Everton Floor Plans Explained (2026): Sizes, Layouts, and Which One Fits

Everton Floor Plans Explained (2026): Sizes, Layouts, and Which One Fits
Quick answer Everton in Lantana has two floor plans, the 1,550 sq ft Latitude II from the high $450s and the 1,750 sq ft Nautical with a flex room from the low $500s, and the right pick comes down to whether you need a dedicated home office or just want the lowest monthly payment into new construction.

If you’re comparing Everton floor plans, here’s the short version: Pulte Homes built this gated townhome community in Lantana around exactly two layouts, the Latitude II and the Nautical, and the difference between them isn’t cosmetic. One is built for a buyer who wants the lowest possible monthly payment into brand-new construction. The other is built for a buyer who needs a dedicated workspace or a little breathing room for guests. Neither plan is a bad choice at this price point in Palm Beach County. But they’re not interchangeable, and picking the wrong one for your actual life is the kind of mistake that shows up two years later when you’re stepping over boxes in a room that was never supposed to be storage.

This is the plan-by-plan breakdown: real square footage, real room counts, and who each layout actually fits, whether you’re a right-sizer coming out of a bigger house, a multigenerational household stacking generations under one roof, or an investor running the numbers on a rental.

Everton Floor Plans at a Glance

Everton sits east of the Florida Turnpike in Lantana, about 19 minutes from downtown West Palm Beach, with easy access to I-95 for anyone commuting north or south through the county. It’s a gated community, which matters more than people think when you’re comparing new construction. Pulte controls the amenities, the landscaping, and the overall look of the streetscape, so what you see in the model is close to what you’ll see in five years.

Both Everton floor plans share the same bones:

  • 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms
  • 1-car garage
  • Two stories (bedrooms up, living space down)
  • HOA around $199/month, which includes high-speed internet
  • No CDD (Community Development District fee)

That last point is worth sitting with for a second. A lot of the newer master-planned communities out west in Palm Beach County carry CDD debt on top of HOA dues, which quietly adds hundreds of dollars to the real monthly cost of the home. Everton doesn’t have one. That’s a meaningful part of the math here, and it’s covered in more detail in the Everton Review (2026) if you want the full pricing and fee breakdown before you get into layouts.

Where the two plans split is size, layout flow, and who they’re built for.

Latitude II: The Entry Plan Breakdown

The Latitude II is Everton’s smaller, more affordable plan, and it’s the one most first-time new construction buyers in this price range gravitate toward.

The numbers:

  • 1,550 square feet
  • 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms
  • 1-car garage
  • Priced from roughly $458K

The layout: Ground floor is the open-concept living space, kitchen, dining, and living room flowing into each other, with the garage and a half bath tucked in. Upstairs holds all three bedrooms, including the primary suite, plus the laundry. There’s no dedicated flex space in this plan. What you see is what you get: a clean, efficient three-bedroom footprint with no wasted square footage.

That efficiency is the whole selling point. At 1,550 square feet, the Latitude II is Pulte’s lowest-cost way into a new, gated community this close to West Palm Beach. You’re not paying for a bonus room you might not use. You’re paying for three real bedrooms, a modern kitchen, impact windows, and a builder warranty, at a price that undercuts most resale product of similar age and location in Palm Beach County.

Who the Latitude II fits:

Right-sizers. If you’re coming out of a 2,800 square foot single-family home because the kids are gone and you’re tired of maintaining a yard, the Latitude II is enough house. Two bedrooms for guests or a home gym, one primary suite, and a garage that isn’t shared with a workshop’s worth of stuff you no longer need. The lower price point also means a lower HOA-plus-mortgage number, which is usually the actual goal when someone says they want to “downsize.”

First-time buyers stretching into new construction. At $458K, this is roughly as low as new construction gets in this corridor of Palm Beach County right now. Buyers who’d otherwise be looking at a 15- or 20-year-old resale townhome for similar money are getting a brand-new one instead, with a builder warranty and none of the deferred maintenance a home from the early 2010s starts carrying.

