The Estuary of Stuart FL

The Estuary of Stuart Florida, located in North Stuart, Florida and often mistaken for being a part of Jensen Beach Florida is a gated community with a variety of homes ranging from condos to 1980’s vintage homes, to newer villas as well as waterfront homes with deep water docks.
The Estuary of Stuart Florida is very conveniently located on the banks of the North Fork of the Saint Lucie River, just minutes from the Treasure Coast Mall and the shopping and dining areas of the US-1 corridor in Jensen Beach.

Different sections of the Estuary include well appointed 2 and 3 bedroom condos with pool and lake views.  A select number of condos have mile wide river views of the Saint Lucie River.  An inland section of varying styles, sizes and shapes of homes built from the early 1980’s and also called River Shores Plantation. 

In 2002, a section of the Estuary was added with villas and smaller single family homes on Tillia Trail with their own community pool.  Larger single family homes were also added at this time along Estuary Court, Plumbago Trail and the western section of NW 21’st Terrace.  This section also boasts a community dock suitable for good sized vessels with ocean access just a few minutes away at the Saint Lucie Inlet.   Homes on Plumbago Trail also enjoy spectacular wide water views.  The Estuary is truly a wonderful place to call home.
