Almost a suburb of Orlando for some
Cocoa West is among the cluster of many Space Coast communities that some have credited for providing desirable spots well outside of larger places like Orlando. In fact, some residents here work in Orlando, but come home here to get away from some bigger city challenges. “It’s almost like a suburb of Orlando,” says Stephen Cintron, a real estate agent with Re/Max Solutions and who has made over 180 sales in Cocoa West. “It’s more comfortable, and it’s the slower pace of life. Things are a bit more spread out here. You’re not so cramped up.” Cocoa West residents still have access to a number of activities, many of which can occur on scenic waterfronts like the Indian and St. Johns rivers. Among the sports facilities here is the Launch Pad Sports Complex, which was once a pro baseball spring training site and now regularly hosts events like sports tournaments and instructional camps. Residents are also within a reasonable distance of Cocoa Village to the east. The Village serves as a downtown area for the city. There, residents can find a diverse mix of dining spots, shops, boutiques, events and art galleries, studios and installations.
Mix of houses in coastal subdivisions
Like in much of the Space Coast, homes in Cocoa West can be found in subdivisions featuring a mix of builds ranging from ranch styles and single-story craftsmen to larger colonial and split-level homes with brightly-colored stucco siding. The more upscale homes can be found next to each other in walkable subdivisions spruced up with manicured lawns and palms. Then some homes, like on Indian River Drive, come up with additional features like private docks. The median price for homes in Cocoa West is $337,610. “There’s nothing too outlandish,” Cintron says about the architecture found here. “It’s a very family-oriented area. Very laid back. The nice thing about Brevard County is you have riverfront property, lakefront property, beach front property. You have golf views.”