Who should skip it: anyone who works from home full time and needs a door that closes on a workday, and anyone regularly hosting overnight guests. There’s no room in this plan built for either.

Nautical: The Flex-Space Upgrade

The Nautical is Everton’s larger plan, and the extra 200 square feet goes almost entirely toward one thing: a dedicated flex room.

The numbers:

  • 1,750 square feet
  • 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, plus a flex room
  • 1-car garage
  • Priced in the low $500s, generally under $550K

The layout: Same basic bones as the Latitude II, open living space downstairs, three bedrooms upstairs, but the Nautical adds a flex room that most buyers turn into a home office, and some use as a formal dining space or a playroom depending on the household. It’s the room that makes this a “work from home” floor plan instead of just a “live here” floor plan.

Who the Nautical fits:

Remote and hybrid workers. This is the plan Stanley points people toward when the first question out of their mouth is “where would I put a desk.” A flex room with a door is worth real money to someone doing video calls five days a week, and it’s the single biggest functional difference between the two Everton floor plans.

Multigenerational households, with a caveat. The Nautical’s flex room can work as a temporary bedroom or a private space for a grown child or aging parent, but it’s not a full ADU (accessory dwelling unit) setup, there’s no separate entrance or attached bath. For light multigenerational use, an adult child home for a stretch, a parent staying for a season, it works. For a permanent two-household living arrangement, most buyers in that situation will outgrow it and should be looking at single-family product elsewhere in Palm Beach County instead.

Buyers thinking about resale flexibility. A flex room broadens the buyer pool when you eventually sell. Not everyone needs a home office today, but “the extra room” sells itself to whoever does, and it’s an easier feature to market than “the smaller floor plan was cheaper.”

Which Everton Floor Plan Fits a Right-Sizer

Right-sizers (not always downsizers, sometimes it’s a lateral move for lifestyle reasons) tend to do best with the Latitude II unless they’re bringing a home office need with them. The math is straightforward: lower purchase price, lower total monthly cost with the same $199 HOA and zero CDD, and a floor plan that doesn’t ask you to maintain space you won’t use.

The exception is the right-sizer who’s still working, even part-time or consulting. If that’s you, the flex room in the Nautical earns its keep fast. A closed door between “work” and “home” is worth more than the price difference once you’ve actually lived without one.

Which Everton Floor Plan Fits a Multigenerational Household

Everton isn’t purpose-built multigenerational housing, and it’s worth being honest about that rather than stretching the pitch. Neither plan has a separate entrance, a second kitchen, or an attached bath tied to a non-primary bedroom. What the Nautical offers is flexibility for shorter stints, not a permanent second household.

If true multigenerational living (a parent moving in long-term, an adult child with a family of their own) is the actual plan, it’s worth cross-shopping single-family inventory elsewhere in Palm Beach County rather than forcing it into a 1,750 square foot townhome. The Is New Construction Worth It in Palm Beach County in 2026? breakdown covers how to weigh townhome product like Everton against single-family new construction when household size is the deciding factor.

Which Everton Floor Plan Fits an Investor

For an investor, the calculus is different from an owner-occupant, and it usually points toward the Latitude II.

Lower basis, lower risk. At $458K versus low $500s, the Latitude II has a lower entry cost, which matters more to an investor running rent-to-mortgage math than it does to someone planning to live in the home for a decade.

HOA and no CDD keep carrying costs predictable. A $199/month HOA that includes internet is a clean, quotable number for a rental listing, and the absence of a CDD means no surprise increases tied to bond assessments down the line. That predictability is worth more to an investor than square footage.

The flex room doesn’t rent for a premium here. Renters in this price band are typically not paying extra for a home office the way an owner-occupant would value one. The Nautical’s flex room is a real value-add for a buyer who’ll use it daily, but it doesn’t translate one-to-one into higher achievable rent, which makes the Latitude II the more efficient investment unit.

One flag for any investor considering new construction townhomes in Florida right now: this product category is competing against an aging condo and townhome resale stock dealing with the fallout from Florida’s post-Surfside structural reserve requirements. Buildings built decades ago are hitting owners with five- and six-figure special assessments to fund reserves that should’ve been funded all along. New construction like Everton sidesteps that risk entirely, no deferred structural liability, no reserve study surprises, which is a real selling point when you eventually list either the Latitude II or the Nautical for resale or explain the value to a prospective tenant.

