Big news for Boca Raton real estate: GL Homes, the powerhouse builder behind the Lotus and Valencia communities, has officially announced Agave Boca, a brand-new community of more than 300 ultra-luxury two- and three-story townhomes coming to West Boca Raton, with prices starting at $1.3 million and sales anticipated to begin in 2027. It marks a major strategic shift for one of Florida's most successful homebuilders—and a rare opportunity for buyers who have been waiting for new construction townhomes in one of South Florida's most supply-constrained markets.
Here's everything we know so far about Agave Boca, why this announcement matters, and how to get positioned before the first release.
Why This Announcement Is a Big Deal
For 50 years, GL Homes has built its reputation on single-family communities—first with the Valencia brand that redefined 55+ living in Palm Beach County, and more recently with the luxury Lotus series in Boca Raton, where homes routinely sell from $1.7 million to well over $3 million. Agave Boca is different: it is the builder's first-ever ultra-luxury townhome community, described by GL Homes as "unlike anything" it has offered before.
That pivot tells you something about where the Boca Raton market is heading. Demand for luxury living in Boca has never been stronger, but buildable land is nearly gone and single-family prices have pushed past the reach of many buyers who still want new construction, modern design, and resort amenities. A townhome community priced from $1.3 million—several hundred thousand dollars below the entry point at neighboring Lotus Edge—fills a gap that has existed in this market for years.
Key Facts at a Glance
- Community: Agave Boca by GL Homes
- Product: 300+ ultra-luxury two- and three-story townhomes
- Pricing: From $1.3 million
- Location: East side of Lyons Road between Glades Road and Yamato Road, West Boca Raton
- Timeline: Construction expected to begin fall 2026; sales anticipated in 2027
- Lifestyle: Turnkey, low-maintenance living with curated amenities
The Story Behind the Land
Agave Boca will rise on one of the most talked-about parcels in Palm Beach County. In 2021, GL Homes paid $215 million for the 330-acre Johns Farm tract straddling Lyons Road—the last undeveloped land along Lyons between Glades Road and Yamato Road. Palm Beach County commissioners approved the master plan in early 2024, clearing the way for 660 single-family homes on the west side of Lyons Road (now the fast-selling Lotus Edge community) and a 322-townhome neighborhood on the roughly 70-acre east parcel, directly across from Olympic Heights Community High School.
That east parcel is Agave Boca. Construction is expected to get underway in fall 2026, with sales launching in 2027 and buildout continuing in phases. Notably, Agave Boca will be its own standalone community—it is not connected to Lotus Edge—which means its own identity, its own amenities, and its own gated entrance experience.
What Will the Townhomes Be Like?
GL Homes is keeping floor plans and renderings under wraps for now, but the early preview imagery points to a sharply contemporary architectural direction: flat rooflines with parapet details, warm stucco facades with natural stone accents, vertical wood slat elements, and expansive black-framed glass—all set against landscaping anchored by sculptural agave plants that inspired the community's name.
What GL Homes has confirmed is the lifestyle positioning: turnkey, low-maintenance living with "thoughtfully curated amenities" and an elevated experience aimed at buyers seeking either a full-time residence or a sophisticated South Florida retreat. If the builder's track record is any indication—think of the resort-style clubhouses, pools, and sports facilities at Lotus and Valencia communities—Agave Boca's amenity package should be well worth the wait.
A Location That Checks Every Box
West Boca's Lyons Road corridor has quietly become one of the most desirable stretches in the city. Agave Boca residents will be minutes from Uptown Boca's restaurants and shops, a short drive from Town Center at Boca Raton and Mizner Park, and within easy reach of Florida's Turnpike via Glades Road. The community is zoned for a well-regarded public school lineup—Sunset Park Elementary, Eagles Landing Middle, and Olympic Heights Community High directly across the street—which should make it especially appealing to families. And Boca Raton's beaches, golf courses, and downtown dining scene are all within a 20- to 25-minute drive.
What This Means for the Boca Raton Market
Agave Boca's announcement is likely to ripple through the West Boca market in two ways. First, it validates the townhome segment at a price point Boca Raton has rarely seen for attached new construction, which should lift values for quality resale townhomes throughout the area. Second, it gives move-up and downsizing buyers a compelling reason to sell existing homes nearby—and communities within a few miles of Lyons Road tend to see increased buyer traffic when GL Homes opens a new sales office.
If you own a home in West Boca and have been contemplating a move, the run-up to Agave Boca's 2027 launch is a smart window to understand your home's value and plan your timing.
How to Get Positioned Before Sales Begin
GL Homes communities in Boca Raton have a history of selling fast—Lotus Edge sold roughly 550 of its 649 homes in its first two years. When Agave Boca launches, the earliest buyers will get the best selection of floor plans, homesites, and pre-release pricing. Getting positioned early matters, and working with an experienced buyer's agent costs you nothing: the builder's sales team represents the builder, while The Pearl Antonacci Group represents you—at no cost to you.
