This Fairway Home in Stuart Already Handled the Two Big Things

Lucía Torres · 2026-10-27

Inside the gates of the Yacht & Country Club of Stuart, SE Fairway East runs along the golf course. The homes on its course side were built to face the fairway rather than the street, which tells you something about how this community thinks. Number 3523 is one of them: a single-story, concrete-block residence from 1980 that's been steadily and sensibly improved over the last several years. Here's what makes it interesting. It comes to market with the two things a Treasure Coast buyer asks about first already handled. The roof is a residential metal roof installed in November 2024, and the air conditioning was upsized from two tons to three in June 2019. Anyone who's priced a metal roof lately knows that's not a small head start. The listing is Coming Soon at $1,195,000, with showings scheduled to begin on November 12, 2026. It offers three bedrooms, three full baths, and 2,783 square feet of living area on a 0.29-acre golf course lot. There's a concrete in-ground pool, a gas fireplace, and a circular paver driveway completed in January 2024. ### A One-Story Plan with a 26-Foot Living Room The floor plan is the kind that was common in the better golf communities of its era and is increasingly hard to find at this size. Everything sits on one level, with the bedrooms split so the primary suite sits apart from the two guest rooms. The living room is the center of the house at roughly 26 by 19 feet, anchored by the gas fireplace, and the ceilings are high throughout. For a 1980 build, that volume matters. It's the difference between a house that feels dated and one that feels generous. The kitchen measures about 14 by 16 feet and is built around an island, with a bar and a pantry nearby. The pantry area is new, fitted with a wine refrigerator, and both the kitchen and the pantry were refloored in hickory. Elsewhere the flooring is ceramic tile and wood. Appliances include a refrigerator, dishwasher, washer and dryer, and the wine refrigerator conveys. Dining happens in the kitchen rather than a separate formal room, which suits the way most people actually live. The primary bedroom is about 14 by 18 feet, and its bath was remodeled in February 2019. The second and third bedrooms measure roughly 14 by 13 and 13 by 13, each with access to a full bath. That means three full baths without a half bath squeezed in anywhere. Laundry is inside. Storm protection is a complete set of accordion shutters, and the lot sits in flood zone X, the FEMA designation for minimal flood hazard. ### The Pool, the Patio and the Course Behind It The lot is 12,465 square feet and backs directly to the course, so the view from the pool deck is fairway, garden and, in the distance, the clubhouse. The pool is concrete and in-ground, opening onto an open patio with awnings for shade. The landscaping has been kept to lawn, hedges and flowering beds rather than anything that would compete with the golf course for attention. The home faces west, which puts the morning sun on the course side and the afternoon sun on the front elevation. ### Parking That Fits the Lifestyle Parking is more generous than the three-bedroom count suggests. There's an attached two-car garage plus a dedicated golf cart garage, and the circular paver drive brings the total to six spaces. In a community where the golf cart is a primary vehicle, that's not a luxury. It's practical. If you've been watching the Yacht & Country Club of Stuart for a while, you know homes on the course side don't come up often. This one rewards a closer look, especially if a new roof and a right-sized AC system are the kind of certainty you'd rather not shop for later.
