 to $560 a month, covering security, maintenance and the neighborhood's pool and grounds. Ask whether a separate Boca Pointe master association fee applies on top, and whether the quoted figure includes it.

Ask the association for:

  • The current Valencia assessment and any master association assessment
  • Any capital contribution or transfer fee at closing
  • Reserve levels and any planned special assessment, such as roof or road work
  • Leasing rules and approval timelines

Florida law also requires a disclosure summary before you sign a contract in an HOA community, covering membership, recorded covenants and assessments. For the city-wide price trend, see the Boca Raton housing market page.

Property tax

Valencia, like the rest of Boca Pointe, is in unincorporated Palm Beach County, so there is no City of Boca Raton line on the tax bill. Unincorporated parcels instead carry county-wide service rates, such as Fire/Rescue at 3.4581 mills and Library at 0.5491 mills, both as proposed for 2026. The county (4.5000 mills proposed) and the School Board (3.0390 state plus 3.2480 local) appear on every bill. If the home will be your permanent residence on January 1, file for homestead with the Property Appraiser by March 1: the first $25,000 exemption applies to all taxes, and an additional exemption of up to $25,722 (the 2025 figure) applies to non-school taxes. A sale resets the assessed value, so budget from the new value, not the seller's bill. See the Palm Beach County property tax guide.

Flood zone and insurance

Palm Beach County's Office of Emergency Management has separate address lookups for your hurricane evacuation zone and flood zone, and the two are not the same thing. Florida law requires a seller of residential property to give you a flood disclosure at or before signing, saying whether they know of flood damage, have filed a flood claim or received FEMA assistance for the home. Standard homeowners policies exclude flood, so get a flood quote as well as a wind quote.

Pros and cons of Valencia

Pro: no mandatory club

Expect to budget for roofs, air conditioning and windows if the seller hasn't replaced them.
