Spacious units with expansive ocean views

Many units have undergone recent updates, featuring modern finishes such as quartz countertops, soft-close cabinets, and stainless steel appliances. The open floor plans maximize the ocean views, with expansive balconies that span the width of the living areas and primary bedrooms. These outdoor spaces provide stunning vistas of the Atlantic Ocean.
Interior highlights often include wet bars in the living rooms, utility sinks in laundry rooms, and ample storage throughout. Some units feature vinyl plank flooring or ceramic tile, while others maintain the classic parquet wood floors. Hurricane-resistant windows and sliding glass doors have been installed in many units, providing peace of mind during storm seasons.
Beachfront amenities for a coastal lifestyle
Ocean Pines offers a selection of amenities designed to enhance the beachfront living experience. The centerpiece is the heated outdoor pool, providing year-round swimming opportunities with ocean views. Adjacent to the pool, a clubhouse serves as a community gathering space, perfect for social events or quiet relaxation.
One of the most valued features is the private beach access, allowing residents to easily transition from their homes to the sandy shores. This direct connection to the ocean is a significant draw for those seeking an authentic coastal lifestyle.
For added convenience, each unit comes with a designated parking space in the form of a one-car garage, providing secure storage for vehicles and beach equipment. The building is serviced by elevators, ensuring easy access to all floors.
Recent building improvements include extensive updates such as concrete restoration, a new roof, fresh exterior paint, and new garage doors. These enhancements demonstrate a commitment to maintaining the property's integrity and value over time.
While Ocean Pines may not offer some of the more elaborate amenities found in newer developments, such as fitness centers or concierge services, its focus on essential comforts and its prime location make it an attractive option for those prioritizing beachfront living.
A vibrant beach town with a laid-back vibe
Ocean Pines is situated in the heart of Cocoa Beach, a town renowned for its surf culture and space program connections. The neighborhood embodies the relaxed Florida beach lifestyle, with a mix of long-term residents and vacation-goers creating a dynamic community atmosphere.
Just steps from the condominium, residents can enjoy the expansive beaches that have made Cocoa Beach famous. The area is a paradise for water enthusiasts, offering excellent surfing conditions, fishing opportunities, and various water sports. The iconic Cocoa Beach Pier, a historic landmark featuring restaurants, shops, and fishing spots, is within easy reach.
For those seeking green spaces, Lori Wilson Park is less than a mile away. This scenic coastline park offers beach access, pavilions, grills, and a nature trail through coastal hammock, providing a perfect spot for picnics or nature walks. Sidney Fischer Park, about a mile and a half from Ocean Pines, is another nearby option featuring shaded picnic areas and a playground.
Shopping and dining options abound in the vicinity. Banana River Square, a local shopping center anchored by Publix Super Market, is just a mile and a half away, offering convenient grocery shopping and various retail options. For a quick bite or casual dining, residents can walk to nearby spots like Beach Eatz, known for its gyros and shawarma, or Denny's for classic American fare. Those looking for local flavor might enjoy a short drive to Crackers Island Grille, an upbeat eatery offering a fish-centric comfort food menu.
The area also caters to fitness enthusiasts, with several gyms within walking distance. Healthy Evolution Fitness and Crossfit Cocoa Beach are both about a 10-minute walk from Ocean Pines, providing options for those looking to maintain an active lifestyle.
For families with school-age children, the highly-rated Theodore Roosevelt Elementary School is just a mile and a half away, while Cocoa Beach Junior/Senior High School, known for its strong academic programs, is about two miles from the condominium.
Convenient local transit with easy access to major routes
While Cocoa Beach is primarily car-oriented, Ocean Pines offers some convenient transportation options for residents and visitors. The nearest bus stop, located at the corner of N Atlantic Avenue and N 4th Street, is less than a quarter-mile away and can be reached in under five minutes on foot. This stop is serviced by the Cape Canaveral Cocoa Beach line, providing connections to other parts of the city and neighboring areas.
For those who prefer cycling, Cocoa Beach offers a moderately bike-friendly environment. The relatively flat terrain and numerous bike lanes make it feasible to run errands or explore the area on two wheels. However, for longer trips or commutes, a car is often the most practical option.
The condominium's location provides easy access to major routes. Residents can quickly reach nearby roads connecting Cocoa Beach to neighboring areas and the mainland.
Air travelers will appreciate the proximity to Melbourne Orlando International Airport, located about 21 miles south, or roughly a 40-minute drive. This regional airport offers connections to major hubs, making it convenient for both business and leisure travel.
The individual parking garages provided for each unit at Ocean Pines ensure that residents always have a secure place to keep their vehicles, which is particularly valuable given the area's reliance on car transportation.
While public transit options may be limited compared to larger cities, the combination of local bus service, bikeable streets, and easy car access makes Ocean Pines a reasonably well-connected residence for those embracing the Cocoa Beach lifestyle.
