Quiet neighborhood next to Tomoka State Park
Located 3 miles from the coast, the Northbrook neighborhood in Ormond Beach is a prime location for those who want proximity to the beach and parkland. Tomoka State Park, an expansive 2,000-acre plot of undisturbed land on the Tomoka River rests against the neighborhood’s western edge. “There are huge 100-year-old oak canopies throughout the state park. It’s super scenic,” says Eric Zimmerman, a Realtor with Adams, Cameron & Co., who lives in the area. “It’s really popular during Bike Week. People ride their motorcycles through there. It’s a really popular spot for bicyclists too.” Residents also enjoy easy access to shopping and dining on Granada Boulevard, right next to the oceanfront. “There’s everything you could want on Granada Boulevard from big box stores to independent restaurants,” Zimmerman says.

Proximity to parks and coastal Ormond Beach
Tomoka State Park offers hiking and biking trails and boat ramps for a day of floating on the Tomoka River. Bailey Riverbridge Gardens is located at the foot of the Granada Bridge, and residents can walk, bike or drive over the bridge to reach the coastal side of Ormond Beach. It’s not uncommon to see locals kayaking, fishing or checking out marine life there. “I like to go paddleboarding out there,” says Michelle Cecchini, a Realtor with Shell Realty, who’s been selling homes in the area for a more than a decade. “There’s a lot of wildlife and the manatees will swim up right next to you.” Birthplace of Speed Park, on Ocean Shore Boulevard is where locals can sunbathe on the beach or go for a swim in the ocean.

Ranch-style homes offer relative affordability
Northbrook offers homebuyers a wealth of three- and four-bedroom ranch-style homes in a quiet setting. Properties rest along winding streets with grassy front lawns, front-facing garages and plenty of palm trees. “It’s an established neighborhood,” Zimmerman says. “There are a lot of long-term residents. It’s not used for rental properties or anything like that.”
With Northbrook being landlocked, price tags here are less competitive than those of neighboring riverfront communities like Oak Forest or Woodmere. Single family homes range from $300,000 to $500,000. According to the CAP Index Crime Score, Northbrook has an overall crime score of 1 out of 10, significantly lower than the national average of 4.
