Club memberships in most of these communities run well over $ 100,000 and joining is mandatory if you purchase a home. Only Jonathan's Landing retains the feature of optional membership to residents.
Another issue facing those longing to live on or with a view of the water is that many of these homes were built over 20 years ago and have the architectural features popular at the time. Even if upgraded sometime in the past, new owners could well be faced with the task of updating again.
That is unless you consider Bay Colony in Juno Beach.
Scenic Intracoastal views |
Heading south from Jupiter right along the coast you come to Juno Beach, just before North Palm Beach. Juno is the true beach lovers paradise since some of the condos are located right on the ocean, which is not allowed in Jupiter. But most of the condo units here are older so Bay Colony offers something not found in too many other places, new construction.
And on the 14 acre compound there is a clubhouse next to the pool with a very cool fire pit. On the fabulous winter nights this is certainly the place to be.
Inside the units, you will not find the outdated Mediterranean features or the really outdated, original features found in some of the condos along Celestial Drive. All the furnishings are light and tropical with a distinct West Indies feel.
Some of the units are being sold with docks which can be leased or sold to other Bay Colony residents. Ocean access is about 15 minutes away via Jupiter Inlet to the north or slightly further via the Palm Beach Inlet to the south.
If you are looking for some of the limited new construction in the area, let me show you Bay Colony. And if you are looking for the best deals, unlike many agents I grew up in this area and have lived in Jupiter for 25 years so I know the lifestyle here since I live it.