The Real Value: Price Per Square Foot and HOA Math

Run the numbers side by side and the value comparison gets clearer.

Latitude II: $458K for 1,550 square feet works out to roughly $295 per square foot, before incentives, closing cost credits, or rate buydowns Pulte runs periodically.

Nautical: call it $525K (mid-range of the low $500s) for 1,750 square feet, roughly $300 per square foot.

The per-square-foot cost is nearly identical between the two plans. That’s the real finding here: you’re not paying a premium for the Nautical’s extra size, you’re paying close to the same rate per square foot and getting a genuinely useful flex room as the difference. That changes the decision. It’s not “cheap plan versus expensive plan,” it’s “do you need the flex room or not,” because you’re not being punished on a price-per-square-foot basis either way.

Where the plans do diverge is the all-in monthly number. A roughly $65K-$75K difference in purchase price, financed at current rates, adds a real amount to a monthly mortgage payment, even with HOA and no CDD held constant across both plans. For a buyer stretching to qualify, that difference is the whole decision. For a buyer who’s comfortably qualified either way, the flex room usually wins.

Everton vs Other Palm Beach New Construction

Everton isn’t the only new construction townhome product in the Lantana-to-Delray corridor, and it’s worth knowing where it sits. Compared to gated townhome communities further west or south in the county, Everton’s no-CDD structure is the standout differentiator, plenty of newer Palm Beach County communities carry CDD debt that adds $100 to $250 a month on top of HOA, and buyers frequently underestimate that cost until they’re deep into a mortgage application.

For a side-by-side look at how a comparable Pulte-adjacent new construction community stacks up further south, the Agave Boca in Boca Raton guide is a useful comparison point, particularly if you’re cross-shopping Lantana against Boca Raton for commute time, price, or school zoning.

And if you haven’t nailed down whether Lantana itself is the right city before you get down to floor plans, start with the Lantana, FL Real Estate Market 2026 overview or the Buyer’s Guide to Lantana, both of which cover the commute corridors, nearby school zoning, and how Lantana prices compare to neighboring Lake Worth and Boynton Beach.

How to Tour Everton and What to Ask

If you’re heading out to see the models, a few things worth asking on-site that go beyond what’s in the brochure:

  1. Ask about current incentives. Pulte runs rate buydowns and closing cost credits that shift monthly, and they can move the effective price on either plan by thousands of dollars.
  2. Ask which lots are left for each plan. Latitude II and Nautical inventory doesn’t move at the same pace, and lot premiums (corner lots, lots backing to green space) vary between the two.
  3. Walk both models even if you think you know which one you want. The flex room in the Nautical reads differently in person than it does on a spec sheet. Some buyers walk in sure they want the Latitude II and leave sure they need the flex room. It goes the other way too.
  4. Bring your own agent. The on-site team at Everton represents Pulte, not you. Having your own buyer’s agent costs you nothing extra (the builder pays the commission) and gets you someone negotiating on your side, not the builder’s.

For the full rundown on pricing tiers, HOA specifics, and what the community amenities actually include, the Everton in Lantana: The New Construction Guide covers that ground in more depth, and the Everton community page has the current model schedule and site details.

The Bottom Line on Everton Floor Plans

Two plans, one real decision: do you need a dedicated flex room or not. The Latitude II at 1,550 square feet and roughly $458K is the more efficient buy for right-sizers, first-time new construction buyers, and investors who want the lowest carrying cost with no CDD and a $199 HOA that includes internet. The Nautical at 1,750 square feet and low $500s earns its higher price with a genuinely useful flex room, and it’s the better fit for remote workers, buyers who host regularly, or anyone thinking about resale flexibility down the line.

Neither plan is overbuilt or underbuilt for what it’s trying to do. The reality is most buyers already know which one they need once they’re honest about how they actually live, work, and host. The plan comparison is really just a mirror for that.
