Discover the Lifestyle of CLT Villas Homes

CLT Villas is a newly completed affordable homeownership development in Lake Worth Beach, created by the Community Land Trust of Palm Beach County and the Treasure Coast in partnership with public and community organizations. Rather than occupying one traditional subdivision, the project consists of eight villa residences constructed across four scattered sites in Lake Worth Beach. Palm Beach County records identify the locations as 417 South D Street, 610 North E Street, 625 North D Street, and 1306 1st Avenue South.

The scattered-site design places the homes within established sections of Lake Worth Beach, close to the city’s downtown street grid and everyday destinations. Buyers researching CLT Villas Homes for Sale should be aware that these properties use a community land trust model designed to preserve affordability over time, with eligibility and resale requirements that differ from conventional market-rate ownership.

About CLT Villas

CLT Villas consists of eight attached villa homes, with two residences developed on each of four sites. Palm Beach County described the project as new construction of two-unit villas, while housing reports identify the properties as attached single-family homes.

Because CLT Villas is a community land trust development, its ownership structure is an important part of understanding the community. The Community Land Trust of Palm Beach County and the Treasure Coast explains that its model is intended to create a permanent supply of affordable housing. When one of its homes is resold, the price is determined according to a formula contained in the ground lease, balancing homeowner equity with affordability for a future qualified buyer.

History of CLT Villas

The CLT Villas project grew from affordable-housing efforts involving the Community Land Trust of Palm Beach County and the Treasure Coast, Lake Worth Beach CRA, and Palm Beach County. In May 2024, Palm Beach County considered funding for what was formally described as the Lake Worth Beach CRA Scattered Site Villas project. Plans called for eight residences on four sites, with the homes intended for income-qualified purchasers.

In October 2024, Palm Beach County approved a $1.48 million General Obligation Housing Bond Loan Program award for the development. County records from January 2026 subsequently referenced financing agreements assisting with construction of the Lake Worth Beach CRA Villas Project.

The eight-home project has since reached completion, marking another expansion of the Community Land Trust’s affordable homeownership efforts in Lake Worth Beach.

Amenities

CLT Villas is designed as a scattered-site residential development rather than a conventional master-planned community with a centralized clubhouse or recreation complex. No dedicated community pool, clubhouse, fitness center, or similar private amenity package was identified in the available project records.

The primary lifestyle advantage is therefore its Lake Worth Beach location. Because the residences are spread among four sites, proximity to individual parks, shops, restaurants, and other public amenities varies by address.

Community-specific characteristics include:

• Eight villa residences across four Lake Worth Beach sites
• Two residences per development site
• Community land trust ownership structure
• Locations along South D Street, North D Street, North E Street, and 1st Avenue South
• Access to the broader public amenities, recreation, shopping, dining, and services available throughout Lake Worth Beach
