Jupiter Lakes
Suburban Neighborhood in Jupiter, Florida
Palm Beach County 33458
Jupiter Medical Center anchors the neighborhood
With the neighborhood located in the geographical center of the city, it’s no surprise that Jupiter Lakes is home to the premier medical facility in the region. Ranked No. 1 for quality, patient safety and patient satisfaction in Palm Beach County, Jupiter Medical Center was named a “Top Hospital” by the Leapfrog Group, a distinction earned by only 6% of hospitals nationwide. Residents have access to state-of-the-art facilities equipped to handle a broad range of patient needs, including orthopedics and spine care, cancer care, cardiac and vascular care and neuroscience and stroke care.

"One of the more affordable communities for all we have going on around here."
Nestled around several small lakes for which the neighborhood is named, the condos and townhouses were built in the late 1970s through the early 1980s. The villa-style condos are the older of the two, and many have been renovated in recent years. The townhouses are typically larger, offering up to 1,300 square feet of interior space as well as appealing features such as balconies and private patios. Prices typically range from the low $300,000s to the high $300,000s. Monthly HOA fees vary from under $250 to more than $500. “It’s one of the more affordable communities for all we have going on around here,” says Levine, who has been selling real estate in Palm Beach County since 2009. The neighborhood’s wide streets are easily walkable and lined with palm trees, which complement the lakes and create a tranquil subtropical setting. As with all coastal communities, flooding and wind damage is a risk, especially during hurricane season, and insurance rates will reflect that.

Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse stands out among popular attractions
Residents are within minutes of a trio of popular attractions. The neighborhood is roughly equidistant from Carlin Park on the Atlantic coast to the east, Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse overlooking the Loxahatchee River to the north and Roger Dean Chevrolet Stadium to the south. Carlin Park, anchored by its stretch of beach, offers opportunities for swimming, fishing and relaxing along the oceanfront and athletic spaces for activities such as tennis, pickleball and sand volleyball. In addition, the park is home to the Seabreeze Amphitheater, which hosts concerts and other community events. Beachgoers can find additional spots along the coast to enjoy the oceanfront, highlighted by the amenities of nearby Juno Beach. “You’ve got the Juno Pier, a loggerhead turtle rehabilitation facility and miles of dog-friendly beach,” Levine says. “It has an eclectic personality. It’s for all ages, so you’ll see walkers, joggers and bike riders. There’s room for everyone.” The Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse was built in 1853 to prevent shipwrecks on the city’s rocky shores. Today, it is the centerpiece of the Jupiter Lighthouse Outstanding Natural Area. “You can actually go up to the top and get gorgeous views of the inlet,” Greene says. A historical museum is adjacent to the lighthouse. The surrounding 120 acres offer additional opportunities for waterfront recreation such as fishing and paddle boarding, and it has become a popular area for bird-watchers. Roger Dean Chevrolet Stadium hosts the St. Louis Cardinals for spring training. “That’s a big draw,” Levine says. “Cardinal people travel well.” Baseball action doesn’t stop when the Cardinals head north for the season. The Jupiter Hammerheads, a Single-A affiliate of the Miami Marlins, play their homes games at the stadium from early April to mid-September. If that weren’t enough, golf courses are spread throughout the city, and Jupiter Lakes residents can play right next door with a membership at Jonathan’s Landing Golf Club. “You could say that Jupiter is the golf capital of Palm Beach County,” Levine says.Dining and retail at Sea Plum Town Center, Concourse Village
Angelo’s Italian Restaurant, a neighborhood eatery known for its gourmet pizzas, has been a Jupiter institution for more than 40 years. Blue Water Taco, which features fare such as Guatemalan street food, is located just south of the neighborhood at Sea Plum Town Center, which also includes a Publix. Fresh Market and T.J. Maxx anchor the Concourse Village retail center retail center just north of the neighborhood along the Indiantown Road corridor, which is lined with dining options.

Convenient access to major highways
Travel throughout the region is easy, as the neighborhood is bordered by Florida A1A, which connects to U.S. Highway 1 and Interstate 95. Both roadways provide access to points of interest up and down the coast, including West Palm Beach and its international airport less than 20 miles south and Port St. Lucie about 30 miles north. Residents can catch the bus at multiple stops in the neighborhood.Nearby Jupiter Community High among top-rated school options
Students attend a trio of top-rated schools, and two of them are within walking distance of the neighborhood. The campus of Jupiter Community High, an A-rated school, is adjacent to the neighborhood. Jupiter Elementary School, rated B-minus, is just blocks away. Jupiter Middle School of Technology is an A-minus-rated magnet school. The Spirit of Jupiter High Marching Band has won numerous awards, including the Florida Marching Band Championships.
