Overview
About Fishermans Cove
Fishermans Cove is one of the larger neighborhoods in south Stuart, about 510 homes built in a little over a decade, from 1977 to 1989. Many streets take the names of lakes, bays and rivers, among them SE Geneva Drive, SE Ontario Way, SE Chesapeake Bay Drive and SE St. Lawrence Way.
The county roll records Fishermans Cove and Section 2, Phases 1 through 4. The homes are compact, typically about 1,210 square feet on lots of about 5,200 square feet, and many lots are split into halves on the roll, a pattern that usually means attached pairs; we confirm the layout for a specific home.
The original section associations from 1979 and 1981 have been dissolved, except one: the Section 2, Phase 4 association is still active under the name Somerset Homeowners of Stuart, Inc. Which rules apply depends on the section, and we confirm them for a specific home.
It is in the 34997 ZIP in unincorporated Martin County, between U.S. 1 and Port Salerno.

- Estoppel The closing agent orders an estoppel certificate from each association, which confirms what is owed at closing.
Documents to Review Before Closing
- Before you sign: the association disclosure summary and the parcel’s tax bill, including any non-ad valorem lines
- Before you sign: leasing and approval rules if you may rent, and architectural rules for exterior changes
- Before closing: estoppel certificates from every association that applies
