The Pines and Windemere real estate in Jensen Beach FL

Some residents have stated, “Sending our children to Felix A. Williams is like having a private school in our own backyard.”  And as far as Jensen Beach High School: “Our Kids can walk to the new High School”.

In addition to the best schools, The Pines is located just a little over 2 miles from the beautiful unspoiled beaches of Hutchinson Island, a fantastic public golf course (Eagle Marsh) is right next door, and a regional park that offers little league and soccer and many family attractions.  “we can play golf without the high cost just next door.”

The Pines and Windemere real estate in Jensen Beach FL

For others, the best shops of the Treasure Coast Mall with a new 13-plex theater are within walking distance, and grocery stores are located nearby.

World-famous fishing is just a ride away. Stuart is known as the “Sailfish capital of the world.”

The Pines

Adjacent to the Pines is the smaller community of Windemere and the Preserves. 

Neither the Pines nor Windemere offers the amenities of a community pool or clubhouse which keeps the HOA fees quite low at $55.00 and $60.00 a month respectively.

The Pines
Some Extra History:

When these developments were planned the original intent was to combine the two for ease of access.  However, the County decided to nix these plans as they felt that out-of-area residents would use Windemere Drive as a shortcut between US-1 and Jensen Beach, causing a lot of congestion in this community.
