Homes for Sale in Boca Raton, FL

Boca Raton is one of South Florida's most prestigious coastal cities, known for Addison Mizner-inspired architecture, beautiful beaches, parks and cultural centers. It sits at the southern tip of Palm Beach County, with everything from oceanfront homes to club communities.

Boca Raton sits in southern Palm Beach County, about 45 miles north of Miami. Architect Addison Mizner shaped its look in the 1920s, and you still see his Mediterranean Revival and Spanish Colonial Revival influence across the city. The Boca Raton Resort began as his Cloister Inn in 1926, and its pink tower is visible from the Intracoastal Waterway.

Downtown, Mizner Park is an outdoor center of restaurants, boutiques and housing, with the Boca Raton Museum of Art and the Count de Hoernle Amphitheater. Royal Palm Place sits next to it, and Town Center at Boca Raton is the largest enclosed mall in Palm Beach County.

The city has about two miles of beach, including Red Reef Park and South Inlet Park. Gumbo Limbo Environmental Complex, in Red Reef Park, is an environmental education center. Florida Atlantic University, which held its first classes in Boca Raton in 1964, is the largest university in the city.

One thing worth knowing: many people with a Boca Raton mailing address live outside city limits, such as in West Boca Raton. That affects taxes, services and rules, so I check exactly where a home sits before you write an offer.

Schools: Boca Raton is in the School District of Palm Beach County. Which school a home is zoned for depends on the address, so I confirm the assignment with the district before you make an offer. If schools are a priority, tell me early and I will build your search around it.
