Indiantown

Quiet country living yet close to everything


Many people have never heard of it.

Equidistant to both the coast and Lake Okeechobee, Indiantown is a rural gem that is beginning to flourish.

Recently incorporated as a village, Indiantown is just starting to be publicly recognized as a beautiful place to live, and people are moving here from the coast to gain a little more space and achieve a higher level of tranquility.  

Offering a great quality of living, Indiantown has a quaint, small- town vibe and is experiencing some major downtown renovation.

It is well known for its historic Seminole Inn and some additional local features include Timer Powers Park & Equestrian covered Arena, Payson Race Horse Park, Indianwood Golf Course, and Indiantown Marina on the Okeechobee Waterway offering boat access to both the east and west coasts.  Indiantown is only 45 mins to Palm Beach International airport and 2 hours to Orlando


     The surrounding farms, horse farms and expansive cattle ranches contribute to a rural feel that is both secluded and inviting.  Close enough to the coast for a daily commute, greater Indiantown provides a rural atmosphere to which many people from the coast are gravitating.  Enjoy this wonderful investment opportunity and be a part of the rural renaissance.
