Laurel Oaks offers a compelling combination inside Boca West Country Club: the space and privacy many buyers want, with the convenience of condominium living.
The community is known for open floor plans, private interior elevator access, oversized screened balconies and views across Boca West’s gardens, lakes and golf courses. It is a particularly attractive choice for buyers who want more living space than a typical condominium but do not want the maintenance responsibilities of a single-family home.
The Entel Group has recently completed a sale in Laurel Oaks, giving our team direct experience with the residences, association process and buyer expectations in this distinctive Boca West village.

Laurel Oaks is positioned along Boca West Drive within Boca West Country Club’s 1,400-acre residential and club community. Its mid-rise buildings sit among mature landscaping, lakes and golf-course scenery.
The location gives residents a quieter residential setting while keeping Boca West’s golf, racquet sports, wellness, dining and social facilities close at hand. For many owners, this balance is one of Laurel Oaks’ greatest advantages: a private home environment connected to a highly active club lifestyle.
Laurel Oaks is a condominium community rather than a collection of townhomes or detached residences. Available properties generally include generously proportioned two- and three-bedroom floor plans, although exact layouts and square footage differ by building and unit.
Common features may include:
The screened balconies are an important part of the Laurel Oaks lifestyle. They extend the living space outdoors and allow residents to enjoy Boca West’s landscaping and views throughout much of the year.
Laurel Oaks often appeals to buyers who want the comfort of a larger residence without the exterior upkeep associated with a detached home.
It may be an excellent fit for buyers seeking:
The community can work equally well for seasonal owners and full-time residents. The important question is not simply how many bedrooms a residence has, but whether the layout, exposure, renovation level and view fit the buyer’s daily lifestyle.
Pricing in Laurel Oaks varies considerably based on size, floor, view, condition and renovation quality. Updated, move-in-ready residences with desirable exposures can command a significant premium over units requiring extensive work.
Recent market activity illustrates the upper end of that difference. A Laurel Oaks residence measuring approximately 2,762 square feet closed for $1.52 million on April 30, 2026, or approximately $551 per square foot. Because Laurel Oaks has several building configurations and a wide range of interior conditions, one sale should not be used to value every residence.
Current asking prices can also change quickly. Buyers and sellers should rely on an MLS-backed review of the most comparable residences rather than a broad online estimate.

The following 2026 closings provide a useful snapshot of the range within Laurel Oaks. Prices reflect differences in floor plan, renovation level, floor, exposure and view.
Residence | Closing date | Beds/baths | Approx. living area | Sale price | Approx. price per sq. ft. |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
20080 Boca West Drive #427 | August 17, 2026 | 2 / 2 | 1,760 sq. ft. | $1,118,000 | $635 |
20090 Boca West Drive #318 | July 30, 2026 | 3 / 2.5 | 2,200 sq. ft. | $1,118,000 | $508 |
Laurel Oaks residence | April 30, 2026 | — | 2,762 sq. ft. | $1,520,000 | $551 |
20100 Boca West Drive #126 | April 8, 2026 | 2 / 2 | 1,760 sq. ft. | $478,000 | $272 |
The spread is significant. Two residences with the same 1,760-square-foot floor plan sold for dramatically different prices, demonstrating how renovation quality, view, floor and presentation can influence value. The higher-priced closings also show that buyers will pay a premium for an exceptional, move-in-ready Laurel Oaks residence.
For sellers, this means the highest sale in the building should not automatically become the asking price for every unit. For buyers, the lowest sale does not necessarily indicate what a renovated residence with a premium view is worth. The most reliable valuation comes from comparing the subject property with the closest recent sales and adjusting for its specific condition and location.
Sales information is based on publicly available listing and market data reviewed September 5, 2026. Details should be confirmed through the MLS before being used for a purchase, sale or valuation decision.
Very important.
Two residences with similar interiors may feel entirely different based on their elevation and exposure. Some overlook mature gardens, while others offer lake or golf-course scenery. Buyers should consider not only the view itself but also natural light, privacy, afternoon sun and the way the balcony relates to the main living space.
A strong view can also influence future resale demand. However, condition and layout remain important. A thoughtfully renovated residence with a less dramatic view may compete successfully against an older unit with a premium exposure.
The right comparison requires seeing the properties in person.
Some are, and some present an opportunity for a buyer to renovate.
Because residences have been improved at different times, buyers may encounter everything from largely original interiors to complete contemporary renovations. Important updates can include kitchens, bathrooms, flooring, lighting, built-ins, impact protection and mechanical systems.
Before purchasing, buyers should investigate:
The purchase price is only one part of the decision. A lower-priced residence may require a meaningful renovation budget and additional time before it is ready to enjoy.
Condominium ownership can simplify exterior maintenance, landscaping and many building responsibilities. That makes Laurel Oaks attractive to owners who travel frequently or spend part of the year elsewhere.
However, convenience does not eliminate due diligence. Buyers should review the condominium documents, budget, insurance coverage, reserves, recent meeting minutes, assessments and maintenance obligations for the specific association.
Monthly or quarterly fees can vary by building and residence. They should always be verified directly rather than assumed from an older listing.
Laurel Oaks ownership includes access to the broader Boca West Country Club lifestyle through required club membership.
Boca West offers four golf courses, extensive tennis and pickleball facilities, fitness and wellness programming, resort-style pools, spa services, multiple dining venues and hundreds of annual events. The club continues to invest in its golf, racquet, wellness, dining and social facilities.
For Laurel Oaks residents, that means low-maintenance condominium living without giving up activity or connection. A typical day can include golf or pickleball, fitness, lunch with friends, time by the pool and dinner at the club—all within the community.
As of September 2026, Boca West’s joining costs are scheduled to increase on October 1, 2026. Buyers should confirm the current club contribution, master association contribution, annual dues and the timing requirements that apply to their purchase.
Club membership costs are separate from the condominium purchase price and Laurel Oaks association fees. Property taxes, insurance and any planned renovations should also be included when calculating the total cost of ownership.
The Entel Group helps buyers review the complete financial picture before making an offer.
Not necessarily.
The best strategy depends on the residence’s current condition, view, competition and likely buyer. Fully renovated units can attract buyers who want an immediate move, while original residences may appeal to those who want to design their own home.
Before committing to a major renovation, sellers should compare the probable increase in value with the cost, approval process and construction timeline. Strategic improvements—paint, lighting, flooring repairs, decluttering, staging and professional photography—may provide a better return than undertaking a complete renovation solely for resale.
Marketing should show how the residence lives, not simply list its rooms.
The presentation should emphasize:
Wide-angle photography must be accurate rather than misleading. Floor plans, balcony imagery and daytime view photography are especially valuable because they help buyers understand the residence before scheduling a showing.
Laurel Oaks occupies an appealing middle ground in Boca West. It provides substantially more space than many traditional condominiums while preserving the ease of a lock-and-leave home.
Private elevator access, oversized balconies and varied views give the residences a sense of privacy and individuality. The community pool adds another convenient amenity, while Boca West supplies the larger golf, racquet, wellness, dining and social lifestyle.
The key is choosing the right residence. Floor, exposure, condition and renovation requirements can create significant differences in both experience and value. As Boca West resident Realtors with recent transaction experience in Laurel Oaks, The Entel Group can help buyers and sellers interpret those differences.
