Duck Wood
Quiet Hobe Sound living close to it all
Duck Wood is a small residential pocket of Hobe Sound, the kind of low-key Martin County neighborhood where turnover is slow and neighbors tend to stay put. You're within easy reach of established communities like Heritage Ridge and Papaya Village, with the beaches and preserves that give this stretch of coast its character close at hand.
For buyers, the reality here is scarcity. Only three homes sold in Duck Wood over the past 12 months, and there are currently no active listings on the market. That means you'll want to watch the live map closely and be ready to move when something comes up, because inventory doesn't sit around long.
Duck Wood is a community in Hobe Sound, Florida.

Is Duck Wood a good place to live?+
It's a quiet, established residential neighborhood in Hobe Sound with slow turnover and a settled feel. You're close to communities like Heritage Ridge and within reach of the beaches and preserves that define this part of Martin County. If you want low-key coastal Florida living without the crowds, it fits.

Not by Hobe Sound coastal standards. Homes here sold for a median of $330,000 over the past 12 months, which puts Duck Wood on the more approachable end of the local market. Compared to nearby waterfront and gated options, it's a relative value.
What do homes cost in Duck Wood?+
The three homes that sold in the last year had a median sold price of $330,000. There are currently no active listings, so pricing on the next available home will depend on what comes to market. Keep an eye on Hobe Sound homes for sale to see comparable inventory nearby.
How is the market in Duck Wood?+
It's tight. With just three sales in the past 12 months and zero active listings right now, this is a low-inventory neighborhood where homes don't linger. Sellers are getting about 97% of their asking price, so when something lists, expect to compete.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
We don't have current HOA or property tax figures specific to Duck Wood, since so few homes have traded recently. Those costs vary by property, so it's worth confirming the exact numbers on any individual home before you write an offer. Your agent can pull the details once a listing is available.
