There are 832 homes consisting of single-family homes, duplexes, 4-unit townhouses, and 4-unit patio homes.

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.

Recent sales in 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.

St. Lucie County Townhouses and Condos 2023 2nd Quarter Report

For the 2nd quarter of 2023, the Saint Lucie Count townhouses and condo real estate market continued the trend of reduced sales volume.
