Townhome Development Proposed for Palm Beach County at 16301 Rembrandt Road, Loxahatchee, Florida

Arizona-based Meritage Homes has proposed a townhome development in Wellington – not far from Lion Country Safari.

The venture would comprise 206 townhomes, with lots measuring 1,800 to 2,100 square feet each. Each unit would feature a driveway and a 2-car garage. Communal amenities would include a resort-style swimming pool with cabanas, children’s playground, and several outdoor recreational areas. Another feature would be a 6.6-acre lake.

The South Florida Business Journal reports that the townhome development is part of a larger 258-acre site that was annexed into Wellington in 2024. It would also occupy six parcels and, if approved, would replace some single-family homes and plant nurseries. For the project to proceed, Meritage Homes must secure a rezoning approval that would redesignate the 30-acre site from single-family to residential E FLU.

The Real Deal reports that this region of Florida is seeing its share of single-family and townhome development, as it’s a rural area with more open space. A related project is Arden, a 2,300-home community near Wellington. Sources call it an “agrihood” because of its 5-acre farm that would allow residents to garden and harvest their own produce.

If brought to fruition, the townhome complex would occupy 16426, 16300, and 16350 Velazquez Road, plus 16421, 16275, and 16301 Rembrandt Road, Loxahatchee, Florida, 33470, in Palm Beach County.
