Builder & Floor Plan
GL Homes, one of South Florida's highest-volume production builders, designed the Dorado as a three-bedroom equivalent with two full baths. The open great room flows into the kitchen and dining area, a layout GL Homes has refined across multiple Avenir phases to maximize livable square footage within a compact footprint. Total area under roof reaches 2,660 square feet including the garage and covered outdoor space.
Interior Layout
The kitchen anchors the central living area with a modern configuration oriented toward the great room, suitable for daily use and informal entertaining. The primary suite is positioned for privacy with direct garden views. A second guest bedroom and the converted den, serving as the third bedroom, occupy the opposite wing of the floor plan.
Outdoor Living
The rear outdoor area includes a gas stub-out pre-plumbed for a future summer kitchen, a practical addition given that Avenir's lot sizes do not easily accommodate large-scale outdoor renovations after the fact. The garden-view orientation provides a buffer from neighboring homes.
Community & Location
Apex at Avenir operates behind a 24-hour staffed gatehouse with a dedicated clubhouse that includes pickleball and tennis courts, an indoor sports complex, a restaurant and bar, and a nail salon. Avenir sits along Northlake Boulevard in the western growth corridor of Palm Beach Gardens, approximately 15 minutes from I-95 and 25 minutes from Palm Beach International Airport. The Avenir master plan encompasses several thousand acres with multiple builders and phases; Apex is one of the more recent neighborhoods within the community. For buyers comparing locations, Avenir offers newer infrastructure and larger community amenities relative to established communities closer to the coast, though the western location does add commute time to the island and downtown corridors.
