About Villa
Rica
Villa Rica, located between Federal Highway (US-1) and the Intracoastal Waterway, is a low-rise and coastal Boca Raton neighborhood with mid-century ranch homes and palm-lined streets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Palmetto Park Road at Federal Highway, where sidewalk patios, galleries, and independent eateries set a polished, walkable rhythm. Mizner Park anchors nearby with its open-air cultural campus and evening foot traffic. The Boca Raton Museum of Art and the Mizner Park Amphitheater add a steady calendar of exhibits and performances. Streets trend quiet and residential, while the shoreline and Lake Wyman Park frame daily routes with water views and breezes. Architecture leans classic Florida, with updated facades, deep setbacks, and mature landscaping.
