Mature neighborhood and older homes in northern Melbourne
Suntree is considered the more mature and unique counterpart to the modern master-planned communities in northern, unincorporated Melbourne. Unlike the new Addison Village community nearby, Suntree has had several decades to grow into its homes and landscaping. "A lot of the homes are turning over from previous generations, and a lot of them are being remodeled," says Dana Saunders, Realtor with Keller Williams Realty and Viera resident since 2006. It's in a desirable location near A-rated schools, golf courses, the beach and major employers on the tech-savvy Space Coast.
The boardwalks at Waterway Park allow you to fish, walk, or take in the sights.
Single family homes are common throughout the neighborhood.

Villas, ranches and luxury estates from the 1970s through the '00s
Suntree has several subdivisions, some situated along golf courses or preserves and offering shared neighborhood amenities. Compared to some cohesive new construction communities, "Suntree's homes have larger lots, and they're a little more unique than what you can find in Viera," Saunders says. Development flourished here between the 1970s and the '00s, consisting of townhouses, condominiums, apartments and single-family homes. Options include brightly-colored villas, mid-sized ranch-style homes and sprawling luxury estates. The median single-family home price is around $560,000, and prices jump above $1 million for the luxury properties on the community's south side. The Suntree area has one master HOA, though some subdivisions have additional dues. Older trees add to the mature vibe on the various winding streets.
Residents prepare for hurricanes from June through November. According to FEMA maps, homes around the area's lakes may be susceptible to flooding.
Townhomes are one of the many home styles in the area.
Single-family homes often feature large yards.

Arnold Palmer left a mark on Suntree Country Club
Golf is central to Suntree, where two golfing giants left their mark. Suntree Country Club features two 18-hole courses designed by well-known names in the game. Arnold Palmer's Challenge Course tests skilled players with marshlands, canals, lakes and an active bird sanctuary. Robert Trent Jones's Classic Course was a stop on the Senior PGA Tour in the 1980s and '90s. Public green spaces and trails are woven throughout the area. Jack Mahon Park's 15 acres include play equipment, tennis and pickleball courts and soccer fields. Suntree is also primed for waterfront activities. It's about 7 miles from the beach.
