Overview

About Country Place

Country Place sits on land first sold in the 1910s as Palm City Farms ten-acre tracts. It was resubdivided in three recorded phases between 1977 and 1980 into homesites of about two acres on private streets, with common parcels for lakes and bridle paths held by the association.

The county roll counts about 43 houses and one vacant lot. A typical house has about 2,480 square feet of living area, the larger ones close to 3,900. Houses went up one at a time from 1978 to 2005.

The phases were recorded with the Martin County Clerk as Country Place Phase One on June 23, 1977 (Plat Book 7, page 19), Phase Two on July 7, 1978 (Plat Book 7, page 53) and Phase Three on July 10, 1980 (Plat Book 8, page 28). The plats dedicate the streets and common areas to the association and say the county has no responsibility for them.

The plats also set aside common parcels for lakes and lake maintenance, a canal and maintenance easement along the south and north edges, and bridle paths along lot lines. Whether the bridle paths are open and kept up today, and the drainage details for a lot, are things we confirm for the home you are considering.

Country Place is in unincorporated Martin County with a Palm City address in the 34990 ZIP. The county’s zoning map shows it as PUD-R, a planned unit development for residential use, with a Rural Density land use designation, so what a lot allows, horses included, comes from that approval and the recorded restrictions.
