The Estates at NOMAR brings a different type of new construction opportunity to West Palm Beach: a limited collection of contemporary single-family homes positioned near the Intracoastal Waterway and only minutes from the city's downtown core.
Located in the evolving Northwood Marina District, The Estates at NOMAR is being built by GL Homes with approximately 100 residences planned. Buyers can choose from seven floor plans ranging from approximately 1,889 to 3,940 air-conditioned square feet, with current designs spanning two to four bedrooms plus flexible spaces that can create additional bedrooms, offices, dens or entertainment areas.
What distinguishes NOMAR from many Palm Beach County new-construction communities is its setting. Instead of being located deep within a suburban master-planned development, these homes are being introduced into an established section of West Palm Beach that is undergoing significant residential, marina, dining and commercial investment. The result is an opportunity to combine a newly built luxury single-family home with convenient access to the waterfront and the city's growing urban districts.
For buyers researching West Palm Beach new construction homes, luxury homes near Downtown West Palm Beach, or homes for sale near the Intracoastal, The Estates at NOMAR deserves consideration.
GL Homes currently markets the overall collection from approximately $1.8 million into the $3 million range. Individual pricing varies according to floor plan, homesite, structural options, upgrades and whether the property is a to-be-built or early-move-in residence.
The location is arguably NOMAR's biggest differentiator.
The community's sales and model center is located at 425 40th Street, West Palm Beach, FL 33407, just west of North Flagler Drive in the city's northern waterfront area. GL Homes describes the neighborhood as part of the Northwood Marina District, adjacent to the Intracoastal Waterway.
From here, residents have convenient access to Downtown West Palm Beach, Palm Beach, the NORA District, Northwood, waterfront recreation and major transportation connections. GL Homes currently describes Palm Beach Island as approximately four miles away and Clematis Street and CityPlace as roughly three miles from NOMAR.
This location creates an interesting alternative for buyers who want the advantages of new construction without moving farther west into one of Palm Beach County's larger suburban communities.

GL Homes currently offers seven home designs at NOMAR. The collection starts with the approximately 1,889-square-foot Amalfi and extends to the 3,940-square-foot Tahiti. Current pricing below was published by GL Homes and should be treated as a snapshot rather than permanent pricing.

