Esprit at Avenir is a 55+ gated neighborhood within Avenir, Palm Beach Gardens’ newest master-planned community, built by Kolter Homes. It has about 490 homesites, with Avenir’s lakes, preserve trails, clubhouses and the new Avenir Town Center close at hand.
Stefan’s take
Esprit is Kolter’s 55+ answer to resort living: a private clubhouse with a full-service restaurant, multiple pools and room to personalize your home. Getting in early means picking your lot and your finishes.

Avenir Town Center opened its Publix in May 2026 and is growing into a local hub for shopping, dining and everyday services, and Health Park at Avenir, a medical campus with hospital and medical office space, broke ground in June 2026.

Before You Make an Offer
- Bring your agent from the first visit: many builders require your agent to register with you at the first sales-center visit, so call me before you tour.
- Builder contracts: review the deposit schedule, build timeline, included features and incentives before you sign.
- Associations and district fees: budget for the neighborhood association and the Avenir master association, and ask whether a community development district assessment appears on the tax bill.
- Age guidelines: confirm the community’s 55+ occupancy rules for any household members and guests.
- Taxes after you buy: new homes are assessed at completed value, so file for homestead with the Palm Beach County Property Appraiser by March 1 if the home will be your primary residence.
