The Sanctuary at Sawgrass Lakes Homes for Sale
The Sanctuary is the smallest of the five gated enclaves that make up Sawgrass Lakes in southwest Port St. Lucie, zip code 34953. It rarely has more than a listing or two at a time, and often none at all. The listings on this page update daily from the MLS, so if a Sanctuary home is for sale, it is here. If the feed is empty, that is normal for this enclave; the section below explains what to do about it.

The Homes in The Sanctuary
Like the rest of Sawgrass Lakes, The Sanctuary was built as a gated enclave of single-family concrete block homes with two- and three-car garages, most of them one story, on lots that back onto lakes or preserve. Because there are so few homes, the ones that do sell tend to be well kept and to attract buyers who have been waiting for the enclave specifically. For a sense of what the neighboring enclaves offer, compare Crane Point, Panther Trace and Hammock Cove.
When Nothing Is Listed
Most of the time, nothing in The Sanctuary is for sale. If you want to live here, the practical approach is:
- Set up an alert so you hear the day a Sanctuary home hits the MLS. Call me and I will do it for you.
- Watch the whole of Sawgrass Lakes, not one enclave. A single listing can change what is available overnight.
- Consider the other enclaves: Panther Trace and Crane Point offer a similar home and the same setting with more turnover.
Before you make an offer: ask for the HOA budget, the gate arrangements for the street, and the roof and AC ages, since most homes here date from the 2000s. As a Realtor and licensed mortgage loan officer (NMLS #1883073), I can put the full monthly cost, HOA included, in front of you before you commit.
