Collins Estates offers easy access to the Gulf Coast at Indian Rocks Beach
Collins Estates is about a mile or two away from a popular barrier island community that stretches along the Gulf Coast called Indian Rocks Beach. “Kids can go to the beach and ride bikes. It’s a nice, sheltered community, and everyone knows their neighbors,” says Adrienne Dauses, a principal agent with Compass Florida LLC, who has about eight years of experience in the area. “A lot of the people who have lived over there over the years are involved with small businesses that supply the beach, who can’t afford beach prices but want to live close to it.”
Indian Rocks is only minutes away, and while it's a tourist town many residents of Collins Estates go here for fun and food.

Late-midcentury bungalows and more contemporary homes with pools
Palm trees cast shadows on grassy lawns next to wide linear and horseshoe driveways in Collins Estates. The neighborhood is primarily home to bungalows and ranch-style homes, largely built from the 1950s through the 1970s, that range from $380,000 to $775,000. Properties often come with outdoor living areas, hot tubs, pools or lanais — rooms covered by a roof and enclosed with screens or windows, typically located in the back of a home — to enjoy the sunny Florida weather. Contemporary single-story homes from the 1980s and 1990s with screened pools on around a third of an acre fetch between $800,000 and $1.1 million. Located more inland, homes in the neighborhood aren’t at high risk of flooding and don’t require flood insurance, unlike those in nearby Indian Rocks Beach. According to Dauses, mandatory flood insurance premiums in oceanfront Indian Rocks Beach have caused more investors who manage vacation rentals to start bidding in Collins Estates. “That will be the new tourist place, because you can take a golf cart and go over to the beach,” Dauses says.The CAP Index Crime Score in Collins Estates is 2 out of 10, lower when compared to the national average of 4.

Several green spaces for cycling and nature viewing at “Turtle Park”
The white, sandy shores of Indian Rocks Beach are less than 2 miles away from the neighborhood via Walsingham Road, which turns into 5th Avenue once it reaches the beachfront community. Before it crosses "the Narrows" waterway to Indian Rocks Beach, the road passes the George C. McGough Nature Park, affectionately known as the “Turtle Park” because of the shelled creatures that scale wooden platforms to sunbathe. The park’s nature center is also home to 22 rescued birds, including owls, hawks and an eagle.
Walsingham Park—a 254-acre green space with a 100-acre lake where wading birds await their prey—includes a playground, an off-leash dog area and a shared-use, 6-mile trail. Cycling is popular throughout the entire area. “There’s the electric bikes people are using on the beach and the Pinellas Trail, and then you have the professional bikers in their outfits,” Dauses says. The Fred Marquis Pinellas Trail goes through Largo on its way from St. Petersburg to Tarpon Springs.

Proino Breakfast Club, Yellow Banks Grove and Publix on Walsingham Road
The neighborhood’s restaurants and businesses are concentrated on Walsingham Road, and shopping centers with a Publix Super Market and a Walmart Neighborhood Market are located on the north side of the road. The Proino Breakfast Club has an extensive menu of breakfast dishes, many of which are served with crispy potatoes or crunchy strips of bacon. Sweet crepes come topped with whipped crème, and fruit trays are elaborately plated. Across the road, Yellow Banks Grove began as a citrus packer when Walshingham Road was still made of bricks. While it still sells oranges, it’s evolved into more of a gift shop. “It’s a huge tourist place. They have a variety of oranges you had no idea existed,” Dauses says. “They even have orange ice cream and all kinds of cool candy.”
Proino breakfast club has been voted the #1 breakfast place in Collins Estates multiple years in a row.
