Bayside High School

It's a solid fit for families and buyers who want Space Coast access without beachfront prices, with established neighborhoods and feeder schools like W. Melbourne Elementary School for Science. The area balances 46 new-construction listings against resale inventory, so you have real choice. Proximity to the Indian River Lagoon and Melbourne beaches rounds out the appeal.

Not by Florida coastal standards — the median list price is $355,000 and homes run about $207 per square foot, well below many oceanfront zones. Prices span widely, from $99,900 up to $1,295,000, so there's range for different budgets. Only 2 active listings are priced above $1 million.

The median list price is $355,000 for a home around 1,830 square feet, and 190 homes sold over the past year at a median of $325,000. That gap between list and sold prices is modest, with sellers averaging 98% of asking. You can compare active and recent options on the live map.

It's a steady, buyer-aware market — 135 homes are active and the median time on market is 72 days, so listings aren't flying off the shelf. Sellers still command about 98% of asking, meaning well-priced homes hold value. With 46 new-construction listings in the mix, there's healthy supply to negotiate against.

Carrying costs are reasonable here, with a median HOA of $85 per month and median property taxes around $2,017 a year. Only 8 of the active listings are in gated communities, so many homes carry little or no HOA at all. That keeps monthly ownership costs lower than in many amenity-heavy Florida communities.
