Brand New Single-Family Homes Minutes From Downtown West Palm: Inside The Estates at NoMar

Just under $2.2 million buys you a brand new, no-HOA single-family home minutes from downtown West Palm Beach at The Estates at NoMar — a community built by GL Homes with seven floor plans ranging from roughly 1,900 to just shy of 4,000 square feet.

I track every new construction project close to downtown West Palm because it's reshaping who can buy near the water without paying condo-tower prices. Here is the full breakdown.

What Is The Estates at NoMar

The Estates at NoMar is a new single-family home community close to downtown West Palm Beach, built by GL Homes, one of the more established builders operating throughout Palm Beach County. The model unit I toured was priced just under $2.2 million and showcased the Mykonos floor plan: a three-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bathroom home with a den, a loft, and a two-car garage, all just under 2,700 square feet. In the model, the space normally occupied by the garage was opened up as doors for showing purposes, but every home in this floor plan is built with a two-car garage.

Why No HOA Matters Here

Probably the most important detail about The Estates at NoMar is that these homes carry no HOA. When most buyers think about new construction this close to downtown West Palm, they immediately picture condo towers — and for good reason, given everything currently rising in the area. But GL Homes built an alternative: single-family homes with no homeowners association fee stacked on top of the mortgage, which changes the monthly cost math significantly compared to a comparable condo.

What Else Is Being Built Near Downtown West Palm

New construction close to downtown West Palm right now is dominated by condo towers, and there are several notable ones in the pipeline: the Mr. C, the Ritz-Carlton, Mandarin Oriental, Banyan Tree, Nora House, and Flagler House, among others. The Estates at NoMar stands apart from all of them because it's horizontal, single-family product in a market segment that's almost entirely going vertical right now.

The Seven Floor Plans, From Smallest to Largest

There are seven different floor plans available at The Estates at NoMar. The smallest is the Amalfi, a two-bedroom with either a den or an optional third bedroom, at right around 1,900 square feet — still a solid size for a starter or downsizer home this close to the urban core. On the opposite end, the largest floor plan is a four-bedroom with a loft at just shy of 4,000 square feet. The model I toured, the Mykonos, sits in the middle of that range at just under 2,700 square feet with three bedrooms, three and a half bathrooms, a den, and a loft.

What This Means for Buyers Considering West Palm Beach

If you want to be close to downtown West Palm but don't want to buy into a condo tower, carry a monthly HOA payment, or wait years for a building to complete, The Estates at NoMar is one of the few new-construction, no-HOA, single-family options in that immediate radius. For buyers weighing a $2.2 million condo against a $2.2 million single-family home in this location, the calculus comes down to whether you value space and land under your own home versus building amenities and a full-service lifestyle — and here, GL Homes is giving buyers a real choice instead of forcing everyone into a tower.

Am I Bullish on The Estates at NoMar?

Yes. A builder as established as GL Homes putting a no-HOA, single-family community this close to downtown West Palm, in a submarket that's otherwise all condo construction, tells me there's real demand for this product type from buyers who want proximity without the tower lifestyle. I'd expect strong absorption here given how little direct competition this floor plan mix has in the immediate downtown radius.
