Canterbury Place, Abacoa Jupiter
Listing your house or looking for homes for sale in this community?
Canterbury Place is an Abacoa community that has its own river! Well, a canal, to be precise. It goes through the middle of the neighborhood and wraps around the neighborhood’s northern border. The Canterbury canal is adorned with tropical vegetation, 10 fountains, and 3 arched bridges.
Built in 2006-2007 by Centex Homes, Canterbury Place is designed in an exquisite resemblance of French country/Tuscan/Spanish-style architecture. The barrel clay tile roofed homes in this Abacoa Jupiter community flaunt arched colonnaded entryways and windows are embellished with louvered side shutters.
Single-family homes, of which there are 144 in Canterbury Place, feature 15 different floor plans and come in both one-level and two-level models, with sizes ranging from 1,585 to 3,474 square feet under air. The 173 townhomes are offered in five different 2-story models, ranging in size from 1,406 to 2,320 living square feet. Some townhouses in Canterbury Place have an in-laws suite over the garage, with a separate patio-side entry and equipped with a full bathroom and a kitchenette. The association rules allow this extra space to be rented out, which is great because FAU, Scripps and Max Planck located a few minutes away from this community provides a constant supply of potential tenants.

Quick Insights
What Stands Out
- Distinct canal running through and around the community, with fountains and arched bridges
- Broad housing mix with 144 single-family homes (15 floorplans) and 173 townhomes (5 models)
- Some townhomes include separate in-law suites with rental allowed by HOA, supported by nearby FAU, Scripps, and Max Planck
Trade-Offs
- Townhomes are all two-story, limiting one-level options outside some single-family homes
- Architectural style is highly specific (French/Tuscan/Spanish) — not neutral or modern
- Community includes both SF and TH, so less uniform than single-product neighborhoods
Who This Is NOT For
- Buyers seeking a modern or contemporary architectural style
- Buyers who want a purely single-family or fully uniform community
