Nature and affordable homes in Port St. Lucie
Hugging the shores of the St. Lucie River, residents of Lyngate in Port St. Lucie enjoy attractive home prices and spending time outdoors, with boardwalks, parks and nature preserves. "It's a little more affordable and not as crowded compared to the rest of St. Lucie County," says Joe James, Associate Broker with Watson Realty Corp.

Yet they are also centered in the heart of town, with all the perks of the sixth-largest city in Florida. Locals retreat to the peace and tranquility of the Port St. Lucie Botanical Gardens, a plant sanctuary and community meeting place for social clubs, health and wellness classes and events.
