Jupiter Key is a gated enclave of Key West and West Indies-style homes on the west side of A1A, across from Jupiter Beach. Built from the mid-1990s to 2007, it includes about 41 single-family homes, eight four-story townhomes and a small condominium building, many remodeled with vaulted ceilings, impact glass and private pools.
Stefan’s take
Walk out of Jupiter Key onto the beach road and run, walk, collect shells, ride your bike or take your dog to the dog beach! Key West charm behind a gate, with the Atlantic right across the street, and homes here rarely come up.
