Homes for sale in Lotus

Every active Lotus listing in the MLS, updated continuously. Lotus is large enough that inventory turns over steadily, which makes recent sold comparables more useful here than in the smaller gates nearby.

Listings are provided through the Flexmls IDX feed and reflect current MLS data. For homes that trade before they are marketed in Lotus, call me at (561) 542-7355.

About Lotus

Lotus is 805 single-family homes on Lyons Road in west Boca Raton, opened by GL Homes in 2019. The floor plans span roughly 2,000 to 5,500 air-conditioned square feet across several collections, in contemporary elevations that look nothing like the Mediterranean stock that dominated Boca for twenty years.

This is an all-ages community, and it is unapologetically built for families. The amenity deck includes a full water park, which is the single feature buyers with young children mention first and the one retirees most often ask me to talk them out of.

Lotus is the volume play in west Boca. Because there are 805 homes and multiple collections, there is nearly always something available, and there is genuine competition between sellers of the same floor plan. That is good news if you are buying and something to plan carefully around if you are selling.

What it costs to own at Lotus

HOA dues at Lotus cover the manned gate, the clubhouse and water park operation, common area landscaping and the bulk cable and internet package. A community with amenities on this scale carries a real operating budget, so ask for the current figure and read what it actually includes.

The three documents that decide the deal

The current association budget, the most recent reserve study, and twelve months of board minutes. The monthly fee on a listing sheet tells you almost nothing on its own. The reserve study tells you whether an assessment is coming. I pull and read all three for every client, before we make an offer.

One point specific to Lotus. Water features and a water park are expensive things to maintain and eventually to replace. The reserve study is where you find out whether that replacement is funded or whether it will arrive as an assessment.

How I represent buyers on a GL Homes community purchase

How Lotus compares

Lotus and Boca Bridges sit close together and are the two names most west Boca buyers weigh against each other. Lotus is the larger community, the more family-oriented, and the one with the water park. Boca Bridges is smaller, quieter, and runs larger at the top of its size range. If you want the same builder but new rather than resale, look at Lotus Edge and Lotus Palm.

Lotus questions I get asked most

How many homes are in Lotus?

805 single-family homes, which makes it one of the larger all-ages GL Homes communities in west Boca Raton.

Is Lotus age restricted?

No. Lotus is an all-ages community with no 55+ requirement. It is one of the most family-heavy gates in west Boca.

Is Lotus guard gated?

Yes. Entry is controlled by a manned gatehouse.

What is the difference between Lotus, Lotus Edge and Lotus Palm?

They are three separate GL Homes communities sharing a name and a design language, not phases of one community. Lotus came first and is fully built out, so it trades as resale. Lotus Palm and Lotus Edge came later and have been the places to buy new from the builder. Each has its own association, its own dues and its own clubhouse, so do not assume a figure from one applies to another.

Can I rent out a home in Lotus?

Leasing is permitted with restrictions, typically including a minimum ownership period, a minimum lease term and board approval of the tenant. If rental income is part of your plan, tell me early and I will pull the current rules before you write an offer.

Which schools serve Lotus?

Lotus falls within the west Boca Raton attendance area, which is one of the stronger assignments in Palm Beach County. Boundaries change, so confirm the current assignment with the School District of Palm Beach County before you rely on it.

What clients say

Reviews left on Zillow by buyers and sellers I have worked with across Palm Beach County.

  • Zillow 5 Star Review  Harvey did an outstanding job selling and marketing our house. He helped us navigate a few obstacles to ensure the sale of our house in timely manner. We absolutely recommend him to prospective sellers.

    Zillow 5 Star Review  Harvey is amazing. Although he is the realtor, he listened to what I expected from my home. To others it may have been just a house, but it was my home for 36 years. He understood, and treated it as if it was his own! Harvey went above and beyond to sell my house quickly, and still got my asking price. He kept me in the loop every step of the way! There is no better than Harvey Dubov.

    Zillow 5 Star Review  Harvey expertly knows how to sell homes in the Valencias and other gated communities in Palm Beach County. He has the right touch with potential buyers and knows how to make the deal happen. He sold our home within about a month of listing. Every potential buyer was real. Harvey advised how we should prep the home for showings and it worked. He is clearly the most professional and talented broker working with the Valencia communities.

  • Zillow 5 Star Review  Harvey is a very experienced real estate professional and we highly recommend him if you need to sell your home. Harvey was very responsive to concerns and was in constant communication with us. He also helped us find vendors to correct some issues. Although we priced our property at a high number based on the current market, and we had to change the price based on the changing market, Harvey achieved getting us our asking price. He was great to work with, especially in a buyers market.

    Zillow 5 Star Review  My wife & I have moved 7 times in the last 27 years due to transfers in my job. Obviously, we've dealt with many realtors both on the buying and selling side. I have to say that Harvey is by far the BEST realtor we have ever worked with. His extensive experience, pleasant personality, professionalism and deep knowledge of his trade were instrumental in closing our deal at a time when we most needed it! If you are buying or selling a home in Boca Raton, Delray Beach, Boynton Beach or surrounding area, do yourselves a favor and hire Harvey Dubov!!Prodip and Denise Chaudhury

  • Zillow 5 Star Review  Valentines Day is almost here. Hearts and flowers cannot convey the gratitude we feel to realtor extraordinaire, Harvey Dubov of Keller Williams. Harvey simultaneously orchestrated the sale of our former home and the purchase of our dream house. There is no better advocate than Harvey Dubov to get you to the right place at the right price! Harvey is the South Florida Dynamo!Paulette, Wolf, and their Pack
