BOYNTON BEACH – The heat index is rising this summer and so are sales at Valencia Pointe by G.L. Homes.  It’s easy to see why: this premier active adult community in Boynton Beach has it all.  There are the elegant, spacious homes designed to fit the lifestyle needs of today’s active adults, as well as world-class recreational amenities and planned activities that keep involved residents busy throughout the year.

Quick Delivery Homes are extremely popular among Valencia Pointe buyers.  These homes are perfect for homebuyers who do not want to wait for their home to be built and thus who are willing and able to move in right away.  Offered at an incredible price, these homes are selling fast.  In fact, only three elegantly decorated and lavishly furnished Quick Delivery Homes are still available for purchase.   
“Home sales are booming this summer at Valencia Pointe.  June was a phenomenal sales month,” said Theresa Fowler, vice president and project manager for G.L. Homes at Valencia Pointe.  “The popularity of this community is due our Quick Delivery Homes which make it easy to move into a new home hassle-free.”  

The Crown, Signature and Regency Collections, Valencia Pointe’s three breathtaking home design collections, all have Quick Delivery Homes available.  The enchanting Atlantic Grand has two bedrooms, a den and two-and-a-half bathrooms; while the spellbinding Isabelle has two bedrooms, a den and two bathrooms.  The sophisticated Victoria model features two bedrooms and two bathrooms, while the lavish Avila has three bedrooms and two-and-a-half bathrooms.  Finally, the regal Gibraltar has three bedrooms, two-and-a-half bathrooms, den and screened covered patio.  These homes also boast beautifully upgraded interior and exterior features.

Found in the notable Signature and Crown Collections are an upgraded kitchen, a comfortable café and a secluded covered patio.  The kitchen has intricate detailing with granite countertops in a choice of three designer colors, stainless steel appliances, a built-in pantry, wood cabinets with crown molding and glass doors and lighting above and under the cabinets.

Wall-to-wall carpeting with upgraded padding is found in select rooms, granite vanity countertops in three decorator colors and a Roman cultured marble tub with a separate glass-enclosed shower in the master bath are also found in each home.  Other in-home features include wood cabinets, colonial-style raised panel interior doors and marble window sills. 

The striking Regency Collection offers dazzling amenities such as ceramic tiles and an upgraded kitchen with matte foil raised-panel, European-style cabinets with solid surface countertops and a complete appliance package, including a 21.8-cubic-foot, side-by-side refrigerator with ice maker and ice dispenser in the door and an energy-efficient dishwasher.  Also included in each home is a large capacity washer and dryer in the laundry room.

Homes also boast stylish amenities.  The master bath has a shower with glass enclosure, as well as 12-inch to 18-inch ceramic tile on the main floor of the master bathroom in select floor plans, cultured marble vanities in a choice of colors installed at a raised height, and designer fixtures.  Homes in all three compelling collections have a concrete Spanish hacienda double-roll roof tile; a brick-paver driveway and walkway; a covered entry and an alarm system with contacts on all windows and doors.

Valencia Pointe homebuyers can select from 16 spacious floorplans.  They range in size from 1,303 to 3,466 air-conditioned square feet of living space.  These include two to four bedrooms, two to three bathrooms, and a two-car garage.  Homes are available at an incredible new home value from the low $300,000s to more than $600,000.

“Another selling point of Valencia Pointe is the community’s out-of-this-world recreational amenities and facilities,” said Fowler.  “Our celebrated lifestyle staff is the architect behind the creation of exciting social activities that attract and encourage high participation among our residents.”

A 35,000 square-foot clubhouse is the centerpiece and social center of Valencia Pointe.  Located on its own private peninsula, the clubhouse is home to incredible views and an outstanding selection of activities.  Specialty rooms such as the billiards room and card rooms, as well as the more than 50 clubs make it easy to learn new activities and meet others who share the same interests.  In addition, televisions are strategically placed throughout the clubhouse, and an Internet café and deli are open for breakfast and lunch.  The clubhouse also has a grand ballroom with a stage to host phenomenal Broadway-style performances with big name performers such as Alan Thicke, Jackie Mason and Joy Behar.
       
A popular attraction in the clubhouse is the fully-equipped fitness center which offers diverse classes, modern cardiovascular and conditioning machines and an innovative resistance-walking pool.  Personal trainers are also available to residents.  The recreational facility also features six Har-Tru® tennis courts, a scenic putting green and half-size basketball court.

Residents can pamper themselves in the community’s indoor spa, complete with a facial/massage room, separate men’s and women’s steam rooms, showers and locker rooms. Or there’s the outdoor whirlpool spa and the combination resort-style swimming/lap pool.
