| | Things You Need to Know about Wellington Equestrian RealtyTopic: Home buyingEquine estates and farmland in South Florida have become increasingly popular investments for equine enthusiasts. Located in beautiful Palm Beach County near the southeastern coastline, the Village of Wellington has gained in notoriety as one of the top equestrian communities in the world.
With the population on the rise in South Florida, equine properties were being snatched up by real estate developers, turning large tracts of land into new housing developments. But certain communities were preserved in order to cater to equine enthusiasts. These areas enabled residents to create homesteads with sufficient land for their equines, and also live in close proximity to other people who shared their passion. Today, private horse farms and equine communities encompass over 8,000 acres of land throughout Wellington and the surrounding area.
Wellington currently plays host to equestrian competitions and events more than 40 weeks each year, including polo, dressage, and eventing. One of the most popular annual events is the Winter Equestrian Festival, which is actually the largest and longest running horse competition in the world. Approximately 5,000 horse and rider teams from throughout the US and 30 different countries come to compete each year. The event runs a full 12 weeks between January and April, and includes many trials and qualifying events for the Olympics and the FEI World Cup Finals. There are also classes geared towards children, juniors, amateur adults, and senior riders, with a total of $6 million dollars in prize money awarded to participants each year.
