Spending time on Florida’s Treasure Coast offers more than just beautiful views—it comes with a range of health benefits, too. Here, residents enjoy a holistic lifestyle that’s just what the doctor prescribes. The abundance of sunshine, fresh, air, and access to nature all play a part in enhancing both physical and mental health. From Vitamin D to Vitamin Sea, this coastal region is known for providing an inviting atmosphere to live well. Let’s explore how this region, and a new master-planned community at its heart, makes it easy to live a healthy lifestyle!
The Health Benefits of Connecting with Nature
Spending at least two hours a day outdoors is recommended by doctors for boosting overall well-being, mental health, and physical activity. On the Treasure Coast, there are countless opportunities to embrace the outdoors, from exploring miles of nature trails at Savannas Preserve State Park and White City Park to more adventurous ATV rides and horseback tours. These areas, rich with wildlife, are perfect for birdwatching and discovering unique Florida species. Yet, residents of Wylder, a master-planned community in Port St. Lucie, won’t have to travel far to get outdoorsy. Planned parks and multi-use paths throughout the community wind through nature preserves and lakes, offering the perfect setting to unplug and connect with nature.
Water’s Healing Power
Getting in the water offers a variety of health benefits, including low-impact exercise, improved circulation, and reduced stress. At K. Hovnanian’s Four Seasons at Wylder, a newly announced active-adult neighborhood, residents will enjoy a pool area that blends relaxation with fitness. Planned amenities include a resort-style swimming pool for refreshing dips, a lap pool for energizing swims, and a heated spa for unwinding and soothing muscles. Beyond the community, the Treasure Coast offers a natural playground for water enthusiasts. With 21 miles of coastline, it’s perfect for beach walks and invigorating swims. Snorkelers can explore nearby reefs, including Pepper Park’s underwater archaeological preserve and the vibrant coral reefs at Peck Lake Park.
Healthy Eating with Fresh Produce
Eating healthy is essential for maintaining energy, supporting the immune system, and preventing chronic diseases. On the Treasure Coast, fresh, locally grown produce is easy to find, with farmers markets like Fort Pierce’s Saturday morning market, Stuart’s Market on Main, and Tradition’s Neighborhood Market offering a variety of fruits, vegetables, and baked goods. For midweek needs, Nelson Family Farms, one of Florida’s top open-air produce markets, is open daily. Residents of Four Seasons at Wylder can bring their fresh finds home to one of the community’s planned cooking areas. The outdoor grilling area is perfect for preparing healthy meals, while the catering kitchen offers an ideal space for hosting private parties or community events.
Embracing Social and Mental Wellness
Just as important as the physical health benefits are the mental ones. Having a strong social circle can improve emotional well-being and reduce stress. At Four Seasons, the main Clubhouse will be the perfect place to foster these connections, featuring a game room, a state-of-the-art fitness center, pickleball courts, a putting green, and more. Plus, an on-site lifestyle director will ensure there’s never a dull moment. Whether it’s joining an art class, shaking things up in a Zumba session, or enjoying community-wide events, the director will provide endless opportunities to bond with neighbors.
Stylish Treasure Coast Homes Without the Upkeep
In retirement, people deserve the peace of mind that comes from an all-inclusive lifestyle. K. Hovnanian’s Four Seasons is designed to provide just that with a collection of stylish, low-maintenance homes for effortless living. Residents can choose from nine ranch-style floorplans or a villa option, ranging from just over 1,500 to nearly 3,000 square feet. With four distinctive interior design styles—Loft, Farmhouse, Classic, and Elements—each move-in ready home is crafted to reflect your unique taste. Five model homes are now open daily, with pricing starting in the upper $300s.
Four Seasons at Wylder is just one of the exciting opportunities within the master-planned community of Wylder. This fun-loving community offers a variety of neighborhoods designed to cater to every stage of life. Brystol at Wylder, featuring single-family homes priced from the $300s to the $500s, is now offering move-in-ready homes and to-be-built homesites. Additionally, construction is underway for Glynlea Country Club, a new gated golf community featuring PGA Tour Professional Jim Furyk’s first signature golf course. Homes are planned to begin selling later this year, priced from the $400s to over $1 million.
