Hunters Run Homes for Sale, Boynton Beach
If you have just seen a Hunters Run condominium asking less than a used car, this page is the explanation. It is not a mistake, it is not a scam, and the listing is real. Hunters Run is a mandatory equity membership community. The price on the listing buys the residence. It does not buy the membership, which is a separate and substantial obligation that every owner must take on. Once you understand that, the pricing here makes complete sense.
Hunters Run is a guard-gated private club community in the Boynton Beach 33436 zip code, built largely between 1980 and 1987, with a newer section added around 2001. It is one of the largest club communities in Palm Beach County, and it is not age-restricted, which surprises people who assume every large club community in west Boynton is.
The market here, and why it looks strange
A snapshot taken November 4, 2026. Figures are rounded and move with the market.
| | On the market | Closed, past 12 months |
|---|
| Number of listings | Twenty-nine | One hundred ten |
| Asking prices | From under $20 thousand to about $1.2 million | From nominal amounts to roughly $1.1 million |
| Asking price per square foot | Around $110 | Around $145 |
| Typical size | Around 1,700 square feet | Around 2,000 square feet |
A note on the closed figures: the MLS feed reports the asking price attached to a closed listing rather than the recorded sale price. The closed column tells you what those homes were asking. For what a specific address actually sold for, ask and I will pull the public record.
What you are actually buying
Two separate costs, and the listing price is only one of them
Every residence at Hunters Run carries a mandatory club membership. Buying here means paying for the real estate and, separately, buying into the club through an equity contribution, then paying annual dues on top of that for as long as you own. The club obligation routinely runs into the tens of thousands of dollars before you have paid a single month of dues.
That is why a 1,600 square foot condominium can be listed in the low five figures. The seller is not giving the property away out of generosity. They are pricing the residence to move because the buyer is simultaneously signing up for the much larger obligation attached to it. In a very real sense the market here prices the total cost of ownership, not the house.
What the club side includes
Hunters Run operates fifty-four holes of golf across three eighteen-hole courses, along with tennis and pickleball courts, a clubhouse, pools, a fitness centre, a salon and spa, and multiple dining venues. Membership categories cover golf, racquet sports and social use, so the obligation is not identical for every owner. Which category attaches to which residence, and what it costs, is the first question to ask about any specific listing.
It is a genuine value if the club is the point
For someone who intends to play golf several times a week and eat at the club regularly, the arithmetic here is unusually good. You are buying into a substantial private club at a fraction of what comparable club access costs elsewhere in Palm Beach County, and the residence comes close to free. For someone who wants a quiet condominium in Boynton Beach and does not care about golf, this is among the most expensive ways to buy one. The community is excellent at serving the first buyer and badly suited to the second.
One hundred ten closings in a year is a lot of turnover
Against twenty-nine listings, that is close to four sales per available home. A community this size with this much movement means inventory is genuinely available and you are not waiting for something to come up. It also means you will have plenty of comparables, which matters more than usual here because the residence price alone tells you so little.
The sub-communities
Hunters Run is an umbrella. What you buy is a home in one of its sections, and they differ in product type, age and fees.
| Section | Typical product |
|---|
| Southport | Condominium and townhome |
| Stratford | Condominium and townhome |
| Eastgate and Eastgate II | Condominium |
| Westgate | Condominium |
| Cambridge I and II | Condominium, larger floor plans |
| The Woods | Single family |
| Isles at Hunters Run | Single family, the newest section |
Before you write an offer here
- Get the current equity buy-in figure and the annual dues in writing from the club, not from a listing remark and not from a previous owner. Both change.
- Ask which membership category is attached to the specific residence and whether you can change it later.
- Ask directly whether any portion of the equity is refundable when you sell, under exactly what conditions, and whether the club can change those terms. Get the answer in writing. This is the single most important question at any mandatory equity community and it is the one buyers most often skip.
- Add the capital contribution to your closing costs. A one-time contribution at closing is common at clubs of this type and it is separate from the equity.
- Price the total monthly carry, association fee plus club dues plus taxes plus insurance, before you fall in love with a listing price.
- Review the reserve study and assessment history for the specific section. These are 1980s buildings working through Florida's current inspection and reserve requirements.
- Check the rental and pet rules for the section, and the buyer approval process, which applies here.
Frequently asked questions
Why are Hunters Run condos so cheap?
Because the listing price covers only the residence. Every home at Hunters Run carries a mandatory club membership, bought through a separate equity contribution and carried through annual dues. That obligation commonly runs into the tens of thousands of dollars. Sellers price the residence low because the buyer is taking on the much larger club commitment attached to it.
Is membership at Hunters Run mandatory?
Yes. Every residence carries a required club membership. Categories include golf, racquet sports and social, so the cost is not identical for every owner. Confirm which category applies to the specific property and what it currently costs, in writing, before you make an offer.
Is Hunters Run a 55+ community?
No. Hunters Run is not age-restricted, which distinguishes it from many of the other large club communities in west Boynton Beach. Several nearby communities are age-restricted, so check each one individually rather than assuming.
What amenities does Hunters Run have?
Fifty-four holes of golf across three eighteen-hole courses, tennis and pickleball courts, a clubhouse, pools, a fitness centre, a salon and spa, and multiple dining venues, inside a guard-gated community.
What does it really cost to own at Hunters Run?
Budget for four things, not one: the purchase price of the residence, the one-time club equity contribution, any capital contribution due at closing, and the recurring monthly carry of association fees plus club dues plus taxes and insurance. The residence price is frequently the smallest of them.
Is the Hunters Run equity contribution refundable?
That depends on the club's current terms, and it is exactly the question to put in writing before you buy. Ask whether any portion is returned on resale, under what conditions, and whether the club retains the right to change those terms. Do not rely on what a listing remark or a previous owner tells you.
Where is Hunters Run?
In the Boynton Beach 33436 zip code, west of Interstate 95. Most of the community was built between 1980 and 1987, with the Isles section added around 2001.
