Description:
The Hobe Sound Polo Club encompasses 1,757 acres of improved “high and dry” Florida land. An elegant gated entry welcomes guests, with oak and palm trees and paved roads to provide a dramatic entrance. It consists of five championship, irrigated polo fields, two irrigated stick and ball fields, a practice field, two-paddock sites and a ¾ mile exercise track. In addition the property features two completed, 20-acre ranches with their own polo fields and working 12- and 24-stall barns with grooms‘ quarters and owners‘ studios. Hundreds of acres have been fenced with miles of three-rail wooden fences, providing extensive paddocks and pastures. In addition to the extensive bridle trail network within the property’s boundaries, the stunning park system surrounding the property makes this location unequalled. The adjacent 8,000 acre Atlantic Ridge State Park includes miles of equestrian trails so vast one can ride all day and not pass the same tree twice or contend with vehicular traffic. Another equestrian trail system is located in nearby Jonathan Dickinson State Park. The property‘s pristine atmosphere, coupled with the sheer wide expanse of land is perfect for those who value privacy, privilege, the questrian lifestyle and great outdoors from the cool mornings, as the sun rises over the lush green fields, to the spectacular sunsets, when the tropical Florida sun sets over the polo fields. Its location so close to the Atlantic Ocean provides stiff ocean breezes that are not common in some of Florida’s other inland equestrian communities.
This is a very unique opportunity to own a one-of-a-kind gated equestrian community. The underlying land use of this piece of paradise offers limitless opportunities, and could allow for shooting ranges, high-fenced hunting operations, golf courses, exotic wildlife rehabilitation facilities and sanctuaries, airstrips, a gated equestrian community for a variety of equestrian sports, horse breeding operation – or a combination thereof. The most stunning of all would be the use as a one of a kind private ranch or sportsman’s retreat.
The property is located on Florida’s east coast, north of Palm Beach, between the seaside towns of Jupiter and Stuart, in a town called Hobe Sound. The area is well known for its world-famous white sandy beaches, unblemished parks, fresh and saltwater fishing and excellent golf courses. Situated alongside a peaceful stretch of Bridge Road, within wide open land and adjacent to the Atlantic Ridge State Park, the property is truly in the middle of it all. Nestled conveniently one mile east of I-95 and the Florida Turnpike, just minutes from legendary Jupiter Island, with its grand oceanfront estates and less than 30 minutes away from the renowned equestrian center of Wellington, home to the Palm Beach International Polo Club. This highly sought after location is especially unique for an equestrian paradise, being surrounded by Florida’s finest wide open spaces and natural beauty, while in harmony with nearby convenience.
