Tequesta home with private beach

Tequesta is Jupiter's sister city on the north side of the Jupiter Inlet.  Until very recently it was largely overlooked by home buyers since it had the connotation of being populated by mostly older residents, or as Rush Limbaugh calls them, "seasoned citizens".  And that might have been partially true.

Tequesta real estate was platted out in the 1970's so the home sites are larger and at one time it was a magnet for retirees.  Tequesta Country Club with its golf course was built as were homes on the Loxahatchee River.  Tequesta is surrounded by water on three sides and Jonathan Dickinson Park on the fourth so with limited land, no sprawling communities like PGA National could be built.

Although Tequesta waterfront homes are primarily along the Loxahatchee River and the finger canals that come off it, the Village also faces the Intracoastal Waterway and homes here look eastward to Jupiter Island.  These homes have a great location and some of the residents have installed private beaches that look like they came from a calendar of the South Pacific.  Take a look at the one below.

Tequesta waterfront home


This house is north of the Village of Tequesta and has nearly no neighbors.  But, you might ask, what about security gates and guards?  Well, there is very little crime of any sort here.  Once in awhile someone will leave their car unlocked and something gets taken but that's about it.

So if you are looking for an ideal waterfront location without paying high club fees, you might consider homes for sale in Tequesta.  The area has been discovered by younger families and gentrification is taking places, or another way to look at it is your real estate investment is safe here.

You can see all Tequesta homes for sale at Coastal Florida Real Estate.  Every home listed for sale and every pictures is there in real time and no other site has any more or more current data.  And the site doesn't have a lot of fluff so it loads very fast.
