Five Acres Minimum
The recorded median lot sits right at the five acre line, which is the community's constitution. Owners keep horses, barns, rings and workshops under county rules that accommodate the uses the neighborhood was platted for. Real privacy comes with the acreage. Nothing gated in the Gardens offers land at this scale, and nothing will again.
The Horse Life
The 32 acre community horse park anchors the riding life with rings and event grounds, and the trail network threads the neighborhood so owners hack out from their own barns. This is private horse keeping rather than the show circuit: Wellington runs the winter season, Caloosa runs every morning. Many owners keep both lives, twenty five minutes apart.
The Market
The last two years recorded 29 closings at $503 per square foot at the median, with market time near three months. The spread is the real number: original 1980s homes enter near a million, and fully rebuilt estates with serious barn setups have recorded to $5.7M. Two properties on identical acreage can price millions apart, so the improvements carry the appraisal here.

The Ledger
The complete tape follows, with the lot column reading like a metronome at five acres. Price variation is almost entirely house, barn and ring quality, which no other ledger on our site can say.
BeachesMLS recorded closings fenced to Palm Beach County, board twins deduplicated. Lot sizes are in square feet, where five acres reads 217,800. Same-named subdivisions in other counties are excluded.
Caloosa or the Alternatives
The comparison set is Jupiter Farms, the Acreage and Loxahatchee for land, and Wellington for the circuit. Caloosa wins on the horse park, the established canopy and the Gardens address, and gives up retail convenience to do it. Buyers who trailer to shows weekly belong in Wellington. Buyers who ride at home on Tuesday mornings belong here.
Bottom Line
Caloosa recorded 29 sales in two years at a $1.5M median on five acre parcels, with rebuilt estates setting a ceiling millions above the originals. The land is uniform and the improvements are not, which makes this the county's purest improvements market. Price the barn and the house separately from the dirt, and the community makes sense immediately.
For buyers and sellers in Caloosa: appraise the parcel, the house and the horse infrastructure as three separate numbers, because the market here prices all three on their own.
Every figure is a BeachesMLS recorded closing from November 2024 through October 2026. The scope is the Caloosa subdivision records fenced to Palm Beach County, board twins deduplicated on address and price. Subdivisions of the same name in Hendry and Lee counties are excluded. Medians are used throughout.
Community facts follow the public record: about 350 homesteads of five acres and up from the 1980s in unincorporated Palm Beach County. A 32 acre community horse park anchors the bridle trail network. This is market description, not a valuation of any property.
