3664 Alder Drive #D1

THIS PROPERTY QUALIFIES FOR $10,000 SMART START GRANT. Let me tell you about this first-floor condo on Military Trail--the kind of place that makes sense when you understand how West Palm Beach actually works. Two assigned parking spaces (trust me, that matters), in-unit laundry, tile floors throughout, and a 2024 roof with the assessment already paid. You're two minutes from Keiser University, five minutes from catching Astros or Nationals spring training at the ballpark, eight minutes to Rosemary Square, and fifteen minutes to Palm Beach Municipal Beach. I-95 access in five minutes when you need to get anywhere fast. Palm Beach Atlantic is close enough that parents buying for college kids actually look at this property. Gated community, screened balcony, accordion shutters & pool. How This Part of West Palm Beach Actually Works 3664 Alder Drive sits in Palm Club West Village the West Palm Beach condo community that actually kept its act together. 2024 roof with paid assessment. No surprise bills waiting in the mail. What makes this location work: you can get anywhere in Palm Beach County in under 25 minutes, surrounded by everything that makes daily life convenient without being expensive. What's Actually Close Two minutes: Keiser University West Palm Beach campus Five minutes: FITTEAM Ballpark (Astros/Nationals spring training, Palm Beach Cardinals year-round), I-95 access northbound or southbound Eight minutes: Rosemary Square (shopping, dining, entertainment) Ten minutes: Clematis Street downtown (Hullabaloo, Rhythm Cafe, nightlife scene) Twelve minutes: Northwood Village (Kapow Noodle Bar, Subculture Coffee, local arts corridor) Fifteen minutes: Palm Beach Municipal Beach via Southern Boulevard, Palm Beach Atlantic University, Palm Beach International Airport You're not "close to everything" in the marketing sense. You're actually positioned where commute times stay reasonable regardless of work location. The College Housing Angle Parents buy condos like this for kids attending Keiser (two minutes away) or Palm Beach Atlantic (fifteen minutes). The math: pay $1,200/month rent for four years ($57,600 out the door), or buy this for $200K, house your student, sell when they graduate. Even if values stay flat, you recover $40K+ compared to rent. The HOA's 2-year rental restriction protects this you're not surrounded by investor units rented to rotating students who trash the place. After year two, you can rent the second bedroom or convert to full rental if that makes sense. Beach Access That Actually Works Fifteen minutes to Palm Beach Municipal Beach. Not "close to the beach" where that means 45 minutes in traffic. Actual fifteen-minute drive, cross the bridge, park, walk on sand. For snowbirds: you can leave at 8am, watch sunrise on the beach, grab breakfast, be home by 10am. Spontaneous beach afternoons without expedition planning. First-Floor Living (Why It Matters) Park your car, walk 30 feet on level ground, unlock your door. No stairs. No elevators. No waiting while your ice cream melts. Furniture delivery doesn't require negotiating stairwells. Movers roll your couch through the front door. First-floor works today and keeps working when mobility changes temporary injury, visiting family with accessibility needs, or just aging. For snowbirds in their 60s-70s, this determines whether you age in place or sell and downsize again in five years. Two Assigned Parking Spaces Most 1980s West Palm Beach condos gave each unit one space. That aged poorly. This unit has two assigned spaces. Your household gets reliable parking for two vehicles. Guests use designated guest parking without displacing residents. No parking logistics, no musical cars, no street parking hoping you don't get towed. For college students: mom and dad visit without parking crisis. For snowbirds: northern guests don't navigate complicated visitor procedures. Gated Community (What It Actually Does) Palm Club West Village uses controlled-access gating: Through-traffic doesn't cut through Visitors announce themselves or use resident codes Intern
