Pepperwood
Homes for Sale in Stuart, FL
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
Photo via public records & builder filings
As of this snapshot, public records show no recorded resale history for Pepperwood, and that is exactly what you would expect: it is a new-construction Lennar community that had recently opened for sale when we last checked. There is no resale price or pace to read here yet because the first homes have not changed hands on the open market.
For a buyer, that means the numbers that matter right now are Lennar base prices and incentives, not comparable sales. Base pricing at discovery ran from roughly the mid $600,000s into the high $700,000s across the community's floor plans. For anyone tracking south Stuart, Pepperwood is worth putting on a watch list now: early release is when lot selection is widest and pre-construction pricing is typically lowest.
Figures in this note are as of July 31, 2026. The live market numbers elsewhere on this page update nightly and are newer.
The 60-Second Overview
Pepperwood is a new-construction single-family community by Lennar in south Stuart, Martin County (ZIP 34997), positioned near I-95 and Florida's Turnpike for straightforward commutes. Homes range from about 1,843 to 2,836 square feet across four floor plans marketed as Beachstone, Driftwood, Coral Bay, and Marshlight, with base pricing at discovery from roughly $649,990 to $799,990. As a Lennar community it is built on the builder's included-features approach. Public records show no recorded resale history yet, so this page tracks the community's launch rather than a pricing picture. HOA details and any Community Development District (CDD) assessment were unpublished at discovery and should be confirmed with the builder.
Pre-construction details are compiled from public records, builder announcements and builder listings, and are subject to change without notice; figures are deemed reliable but not guaranteed. Momentum Research figures are our own analysis. This page describes homes, pricing and community attributes, not residents.

The Pepperwood buying strategy.
If we were buying in Pepperwood today, this is the order of operations we would run for our clients.
Underwrite the condition first. Price the roof, HVAC, and systems honestly before judging any list price; condition swings value here more than square footage alone.
Match the home to real comps. Recent sales of similar condition and lot, not the asking price, tell you what a home is worth.
Move deliberately, not desperately. Neither side has a decisive edge, so a well-prepared, fairly-priced offer wins without overpaying.
Line up financing and inspection early. A pre-approval and an inspection plan let you act fast and negotiate from evidence.
Keep an agent in your corner. The listing agent works for the seller; we represent you and prepare a hand-built valuation before any offer in Pepperwood.
New Construction in South Stuart
Pepperwood is a compact Lennar single-family community rather than a large master plan, offering four floor plans, Beachstone, Driftwood, Coral Bay, and Marshlight, from about 1,843 to 2,836 square feet. That range spans three- and four-bedroom layouts, which puts it in reach of both move-up buyers and households that want a new home without a sprawling footprint. Base pricing at discovery ran from roughly $649,990 to $799,990, so the plan you choose and the lot premium will drive where you land in that band.
The location is the practical draw. South Stuart along the I-95 and Florida's Turnpike corridor gives quick highway access while keeping Stuart's historic downtown, the St. Lucie River waterfront, and Treasure Coast beaches within a manageable drive. For a commuter or a buyer who wants new construction in Martin County without going inland to Indiantown or north into St. Lucie County, Pepperwood's position is a real advantage.
Two things are genuinely unknown at this stage and should be confirmed in writing before any deposit: the HOA fee and whether the community carries a CDD assessment. New Martin County subdivisions vary on both, and the recorded documents, not a sales-office estimate, are the reliable source. Base prices and included features were still being finalized in early releases at last check.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Pepperwood. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
For a newly launched community, the value of a local agent is timing and diligence. We can get you on the interest list so you see pricing and lot releases as they happen rather than after the best homesites are spoken for, and line up Pepperwood against other new Stuart and Treasure Coast communities on price per square foot and included features.
We also read the fine print buyers often miss on new construction, the HOA budget, any CDD assessment, and how builder incentives are structured, so the monthly cost you underwrite is the real one, not the sticker.

Martin County approves limited-industrial zoning on Southeast Powerline Avenue in Hobe Sound
Commissioners voted 3-2 to rezone a property along Southeast Powerline Avenue to limited-industrial, a less intensive class than the general industrial designation first proposed. The county said the existing zoning was outdated and that no data center is planned. Any proposal over 100,000 square feet would need board approval.
What it may mean for the marketLimited-industrial zoning could add light industrial space and local jobs in Hobe Sound while capping the scale of future uses. The project is about 10 miles south of Pepperwood, elsewhere in Martin County.
