Checking easements on a house in Indiantown? What you want is the Indiantown plat map, since it shows lots, streets and easements as approved. This Indiantown guide covers: where to request a copy, plat versus tax map, and what to look for on the sheet.
Who keeps the Indiantown plat map
For a subdivision near Jupiter Island, look for the plat book reference on the parcel record; use it to request a copy.
The free map to start with
Your first stop is the Martin County parcel viewer; it maps every tax parcel in the county, Stuart included. When a rural tract has no street number, pan along US Route 98 until the lines appear, then click inside the one you want. If the land is near Ocean Breeze, copy the parcel ID before closing the panel; each office in the county uses it to find the file.
On site with the map
The parcel map usually runs in a mobile browser, which helps when you're standing on land near Sewall's Point, but coverage can be spotty out of town. A saved image of the lot near Stuart and its lines keeps working without signal.
Martin County in a few facts
Stuart serves as the county seat, which is where the courthouse records live. You'll also find Jupiter Island, Ocean Breeze, and Sewall's Point, each with its own cluster of lots. Roughly 163,315 people call Martin County home (Census Bureau estimate, 2023) on some 544 square miles. Martin County dates to 1925, and some chains of title near Stuart are long. Landmarks such as Hobe Sound National Wildlife Refuge are easy to spot when you zoom out from Jupiter Island.
Indiantown and the county around it
Indiantown is part of Martin County, Florida, which means parcel data comes from the county. Out toward Stuart, the municipality handles things like zoning, permits and utilities within town limits, and the county still keeps the parcel and deed records. Lots just outside the town limits out by Stuart generally follows county rules rather than the town's.
Two different maps
The Martin County parcel viewer draws parcels for taxes, while the recorded plat is the legal document.
Who handles what
Recorded documents for a parcel near Ocean Breeze come from the Clerk of the Circuit Court (official records), usually searchable by name or document number. Zoning, permits and septic questions near Jupiter Island need the planning or permitting office, town or county, depending on location.
Amended plats
Lots near Jupiter Island can be combined or reconfigured by a replat, so check for later filings; vacated streets or alleys also get recorded.
Reading the plat sheet
In and around Sewall's Point, the sheet usually includes lot and block numbers, dimensions and bearings, street rights-of-way and easements.
What the map can't tell you
Listed acreage is a tax-roll number; just a licensed surveyor sets the real lines for a parcel near Sewall's Point. Closer to Sewall's Point, records update in batches, so a deed recorded last month can take weeks to appear.
How land is described here
Florida uses the Public Land Survey System, so rural legal descriptions near Stuart cite section, township and range. A standard section is about one square mile, roughly 640 acres, and a township holds 36 of them, though real sections near Jupiter Island vary in size. Keep the legal description for land near Stuart for any title or survey request.
Ordering the Indiantown plat map
For acreage around Ocean Breeze, many recorder offices offer an online index, while others require a visit or a request; copy fees are usually small.
Land on the county line
Martin County meets Glades County, Hendry County, Okeechobee County, Palm Beach County, and St. Lucie County; every one of them runs a separate parcel map. Acreage along the edge near Ocean Breeze may be split across two assessors' files, so check the neighboring map as well. With a lot near Ocean Breeze, the Platbookmapper state page lists every neighboring county map across Florida.
Recorded documents worth pulling
For anything that matters, get the recorded deed from the Clerk of the Circuit Court (official records); the parcel map near Ocean Breeze only summarizes it. For a tract near Stuart, use the book and page shown in the record panel so staff can find the deed fast.
Metes and bounds instead
Rural land near Stuart that was never subdivided is often described by metes and bounds or survey description; look for a recorded survey for land near Ocean Breeze.
