A Discovery Land Company Club, Hobe Sound
Discovery Land Company chose Hobe Sound for its first club on Florida's east coast. The land runs to roughly 1,500 acres of former orange grove and old polo grounds, with a Tom Fazio championship course and 317 home sites. The community pairs the fields and lakes with a working farm, equestrian facilities and Discovery's signature family programming.
The Community
Atlantic Fields is Discovery Land Company doing what it does, on ground it had never touched: Florida’s east coast. In partnership with the Becker family’s citrus company, Discovery took roughly 1,500 acres of orange grove and historic polo land in Hobe Sound. On it they built a Tom Fazio championship course, a 10 hole short course, a working farm and equestrian facilities, with 317 home sites threaded through the fields and lakes.
The address matters as much as the amenities. Atlantic Fields sits beside Michael Jordan’s Grove XXIII in what has become one of the densest concentrations of elite private golf anywhere in America.
The market behind the gate is already measurable. Between the first deed in July 2024 and the county files read in September 2026, buyers closed on more than a billion dollars of Atlantic Fields land. The sections below carry the club, the collections and that recorded market in one place.

Discovery Land builds clubs where families actually live: comfort first, ceremony last, with outdoor pursuits and food at the center. Mike Meldman founded the company in 1994, and it now runs more than 35 communities worldwide. The signatures travel with every one of them. Chef run comfort stations have stood on its courses since Estancia in 1996, golf runs without a conventional tee sheet, and the day is built for children as much as for the golfers. The company’s history and the model a member lives with each have their own page.
Atlantic Fields brings that model to Florida’s east coast for the first time, complete with the working farm, the performance center and the comfort stations. The Fazio course runs through open fields and lakes rather than housing, and the 10 hole short course adds more than 120 routing options for evening golf.
Eight collections span the community, from turnkey cottages and villas built by Discovery Builders to preserve estate sites of more than six acres where owners commission their own homes. The product is new construction throughout: a buyer chooses between a finished Discovery build and a custom build on an estate lot, inside the community’s design standards. Starting prices below are the developer’s release pricing as of August 2026. As resales record, the market table above takes over.
| Lakeside Cottages | Four and five bedroom Discovery Residences with lake views. From $6.7M. |
|---|---|
| Club Cottages | Five bedroom plans on lots from 25,000 square feet. From $6.75M. |
| Mustang Villas | Turnkey homes by Discovery Builders on the short course, garden and lake sides. From $6.95M. |
| Atlantic Ridge Estates | Sites of 1.2 to 1.8 acres set for privacy. From $8.1M. |
| Golf Estates | Lots of 1 to 2.5 acres on the Fazio course. From $9M. |
| Western Estates | Sites of 1 to 2 acres on the sunset side, near the kids club and racquets. From $11.5M. |
| Equestrian Estates | Sites of 1.8 to 4.5 acres beside the polo fields, with the barns and trail system. From $12.8M. |
| Preserve Estates | The largest sites, 3 to 6.5 acres against Atlantic Ridge Preserve State Park. From $15.6M. |
The deed record inside the community opens on July 26, 2024. Through the county files read in September 2026 it holds 144 qualified closings for just over $1.01 billion, and every one of them is land. The developer was the seller on 141. The average recorded lot climbed from $6.58M in 2024 to $7.96M in 2026, and the record deed is $17 million, a 6.4 acre preserve estate site that closed in November 2025.
Nothing finished has traded yet. The first completed homes are expected to reach certificates of occupancy through 2026 and 2027, and those closings will set the community’s first built price level. The census behind these figures is published in full: the lot record study reads the billion dollar launch, and the deed census ledger follows the record sales, the lone resale and the absorption math.
Bridge Road is the corridor’s spine. Grove XXIII sits next door, Medalist and McArthur are minutes away, and the beaches of Jupiter Island lie just east across the Intracoastal. The Becker family’s tree farm along Bridge Road is set to remain in agriculture under a permanent easement, which keeps the community’s western approach rural. Atlantic Fields gives this corridor of golf retreats a true family community.
For buyers on our footprint, it extends the Jupiter Island orbit: the same beaches and the same discretion, with a modern club behind the gate.

Common Questions
Discovery Land Company’s private club community in Hobe Sound, its first on Florida’s east coast, built with the Becker family on about 1,500 acres of former grove and polo grounds. It holds 317 home sites, a Tom Fazio championship course, a 10 hole short course, a working farm and equestrian facilities.
Developer releases as of August 2026 start at $6.7M for the Lakeside Cottages and run to $15.6M for the Preserve Estates, with golf, equestrian and western estate sites between. On the county record, the average lot closed at $7.96M in 2026 against $6.58M in 2024. The collections table on this page carries each starting price.
Entirely as land, and almost entirely through the developer. Per the Palm Beach Luxury Deed Census, the record opens July 26, 2024 and holds 144 qualified closings for just over $1.01 billion through the September 2026 county files, with the developer as seller on 141 of them. The full census is published in our lot record study.
The club operates on Discovery Land’s private, members only model tied to the community, and membership is extended by invitation with the purchase of property, subject to the club’s application process. Structure, categories and cost come from the club directly, and the current terms belong in review beside the purchase contract.
Every closing is public. The recorded deed carries the parties, the price and the parcel at the Martin County courthouse, which is what our census reads. Membership terms, categories, admission and cost are club controlled and come from the club directly, so we never publish fee figures here.
Tom Fazio designed the 18 hole championship course, par 72, and the 10 hole short course offers more than 120 routing combinations. A Discovery Performance Center with TrackMan technology backs both.
In Hobe Sound, Martin County, just north of the Palm Beach County line, beside Grove XXIII off Bridge Road. The corridor now holds one of America’s densest collections of elite private golf. Jupiter Island’s beaches sit minutes east, and Palm Beach is under an hour south.
No. Every closing recorded through the September 2026 county files is land, and the county appraiser still lists nearly every parcel in the community as vacant. The first completed homes are expected to reach certificates of occupancy through 2026 and 2027, and those closings will give Atlantic Fields its first built price level.
Yes. A lot trades by ordinary deed, and the club’s own rules govern how membership follows it. The record so far shows a single arm’s length resale: a 1.21 acre lot bought from the developer in October 2024 resold in August 2025 at $7.8 million. Two other owners returned lots to the developer at exactly the price they had paid.
They serve the same discreet buyer differently. Jupiter Island is oceanfront estates and old guard privacy, while Atlantic Fields is a modern club community with golf, the farm and family programming. Several buyers on the Atlantic Fields deed record list mailing addresses inside Jupiter’s gated club communities.
It is younger and farther north than any of them, and it is the only one on the Discovery model. The Bears Club, Old Palm and Panther National anchor the gated golf market from Jupiter through Palm Beach Gardens, each with a resale history a buyer can study. Atlantic Fields offers new construction and the Discovery club day, at release pricing that overlaps their estate tiers.
