Coastal living in Southeast Florida
Neighboring the Indian River along Florida’s Treasure Coast, the community of Indian River Estates offers a laid-back suburban feel only 6 miles from downtown Fort Pierce. Residents here often spend their time fishing off the Indian River coastline at Savannas Recreation Area, making day trips to the sandy beaches on nearby Hutchinson Island and taking advantage of the plentiful amenities found along U.S. Route 1. This community is distinctly Floridian, home to an at-ease lifestyle that is witnessed by the slow pace of traffic – which makes for safe biking and jogging – local family-owned eateries like Big Worm's BBQ, and unique mailboxes – ranging in size and shape from flamingos to whales to more patriotic themes. These Indian River Estates staples help define the spirit of Florida and the community.
Traditional ramblers and Mediterranean-inspired homes
"Indian River Estates features a quick commute to downtown Fort Pierce and is considered a secluded gem to buyers who know where to look,” says Natalia Rhinehart, local Realtor with EXP Realty. Housing options in this community range from traditional ramblers to multi-level coastal homes donning Mediterranean-styles. Architectural styles from the 1960s and 70s are common, while modern styles have become more popular as new construction and renovation continue in the area. This community boasts a variety of subdivision choices, from gated communities like Palm Grove to waterfront homes within Metes and Bounds. With a median sales price of $318,000, price points here can range from the low $100,000s to upwards of seven figures depending on the age, size and location of the property. For example, a three-bedroom ranch-style can go for around $129,000, while a five-bedroom coastal home complete with a backyard pool in a gated community can go for around $1.2 Million along the river. Homes neighboring the Indian River with waterfront views or those within gated communities are subject to increased price points. Many homes in Indian River Estates feature paved circular driveways and are fronted by well-maintained yards and tropical foliage easily spotted from the street. “Indian River Estates attracts older families and retirees moving into the area — It’s also one of the more sought-after locations around Fort Pierce,” says Rhinehart.

Native gopher tortoise crossings
Indian River Estates shares its home with the local gopher tortoise, a land-dwelling creature that burrows under the soil — which creates homes for more than 300 species of animals and insects within the area. This protected animal is native to the state, and 'tortoise crossing' signs are common throughout the area — reminding drivers to slow their speed and watch out for the tortoises. If conditions are safe, tortoises found in the middle of the road can be moved to the shoulder in order to ensure their continued safety.
Indian River Estates residents can find the Gopher tortoise in Savanna's Rec Area.

Travel and flood risk within Indian River Estates
Indian River Estates is situated next to U.S. Route 1 and provides residents with easy access to downtown Fort Pierce and neighboring areas like River Park and White City. Residents seeking public transit options can take the Area Regional Transit (ART), a fare-free public transit system serving the cities of Fort Pierce. Indian River Estates riders can start their ride on bus route 1, which operates along U.S. Route 1 and stops throughout the community. For those seeking to travel longer distances, the Treasure Coast International Airport (FPR) is only 10 miles away from Indian River Estates. When it comes to hurricanes and flooding, Indian River Estates is at a high risk due to its waterfront location. However, St. Lucie County has implemented recent precautionary measures like the 2023 Fort Pierce Shore Protection Project to strengthen the shoreline and reduce storm damage to residential and commercial areas.
