About this home
2986 SW Trailside Path, Stuart FL 34997
Positioned on 21.59 acres between Jupiter and Hobe Sound within the gated 41-parcel equestrian community of Trailside, this property offers a rare opportunity in an area where large acreage is increasingly limited. Trailside is known for its private, peaceful setting, spacious 20-30 acre parcels, and access to nearby riding and nature trails—all within a short drive to beaches, golf, and conveniences. Currently configured as a turnkey equestrian property, the property includes over 7,000 sqft of 2020-built CBS construction, featuring a well-equipped 13-stall center-aisle barn and two-story living quarters. A designated homesite with underground power allows for a future main residence, while existing improvements, including reverse osmosis to the home and paddocks, a generator, and quality infrastructure, support immediate use as a private retreat or working equestrian estate. The grounds are fully fenced and cross-fenced with multiple paddocks, a lit arena, round pen, and a mile-long riding trail. The surrounding area continues to see growth with new luxury golf courses and private club communities, while remaining nearby to Jupiter and Hobe Sound.
