About High Point of Delray
High Point Builders broke ground on the original phase in the early 1970s. New phases were added every year or two through the rest of the decade. The architecture stayed consistent across all seven builds. Each building holds four single-story attached condos in a traditional Florida ranch style. Most buildings are arranged in clusters of two to four around a central green space. Today, approximately 1,700 units make up the community across the seven phases. The 55+ age restriction has been enforced from the start under federal Fair Housing law and remains in place at every association today.

High Point of Delray Condos for Sale
When it comes to High Point of Delray condos for sale, three variables separate one unit from another: section, floor plan, and condition.

An untouched original can list near $135,000, while a fully renovated corner with a den can reach the high $280,000s. The community median has tracked near $170,000 at roughly $161 per square foot.

The Seven Sections of High Point of Delray
Each section carries identifying features that brokers and longtime residents recognize at a glance. The summaries below highlight the operational personality, signature amenities, and atmospheric character that set each association apart from its neighbors. Atmospheric character and recognizable amenities are often what shape a buyer's section preference more than price or floor plan.
High Point of Delray Section 1
Section 1 carries the visual signature of the entire community. The clubhouse sits on a lake with a central fountain that has been the recognizable landmark for residents and visitors since opening day. Buyers drawn to classic High Point character often start their search here. At 292 High Point Boulevard, the section office handles resident services and sale applications. Calendar updates, budgets, and board meeting notices are published on the Section 1 site.
High Point of Delray Section 2
Section 2 has built a reputation for fiscal discipline among High Point's seven associations. The design routes each building's residents to a shared laundry room rather than in-unit hookups. That choice has kept assessment costs lower over the long run, even as the section has reinvested in pool and clubhouse upgrades. The Section 2 site tracks resident announcements and board updates.
High Point of Delray Section 3
High Point of Delray Section 3
Section 3 is the social heart of the community. The resident calendar runs heavier here than anywhere else within High Point. Activities include morning exercise classes three days a week, monthly themed dinners, holiday cookouts, and a recurring Tuesday-night dice game tradition. Cornhole and bocce play is unusually well-attended compared with the rest of the property. The Section 3 site maintains the calendar and event sign-ups.
High Point of Delray Section 4
Section 4 runs the strictest sale process of the seven associations. Each unit must pass a board inspection and a City of Delray Beach permit review before a sale can close. That procedural rigor protects long-term values and gives buyers confidence that the building stock has been maintained to code. When the power goes out during storm season, the clubhouse runs on a backup generator and serves as a community gathering point. Sale application documents and hurricane preparation resources are published on the Section 4 site.
High Point of Delray Section 5
Section 5 sits along Club Drive West, tucked into the quieter interior of the High Point grid. On-site building laundry facilities serve each cluster rather than centralized common-area rooms. The interior placement keeps street noise low and gives residents direct walking access to nearby section pools and amenities. A steady mix of full-time owners and seasonal residents holds units here year over year.
High Point of Delray Section 6
Section 6 carries a more recreational personality than the other associations. The tiki area beside the pool is found nowhere else in High Point and gives the section its distinct outdoor gathering identity. Pickleball play runs heavier here than anywhere else in the community, with regular morning and evening matches on the courts. Internal updates run on Channel 63, the section's resident-managed information channel. The Section 6 site handles board contacts, sale applications, and amenity bookings.
High Point of Delray Section 7
Section 7 runs the most accessible amenity schedule of the seven associations. Courts and pool open seven days a week with no scheduled closures. Rentable private function space at the clubhouse hosts resident gatherings, small parties, and visiting family events. At 335 NW 48th Avenue, the section office handles in-person inquiries. Board contacts and resident communications are managed through the Section 7 site.
