Andover is a community of 158 homes in Delray Beach, Palm Beach County, built between 1987 and 2018 (median 1993), with a median living area of about 2,908 square feet. 87% of parcels are homesteaded, the owner-occupancy proxy in the Florida DOR assessment roll (2025 roll, public records).

Andover is a 158-home enclave in Delray Beach where the typical home was built in 1993 and transactions close in three weeks when the pricing aligns with condition and the narrow set of recent comparables.

The $1.5M median and $538 per-square-foot figure represent a snapshot shaped by just seven closings—a sample size that makes every transaction influential. Andover spans three decades of construction, so two homes of identical square footage can trade at very different prices depending on kitchen, bath, and mechanical updates. Buyers should budget for renovation or be prepared to pay a premium for turnkey condition; sellers must recognize that deferred maintenance costs them leverage in a market this tight.

With 87% of owners claiming homestead exemption, Andover functions as a primary-residence neighborhood, not a second-home or investor cluster. That tenure shows in maintenance standards and continuity, but it also means inventory arrives sporadically—typically through life events rather than speculative churn. The 22-day median time on market confirms that well-prepared listings find their buyer quickly; homes that linger are usually fighting price, condition, or both.

The 25% year-over-year increase and 178% gain since 2012 reflect regional appreciation, not Andover-specific scarcity. Palm Beach County's broader run has lifted all neighborhoods in this tier, so these figures tell you about the macro environment, not about Andover's unique value proposition. When inventory is this lean and comparables this few, your agent's grasp of the last handful of sales—and the story behind each one—is the entire game.

In a 158-home neighborhood where seven closings set the narrative, you need a broker who knows which comps are noise and which are signal—and who will walk you away from a deal when the numbers don't work. Momentum's analysts track condition-adjusted pricing and can tell you whether that kitchen remodel justifies the ask or whether you're paying twice for someone else's taste. We represent the transaction, not the trophy, and in markets this thin that clarity is the difference between a sound purchase and an expensive mistake.
