Florida Single Family Homes March 2024 Market Report

The Florida Single Family Home real estate market had weaker sales activity when compared to last year. We continue to face headwinds with many economic uncertainties and high mortgage rates. Closed sales were down by 10.4% (were up by 2.2% in February). New sales under contract (new pending sales) were down by 3.0% (were down by 0.3% in February).

Prices increased for March when compared to last year.  The (year-to-year) median sales price was up by 3.9% (it was up by 5.1% in February). And, the average sales price was up by 10.1% (it was up by 5.7% last month).

About the Pines and Windemere in Jensen Beach FL:

The Pines and Windemere

Located adjacent to the new Jensen Beach High School, and Felix A. Williams Elementary School, among Martin County’s best schools, is only one reason why The Pines and Windemere communities are so desirable.

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.
