Martin County sits on Florida's Treasure Coast, just north of Palm Beach County. It kept the small fishing village feel while everything around it grew. You get quiet beaches, the Intracoastal, the St. Lucie River, and an outdoor lifestyle close to year round.
Homes range from oceanfront estates on Hutchinson and Jupiter Island to golf and country club living inland, riverfront houses, and family neighborhoods with strong schools. The pace is slower than Palm Beach County, and a lot of people move here for exactly that.
A few local signatures: the Florida Oceanographic Coastal Center on Hutchinson Island, the trails and history of Jonathan Dickinson State Park, the beaches at Stuart and Hutchinson Island, and a downtown Stuart night out for dinner and live music on the water.
Sailfish Point, Sewall's Point, Mariner Sands, The Florida Club, Harbour Ridge, Willoughby, Piper's Landing, Hammock Creek, Martin Downs, North River Shores, plus the towns of Stuart, Palm City, Jensen Beach, and Hobe Sound.
Mariner Sands, The Florida Club, Harbour Ridge, and Willoughby are among the favorites, with Piper's Landing and Hammock Creek rounding out the options. We will help you weigh the membership feel, the fees, and how much you will actually use the club.
Palm City and the Martin Downs communities are popular for their schools and space, along with North River Shores near Stuart and parts of Jensen Beach. Tell us your kids' ages and we will line up the right area and school zone.
Yes. Downtown Stuart is one of the most walkable spots on this stretch of coast, with green markets, live music, local dining, and the riverfront. It gives the county a real town center.
As a rule you get more home and more land for the money here than in Jupiter, especially off the ocean. Oceanfront on Hutchinson and Jupiter Island still runs high. We will pull recent sales side by side so you can see it for your price range.
Often yes, but it depends on the home. The boat you keep comes down to dock depth and bridge clearance to the inlet, and we will check both on any house before you fall for it.
