Admirals Cove and Jonathan's Landing waterfront properties

Jupiter's well known club, Admirals Cove, is a yachting community of 941 homes located along 6 miles of waterways and close to the Intracoastal.  Here, stately mansions mix with Harbour Homes and villas to offer potential residents a wide variety of options.  One central community is Captains Way located close to the main clubhouse and there are several properties currently on the market.

Captains Way homes are designed with 4 units per building and range in price from $299,000 to $950,000.  Living square footage ranges from near 1,800 to near 2,900 feet.  With such a wide range of prices, it is easy to see that the market for these homes is struggling to find itself.

However, no matter which price is in your range, all the homes for sale on Captains Way share waterfront locations, golf course and tennis views and proximity to the main clubhouse.  Of course, all Admirals Cove residents also enjoy access to the Golf Village which can be enjoyed after a brief golf cart ride across Alternate A1A.

Golf Village

Captains Way is located on the East side of Admirals where the architectual design is "Bermuda style".  The Golf Village, with it's own clubhouse, has the feel of Pinehurst or other famous golf venues.  Either way there are 45 holes of golf available.  The Golf Village waterfront properties have lake views as opposed to the salt water views found near Captains Way.

Membership in Admirals Cove is mandatory for all residents and non-resident memberships are not permitted.  Typically a membership is sold with the house so if you don't want a full golf membership you might need to find a home offering a sports or the rare social membership.  There are a very few original homes occasionally offered that do not have any membership attached to them.

If the membership obligation is an issue, you might consider homes for sale in Jonathan's Landing located on the north side of Admirals Cove.  Here, over 1,200 homes priced from around $ 200,000 to nearly $ 5 million, offer lake and salt water locations and those on salt water have the same ocean access as Admirals Cove.  The big difference is that Jonathan's Landing does not require membership and even the full golf membership is only about 1/3 of the cost of the full membership in Admirals. Jonathan's Landing offers the same high level of security and two clubhouses but also offers 3 full golf courses and a dry storage marina for boats to 30 feet, things not available in Admirals Cove.
