Stuart Side (34996)

Bathtub Reef Beach, Stuart Beach, the Elliott Museum and the House of Refuge are all on this stretch.

Jensen Beach Side (34957)

The longest condo stretch, from the Jensen Beach Causeway north along S Ocean Drive.

Condos for Sale in Hutchinson Island, FL by Community

Condos

Most listings on the island are condos. Oceanfront buildings give you direct beach access and ocean views; riverfront and Intracoastal buildings on the lagoon side trade the beach walk for sunset views, and often lower prices and docks. Buildings range from two-story walk-ups to elevator towers with pools, tennis and guarded entries.

Single-Family Homes

Houses are a smaller share of the island. You will find them in Sailfish Point on the Stuart side and in Thumb Point, Surfside and nearby streets south of the Fort Pierce Inlet, along with a handful of oceanfront estates on A1A. See houses for sale on Hutchinson Island.

Nettles Island

Nettles Island, on the lagoon side of the Jensen Beach stretch, is an RV and manufactured-home community with its own marina and clubhouse. See Nettles Island homes for sale.

Buyer Checklist: Condos for Sale in Hutchinson Island, FL

Many buildings on the island date from the 1970s and 1980s and sit right on the water, so the building matters as much as the unit. Florida now requires milestone structural inspections and structural integrity reserve studies for many condo buildings three stories and taller, and these can lead to higher monthly fees or special assessments. Before you make an offer, ask for:

  • The most recent milestone inspection report, if the building needs one
  • The structural integrity reserve study and the current reserve balance
  • Any special assessments, approved or under discussion
  • The master insurance policy, including wind and flood coverage
  • Rental, pet and vehicle rules, and the buyer approval process

Rental rules vary a lot from building to building. Some allow seasonal rentals, others require long minimum leases or limit rentals to a few times a year. We read the current association documents with you instead of relying on the listing.

Financing Condos for Sale in Hutchinson Island, FL

If you plan to finance, the lender reviews the condo association as well as you: its budget, reserves, insurance, inspections and owner-occupancy. Ask for the building's budget, reserve study and insurance details early, before you spend money on inspections and appraisals.
