Weston is a master-planned city in western Broward County, incorporated in 1996, and most of its neighborhoods sit behind a gate. Some have a manned guardhouse staffed around the clock; others use resident-access gates with roving patrols. This guide walks through Weston's best-known gated communities, from golf-course homes in Weston Hills to acre-plus equestrian estates in Windmill Ranch, with a link to each neighborhood's full page and its current listings.
Guard-gated · Golf
About 32 homes for sale, roughly $1.1M to $2.6M
Weston's largest guard-gated community wraps around two 18-hole championship golf courses and is made up of more than 30 individual neighborhoods. Club membership is optional, so buyers can enjoy the guardhouse security, lakes and manicured common areas without joining. See the Club at Weston Hills and Weston golf homes.
Guard-gated · Estates
About 6 homes for sale, roughly $2.9M to $7.9M
Weston's original estate enclave, first built out in the mid-1980s, with homes on one acre and more set along a network of lakes and lagoons. Horses are permitted, and the 24-hour guardhouse keeps the community private and quiet.
Gated · Acre lots
Lakefront estates, frequently listed above $3.5M
A smaller gated enclave next to Windmill Ranch, often confused with it, offering large lakefront custom homes on roughly an acre. It currently holds some of the highest asking prices in Weston.
Gated · Estates
Custom estates, with recent listings up to about $3.5M
An upscale gated community of custom single-family estates on generous homesites, many backing to lakes or preserve, for buyers who want estate scale with a smaller-community feel.
Guard-gated · New construction
About 14 homes for sale, roughly $2.4M to $4M
Weston's modern-architecture enclave off Griffin Road, with newly built contemporary homes, private pools and a staffed gate. It is the place to look for a newer luxury home without the age of Weston's 1990s-era stock.
Guard-gated · Clubhouse
About 8 homes for sale, roughly $885K to $1.8M
A gated community of about 655 Mediterranean-inspired homes laid out around large lakes, with a resort-style clubhouse, fitness center, pool and courts. A popular choice for families wanting newer (2000s) construction.
Guard-gated · Family resort
About 28 homes for sale, roughly $625K to $1.6M
One of Weston's most family-oriented gated communities, with a manned gate, a large clubhouse, multiple pools and water slides, mini golf, sports courts and walking paths across its lakeside neighborhoods. See also recent Savanna sales.
Guard-gated · Clubhouse
About 12 homes for sale in the area, roughly $650K to $1.5M

Guard-gated · Lakefront

Three guard-gated enclaves, Pelican Landings, Egret Landings and Mallard Landings, with larger single-family homes, lakes and relatively modest HOA dues.

Small gated islands of Mediterranean-style homes set among inland lakes, including Camellia Island, Maple Island, Jasmine Island and Orchid Island, a gated enclave of about 129 homes.
