Jupiter Beach Resort Overview

Coming to look at Jupiter homes for sale or a vacation?  Well, if AirBnB is not on your list, check out the Jupiter Beach Resort.

Located on the Atlantic Ocean at the eastern end of Indiantown Road, this gem is THE place to stay in the area.  Check out this video I found.



The location just south of the Jupiter Inlet is perfect!  You can walk to our restaurants along the Inlet waterfront across from the lighthouse.  And since Indiantown Road is the main E-W corridor through town, you have quick access to any home you might want to see.

You can see all Jupiter homes for sale using this link or for personal service contact me directly at 561-762-4073.  Unlike many agents I grew up in South Florida and have lived in Jupiter for the last 25 days so I can show you the best (and sometimes overlooked) locations and great deals.

The highly desirable Islands of Jupiter

On the north side of Jupiter, where the Loxahatchee River meets Tequesta, is the waterfront community known as the Islands of Jupiter.  Here along the banks of the tranquil river flowing out of Jonathan Dickinson State Park estate homes offer luxurious living.

This home closed yesterday at a price of $ 1,520,000.  It has just over 4,700 square feet of living space with 6 bedrooms and 5 1/2 baths.  It was on the market for 23 days.

The Islands of Jupiter occupy a very unique spot along our coast.  Tucked away in a corner of the river where Jupiter meets Tequesta and Jonathan Dickinson State Park, the area is especially quiet. But the ocean is just a short boat ride away down the river and out the Jupiter Inlet.

Most of the Islands of Jupiter homes have docks and boat lifts.  This means you can walk out your door and after a short boat ride of about 10 minutes, head out the Jupiter Inlet to the ocean or over to the Bahamas which are about 45 minutes away.

Homes for sale in the Islands of Jupiter range from about $1.5 million to near $3 million for a location with a long river view.  I recently sold a home on Reach Island for $2.4 million.

You might like to live here if you want the safety of a gated entrance, want to own a waterfront estate home and don't need the amenities of our country clubs like Admirals Cove.  Of course, you could always join Jonathan's Landing as a non-resident member and have full access to club benefits.

To learn more about our fabulous Coastal Florida lifestyle be sure to check out my You Tube channel where I have over 350 videos on the real estate market and Jupiter.  Or for personal service, contact me directly at 561-762-4073.

If you are looking at waterfront locations, let me show you the ones that would fit your lifestyle. Unlike most agents, I have lived here 25 years and know the market inside and out.  You can search for a home yourself and get the fastest results by visiting Coastal Florida Real Estate.

Jupiter Farms means backyard chickens

Just west of the Town of Jupiter, is Jupiter Farms. The 16 square-mile area has about 5000 residents. Folks moved to Jupiter Farms to get away from restrictive HOA covenants and the distractions of having neighbors very close.

Out in "the Farms" as the residents call it in there are no HOA restrictions so you can do exactly as you please. One of the things that people like to do is have backyard chickens. Backyard chickens are very popular these days and with the perfect weather we're having right now egg laying is on the rise.

Here's a selection of today's eggs.

Homes in Jupiter Farms are typically situated on 1.25 acres although there are some 1 acre parcels. The older homes tend to me made of frame construction and often have a pond which was created to get the fill needed for the home pad.

The homes built in the last 15 years don't have ponds since fill was trucked in.  And nobody builds frame houses anymore.

There is a myth that frame houses are not a sturdy but the real issue is that wood simply rots in our sub-tropical climate.  Purchase costs are lower but maintenance costs are higher.

If you are looking at Jupiter Farms homes for sale, give me a call at 561-762-4073.  I have lived here for 15 years, in Jupiter for 25 and have called Florida my home all my life.  As the ad says, "See it like a native!"

Recent sale in highly desirable North Fork

North Fork is a small and protected enclave of oak lined streets with some lake views.  Located on the upper north side of Jupiter, it is quiet and safe with good schools and slightly larger homes that might be found in the nearby neighborhood of The Shores.

This house just sold for $ 562,500 after 69 days on the market.  It features 2,577 square feet of living space spread out over 4 bedrooms and 3 baths.

Homes in North Fork and the surrounding neighborhoods like Cypress Cove and Loxahatchee Estates typically sell in this price range and feature Rutenberg style floor plans. And of course, like all Jupiter homes, the schools are all top quality.

To find the perfect location or the best deals in communities like this, contact me directly at 561-7672-4073.  Or if you want to search Jupiter homes for sale yourself, you can see them all and get the fastest search results by visiting Coastal Florida Real Estate.

Fabulous winter weather moves in one more time

Jupiter, along with most of coastal Florida, enjoys fabulous weather in the winter. However, the past couple of years we have missed out on the weather because it stayed so warm.

It seems like winter was replaced by "summer lite" with temperatures during the winter reaching levels not usually seen until late spring.  It causes the orange trees to bloom earlier than they should and never really kills the mosquitoes.

But this weekend we were treated to some of our special winter weather.  After the leading edge of the cold front came through on Thursday and Friday, it was followed by glorious days and nights.

 If you have been trapped by the unusually heavy snowfalls this year, give us a try down here.  Florida just passed New York as the third most populous state so the best spots are going quickly.  Of course, anyone who can live in Jupiter...does!

Our weather is one of the reasons this area, from Jupiter to Palm Beach Gardens, is called the Golf Capital of the World.  The area is populated with luxury clubs like Admirals Cove and Trump National Jupiter as well as prized public venues like the North Palm Beach Country Club.

If you are considering a home in this area, be sure to pick the right agent.  Unlike many other agents I have lived in Jupiter for 25 years and have always called Florida my home.  You can reach me directly at 561-7672-4073.
