About The Meadows Homes in Palm City Florida:

 

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.

Entrance to the Meadows

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, 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 a 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.

The Florida Single Family Home sales continued with strong activity into February.  Closed sales were up by 9.1% (were up by 17.9% in December). New sales under contract (new pending sales) were up by 12.5% (were up by 12.4% in January).

Prices were also up for February .  The median sales price rose by 8.0% (it was up by 5.9% in January). The average sales price was up by 7.9% (it was up by 6.3% last month).

The inventory of available homes for sale decreased by 19.1% from last year.  This represents a 3.3 months supply of inventory as Florida remains in a seller’s market with the advantage for sellers. (February 2019 had a 4.3 months supply)  A balanced market favoring neither buyers or sellers is considered to be one with a 6 to 7 month supply of inventory.  Inventory continues to decrease which is putting pressure on rising prices and lower sales volume.
