Space Center vapor trails and views of the Indian River

In 1969, Bayfront Village residents would have been able to see vapor trails from Apollo 11, the spacecraft that sent Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong to the Moon. Located 60 miles south of the Kennedy Space Center in Palm Bay, Bayfront Village borders the Indian River. “A lot of people have relocated to the area to work at the Kennedy Space Center on Merritt Island,” says Candace Mulvaney, a Realtor with RE/MAX Elite and Palm Bay local. Although “giant leaps for mankind” are happening a little over an hour away up Interstate 95, daily life in Bayfront Village is peaceful — plus the traffic isn’t as bad here as it is in Melbourne, just 7 miles north. On weekends, residents cast their lines into the water, waiting for grouper or spotted sea trout to take the bait. Sunny afternoons are spent canoeing on Turkey Lake or sampling soft serve at Twisty Cone. “You’re in close proximity to Space Coast attractions but the tourists don’t often make it down here,” says Mulvaney.

Manufactured homes, ranch-styles and condo options

In Bayfront Village, two-bedroom manufactured homes, most of which are under 1,000 square feet with covered driveways, start at $115,000. Three-bedroom 1970s-era ranch-styles start at $250,000 and newly-renovated homes can sell for upwards of $350,000. Properties with views of the Indian River and dock access, many of which are located along Dixie Highway, can sell for close to $2 million. Many of these homes have sprawling balconies and, sometimes, backyard swimming pools. Although hurricanes are a concern along Florida’s coast, Mulvaney says the homes here were built to last. “A lot of houses here went up 50 years ago and they’re still standing,” she says.

Magnet programs in the Brevard Public School System

Bayfront Village students are incorporated into the Brevard Public School System and, depending on their address, can attend schools like Palm Bay Elementary, Stone Magnet Middle School and Palm Bay Magnet High School, all of which received a C-plus or higher from the educational review site, Niche. As the names suggest, Stone Magnet Middle and Palm Bay Magnet High are known for their magnet programs, where students can explore specialized interests in STEAM fields. Some high schoolers even enroll in college-level courses at the Florida Institute of Technology (FIT). Stop by the PBMHS guidance office to visit Bailey, the school’s therapy dog.

Fried fish on the Indian River

Drive down Dixie Highway to reach The Shack Riverfront Restaurant & Outback Tiki Bar, known for its water views and fresh seafood. Order a margarita and a Crabby Patty and enjoy live music most nights of the week. Or stop by Rooney’s, a family-owned establishment a bit further inland, to try their wings and a prime rib dinner.

Residents visit Winn-Dixie on Port Malabar Boulevard for groceries or drive to the Walmart Neighborhood Market on South Babcock Street. At Space Coast Harley-Davidson pick up a new or used bike and riding equipment. A few miles north, the Melbourne Square Mall has over 120 retailers including Macy’s and JCPenny as well as chain restaurants like Outback Steakhouse and Chick-fil-A.

Kayak rentals, carnival rides and disc golf

Bayfront Village residents can rent canoes or kayaks at Palm Bay Marina and, from here, explore Turkey Creek Sanctuary under the shade of mangrove trees. Leaving the marina, it’s not uncommon to spot dolphins, and some explorers may even encounter a manatee or two. In March, stop by the annual Palm Bay Fair near Space Coast Harley-Davidson. Families enjoy carnival rides, fair food and even pig races…
Disc golf — also known as frisbee golf — is a popular year-round activity on Florida’s Space Coast, and can head to the Malabar Disc Golf Sanctuary. This 18-hole course is located on a nature preserve across from the Malabar Fire Department.

Fishing, basketball and nature trails at nearby parks

At Castaway Point Park, Bayfront Village residents can enjoy the natural beaches surrounding the Indian River Lagoon, cast their fishing lines into the water from one of the park’s piers and explore the concrete walking trails under the shade of palm trees. A mile away at Knecht Park, locals challenge one another to pick up basketball games, practice their swings on the lighted softball field and pack weekend picnics to eat near the playground. According to Mulvaney, one of the benefits of living in the Palm Bay area is the proximity to nature — residents walk their dogs at Ais Trail Park and listen to the chirps of Willets and Sanderlings 75 miles from Disney World traffic.

Melbourne Orlando International Airport and nearby medical care

About 5 miles north of Bayfront Village along Dixie Highway is the Melbourne Orlando International Airport, which offers direct flights to U.S. travel hubs like Minneapolis and Atlanta. TUI Airways also offers seasonal flights to U.K. destinations like Edinburgh and Manchester. Depending on traffic, the larger city of Orlando — and Disney World — is an hour and 15 minutes away along I-95.

For their medical needs, residents can drive 6 miles to Health First’s Palm Bay Hospital. The facility offers a range of medical services from intensive care to occupational therapy.
