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.”

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.

The Meadows at Martin Downs is a family-friendly gated residential community very well situated in Palm City, Florida. There are 832 homes consisting of single-family homes, duplexes, 4-unit townhouses, and 4-unit patio homes. The Meadows community is divided into 6 distinct villages which are named: Greenwich, Lakemont, Mayflower, Brighton, Foxboro, and Ridgewood.

The Meadows in Palm City Florida
Google Earth image

The Meadows is a guard-gated community with round-the-clock security.  Residents of the meadows enjoy a large heated swimming pool, a tot pool, a children’s playground adjacent to the pool, basketball, 3 lighted tennis courts, a horseshoe pit, and 2 bocce courts.  Near the entrance of the Meadows, between the gatehouse and the fountain, is a 2200-square-foot recreation center, known as The Meadows House, which also houses the administrative offices of The Meadows Homeowners Association.

The Meadows came into existence through the efforts of local developer Peter Cumming who submitted the plans for the community around 1988.  Shortly thereafter, Burg and DiVosta (soon to be just DiVosta) began developing the land in the area called Martin Downs for the soon-to-be-constructed villages of The Meadows.

Meadows History:

Divosta started construction on the site known as The Meadows in 1988 by building two structures from which to sell. One was a single-family home (Hampton) in what is now known as Greenwich Village, and the other was a four-unit Town-Home building (Stamford) in what is now known as Lakemont Village. Both types of homes were started in The Meadows at about the same time in 1988.  DiVosta completed the Meadows in 1993 and turned the administration and running of the community to The Meadows Homeowners Association which runs the community through elected officers as well as full-time support staff.

HOA fees in the meadows vary by the type of home, so please look at the listing details view when checking available Meadows homes for sale.  The Meadows is not age-restricted and currently allows up to 2 large pets.  Rentals are also allowed with some restrictions.

Children currently attend the Bessey Creek Elementary School, the Hidden Oaks Middle School; and the Martin County High School.
