One of Florida's best-kept secrets
With swaying palm trees, incredible sunset views and flourishing wildlife in its bayous, Hudson has all the components of a vacation destination, but instead operates as a small beach town with a lot of character. This quiet waterfront community is swimming in luxury, making it an ideal place to settle down. Hudson is growing quickly, and it is one of this region’s best-kept secrets. “As for the market, it’s hot but not exploding,” says Michael Bennett, Sr., a local Realtor with People’s Trust Realty. “Sometimes, a nice house will sit a while for no particular reason, so the prices are starting to come down.” In Hudson, houses are perched on the marinas of the Gulf Shores. Boat landings weave through the streets, encouraging fishing, boating and diving in the gulf and the surrounding lakes.
The people of Hudson are proud of their waterfront community.
Hudson is a growing neighborhood with a wide range of home options for those looking to move in.
Sun-splashed, colorful homes can be found near and on the waterfront in Hudson.

Hudson's waterfront homes
There are plenty of single-family homes in Hudson, including ranch-style homes, on the water, and Spanish Revivals further inland. Many homes have a garage and sit on a medium-sized lot in cul-de-sacs. Much of the residential construction took place in the 1980s, and most homes sell somewhere in the $200,000 – $480,000 range. For $275,000, homebuyers can find a 4-bedroom home on a half-acre lot with a fenced-in border and a carport, and prices increase to $475,000 for a 3-bedroom ranch-style home, sitting waterfront, with boat access and a covered patio.
