Key Takeaways
- • GL Homes will offer all 11 fully furnished, designer-decorated model homes for sale starting Oct. 16 at APEX at Avenir, its luxury neighborhood in the Avenir master-planned community in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida.
- • Model pricing ranges from approximately $1.6 million to $3.5 million, with homes spanning roughly 2,400 to 5,500 air-conditioned square feet.
- • Each sale includes furniture, decor and designer upgrades, so buyers acquire a finished home in a community whose amenities are already open.
- • Pre-registration runs through 5 p.m. on Oct. 14 with a $10,000 refundable deposit; purchases are limited to one model per buyer and closings are estimated for late summer 2027.
- • GL Homes, one of Florida's largest privately owned homebuilders, is led by President Misha Ezratti, and the sale marks a retail release of its model inventory rather than a new community launch.
Summary
The lineup includes single-story and two-story designs, many on lakefront homesites with private pools. The single-story Calypso features decorative ceiling beams and a den with a custom entertainment wall. The Orion pairs wide-plank white oak flooring with Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances and a private office. The Zenith adds a glass-enclosed wine room and media room. The Celestia, the largest home in the Pinnacle Collection, includes a frameless glass staircase and a marble pool with a cabana bath, while the Solaris, the largest in the Summit Collection, offers 12-foot ceilings, a club room with a wet bar and a private executive office.
Misha Ezratti, president of GL Homes, said buyers who tour the models often say they would move in tomorrow if they could, and that offering furnished homes gives buyers a finished property in a community where the Clubhouse, Racquet Club and Town Center are already operating. The community is anchored by the 28,000-square-foot Great Egret Clubhouse, which opened to residents in September. Amenities include a fitness center, spa facilities, a full-service restaurant and bar, a resort-style pool with a lap pool, and a Racquet Club with 12 lighted pickleball courts and nine lighted clay tennis courts. The newly opened Avenir Town Center, anchored by Publix and Walgreens, sits nearby. The gated community is minutes from three golf courses, including Panther National Golf Club and Sand Hill Crane Golf Course, and about 10 miles from HCA Florida Palm Beach Gardens and Palm Beach Gardens Medical Center. Avenir plans on-site medical facilities as the master plan expands.
Pre-registration is open through 5 p.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 14. Buyers can reserve a model with a $10,000 refundable deposit at the APEX at Avenir sales office before the Oct. 16 sale. Brokers are welcome but must accompany clients on their first visit. Models are open for tours daily from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. at 12874 Soaring View, Palm Beach Gardens, FL 33412.