*Pricing verified from GL Homes as of August 2026 and subject to change without notice. Homesite premiums, structural options, design selections, pools, incentives and other costs can materially change the final purchase price.
At approximately 1,889 A/C square feet, the Amalfi is the most compact plan offered at NOMAR. It includes two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a den that can be configured as an optional third bedroom, a great room and a two-car garage.
For buyers who want a new luxury home near downtown without maintaining nearly 4,000 square feet, the Amalfi creates an option not commonly found in higher-end new-construction communities.
The Monaco increases the living area to approximately 2,496 square feet and provides three bedrooms, three bathrooms, a den with an optional fourth-bedroom configuration, a great room and a two-car garage.
The approximately 2,620-square-foot Mykonos incorporates three bedrooms, three full bathrooms, a half bathroom, den, great room, loft and two-car garage. GL Homes identifies the Mykonos as a two-story design.
The Riviera provides approximately 2,807 A/C square feet with three bedrooms, three bathrooms, a den that can become an optional fourth bedroom, a great room, loft and two-car garage.
Select early-move-in Riviera homes have also been released by the builder.
The Sardinia is currently one of the community's most notable plans. It includes approximately 3,252 A/C square feet, four bedrooms, four full bathrooms, one half bathroom, a great room, loft and three-car garage.
GL Homes reported in June 2026 that the Sardinia had become the community's most popular floor plan.
At approximately 3,870 A/C square feet, the Seychelles provides four bedrooms, five bathrooms, a den that can become an optional fifth bedroom, great room, club room, loft and two-car garage.
The Tahiti is currently NOMAR's largest advertised floor plan at approximately 3,940 A/C square feet. The design includes four bedrooms, five bathrooms, a den, family room, living room, formal dining area, loft and two-car garage.
The base specification level is another important factor when comparing NOMAR with other new construction.
According to GL Homes' current included-feature information, residences are designed with premium materials and finishes that might otherwise be upgrades in competing communities. Current advertised features include quartz countertops, frameless kitchen cabinetry with 42-inch upper cabinets, Wolf appliances, Sub-Zero refrigeration, wood-flooring selections and upgraded bathroom finishes.
Primary bathrooms may include features such as frameless-glass showers, freestanding tubs depending on the floor plan, quartz surfaces and Toto toilets.
Exterior and construction-related specifications currently advertised include:
GL Homes currently identifies video doorbell technology, front-facing cameras, a Z-Wave smart lock and Daikin One Touch thermostat among the included smart-home features. Exact specifications should always be confirmed against the contract and feature sheet for the individual residence.
NOMAR is no longer simply a future development.
GL Homes released early-move-in residences in May 2026, giving buyers the ability to consider homes that are substantially farther along than a traditional build-from-scratch purchase. Current builder inventory includes different construction stages, and availability can change quickly.
This gives buyers two distinct strategies:
Build from an available homesite.
This may provide greater control over selections and options, depending on construction deadlines and builder policies.
Purchase an early-move-in or inventory home.
This can shorten the timeline and provides greater certainty about the home's completed specification and final layout.
The better choice depends on timing, available homesites, builder incentives and how much customization matters to the buyer.
A particularly unusual component of NOMAR ownership is the lifestyle access currently being packaged with the homes.
GL Homes states that every homeowner receives membership to The Cove Club, a private waterfront social club in West Palm Beach. Current club amenities advertised by GL Homes include a resort-style pool, private beach overlooking the Intracoastal, dining, watersports, social events and the ability to arrive by boat.
The Cove Club component gives NOMAR buyers access to waterfront recreational amenities without requiring each residence to be directly waterfront or have a private dock.
Buyers should confirm the membership agreement, ongoing dues, included privileges, transfer provisions and any costs that remain the homeowner's responsibility before purchasing.
GL Homes also currently includes an Equinox membership with every NOMAR home.
The nearest Equinox location is at CityPlace in West Palm Beach, which GL Homes describes as approximately three miles south of the community. The club provides fitness equipment, classes, training, recovery and wellness services.
This makes NOMAR's amenity model notably different from a conventional master-planned community.
Rather than centering the neighborhood around a large private HOA clubhouse complex, current builder marketing emphasizes access to established off-site luxury lifestyle and wellness facilities. Buyers comparing NOMAR with communities featuring extensive on-site amenities should evaluate which structure better matches how they expect to use the amenities.
Current Echo Fine Properties community data identifies The Estates at NOMAR as not gated. Buyers should therefore avoid assuming that the community has the same security or access structure found in some larger GL Homes developments.
This is an important distinction because NOMAR is designed around greater connectivity to its surrounding West Palm Beach neighborhood rather than functioning as an isolated suburban enclave.
GL Homes has advertised an HOA fee of approximately $545 per month in its community marketing materials. Builder-published social materials indicate the fee includes community landscaping and irrigation and certain home lawn-maintenance services. Because association budgets and services can change, buyers should confirm the current amount and complete list of inclusions directly from the association documents before signing a purchase agreement.
This is especially important when comparing NOMAR with luxury communities where HOA dues may also fund staffed gates, clubhouses, fitness centers, pools, racquet facilities or extensive private common areas.
NOMAR is part of a larger transformation taking place along West Palm Beach's northern waterfront.
Current plans for the surrounding Northwood Marina District contemplate additional residential development, dining, retail, waterfront experiences and redevelopment around the marina area. GL Homes characterizes the district as moving toward a more walkable waterfront destination.
That future development is part of NOMAR's potential appeal, but buyers should separate what exists today from what is proposed or under development.
Future restaurants, retail, marina improvements, public areas and adjacent projects can change in scope, schedule or design. The most prudent approach is to value the home based on current conditions while viewing future development as potential upside rather than a guaranteed outcome.

Buying directly from a builder is different from purchasing a typical resale property.
The builder's sales representatives work for the builder. Buyers can have their own real estate representation, but builder registration procedures may require the buyer's agent to be identified during the first visit, registration or initial contact.
Before selecting a NOMAR home, I recommend comparing:
A lower advertised base price does not necessarily mean the lower final purchase price. Homesite selection, options, upgrades, pool packages and financing decisions can materially affect the total investment.
As of August 19, 2026, GL Homes is advertising up to $75,000 in complimentary upgrades on select NOMAR homesites as part of a seasonal promotion. The builder states that conditions apply, including settlement and financing requirements for eligible buyers. Promotions can change or end at any time.
CMS recommendation: Keep this section near the bottom of the page and update or remove it when the promotion changes. Do not place "$75,000 incentive" in the permanent SEO title or meta description.
Buyers comparing new construction across Palm Beach County usually encounter large master-planned developments farther west or north.
NOMAR presents a different proposition.
Its advantages are less about the number of amenities inside the subdivision and more about combining:
A buyer deciding between NOMAR and a larger gated development should therefore focus on lifestyle priorities rather than simply comparing square footage and price.

As NOMAR progresses from builder sales into a community with occupied and eventually resale homes, determining market value will require more than comparing price per square foot.
Future resale values may be influenced by:
Early resale owners may also compete directly against GL Homes.
If the builder is offering a new home with financing assistance, complimentary upgrades or other incentives, a resale listing needs to account for the true economic value of those promotions rather than comparing list prices alone.
Automated valuations can also struggle with newly built communities because they may not properly account for homesite premiums, structural options, builder upgrades or limited comparable sales.
