Property Description
Most Century Village inventory hits the market in one of two conditions: original 1973 finishes requiring $30,000-$50,000 in updates, or partially renovated with mismatched components. This unit is neither. The kitchen has quartz countertops and stainless steel appliances. The A/C was replaced in 2024. The water heater is 2025. The building roof went on in 2022. Impact hurricane windows run throughout every room. For buyers comparing this to original-condition units priced at $80,000-$120,000, the gap closes quickly once you factor renovation costs, contractor coordination, and the time before you can actually move in.
The enclosed Florida room separates this unit from typical Century Village inventory. Where most units offer a standard screened balcony, this corner unit has a wraparound enclosed porch with sliding windows on two walls climate-controlled space that functions as a third room. West-facing exposure catches afternoon light and palm tree views. Enclosed balconies add both livability and resale value.
Century Village West Palm Beach has served as home to a large, established Jewish community since the early 1970s. Multiple houses of worship are within walking distance of the community, located directly adjacent to and across from the main gates. For residents who observe Shabbat and prefer not to drive, this walkability is the primary reason they choose Century Village over other 55+ communities in Palm Beach County. Golden Lakes Village, located further west on Okeechobee, offers similar pricing but requires driving to reach houses of worship a meaningful distinction for observant buyers.
The living area measures 18x21 with recessed LED lighting and light LVP flooring throughout. The kitchen has white shaker-style cabinets, quartz counters, and matching stainless appliances including refrigerator, range, microwave, and dishwasher. The master bedroom accommodates a king bed and opens directly to the enclosed balcony through a sliding glass door. A walk-in closet with built-in organizer offers double hanging rods and center shelving. The second bedroom works as guest room or home office. The main bathroom features gray marble-look porcelain tile in the shower surround with contemporary vanity. The half bath has been updated with a gray accent wall and oil-rubbed bronze fixtures.
