Banyan Bay market snapshot (as of June 15, 2026): the median sale price is about $780K ($356 per sq ft), with homes averaging 84 days on market and 3.4 months of supply, a buyer-leaning market (limited data). Based on 7 recent closings in live BeachesMLS data.
Banyan Bay is a gated community in Stuart, Martin County, near the St. Lucie River, of 187 single-family homes built from 2018 by Ryan Homes across about 250 acres of natural preserves, about five minutes from I-95 and the Florida Turnpike.
Homes come in five floor plans up to about 2,900 square feet with two to four bedrooms, with tile roofs, hurricane-impact windows, stainless appliances, granite, and upgraded cabinetry. The floor plan, the lot, and the upgrade level are the value drivers across a consistent newer housing stock.
Amenities include a clubhouse, a gym, a game room, a pool, a picnic area, and walking trails throughout the preserve, with the prime location offering convenient access to boating and fishing and a short drive to area beaches.
Diligence is the diligence of a newer gated community: confirm the HOA dues and what they cover, the reserves and any assessment, the floor plan and lot and preserve outlook, any builder or owner upgrades, and a standard inspection of a late-2010s home. Price by plan, lot, and upgrades, not by the community name.
