Laid-back Gulf Coast living with convenience
Easy access to the amenities and parks of the region, without the constant traffic of downtown makes South Pensacola a destination for residents of the region. “Not only is South Pensacola walkable and bikeable to downtown, it’s also close to the bridge to get to Gulf Breeze so it’s just 20 minutes to Pensacola Beach,” says Christine Landers, a Realtor with Voyage Real Estate with 30 years of experience in the region. It’s a developing and growing neighborhood, with century-old bungalows and modern coastal farmhouses under shared groves of palms and moss-covered oaks. Skinny streets with well-maintained sidewalks help the walking crowd stay safe as they venture to their favorite local watering hole or make the walk downtown for shopping, dining, and regular events.
South Pensacola residents have quick access to the area beaches via the Pensacola Bay Bridge.
South Pensacola has a laid-back friendly vibe enjoyed by locals and guests on vacation.

Home prices rise near the water
Along the gridded streets of South Pensacola sits a mix of the old and new. Midcentury brick ranch-style homes on oak-shaded lawns sit amongst renovated 1930s and 40s bungalows under towering palms. More recent builds offer Craftsman-style bungalows with neat, manicured front lawns and contemporary coastal homes lined closely together, featuring open floor plans and farmhouse accents. While most parking is off-street, this is accomplished a number of ways – for some, it’s a nicely-paved driveway, while others opt for the traditional Florida method of parking in the grass in the front yard. With an overall median price of $322,000 there are homes at numerous price points. Most single-family homes range from $200,000 to $500,000, but some communities in the neighborhood demand a higher going price. “Homes closer to the water tend to be higher priced, from the upper $300,000 to the high $800,000 or $900,000 range,” says Landers, adding that “anything under $300,000 would be a fixer upper.” The same goes for homes closer to downtown. Further inland, prices begin to drop, and a renovated bungalow under old-growth trees with a single-car garage might be found for under $200,000.

Fresh Gulf Coast favorites and brews
Longtime neighborhood favorites and hip, modern establishments mix throughout the South Pensacola neighborhood. At Captain Joey Patti’s Seafood and Saloon, fried shrimp, oysters and other Gulf Coast seafood favorites are on the lunch menu, while The Oar House offers seafood with tiki vibes. Taste of Jerusalem and More imports Middle Eastern flavors, and Five Sisters Blues Café serves up Creole-style fare with a blues soundtrack. Emerald Republic Brewing, housed in a 1960s mechanic’s shop hosts running clubs, trivia and other events while tapping house-made brews. Up the road, locals hang out at the Elbow Room, with an easygoing vibe and low-key drinks in a dimly-lit bar. A short distance to downtown, Palafox Street is lined with local and high-end retail shops. Small local markets such as Shoreline International Food Market & Deli stock specialty items, along with meat products and local produce. Larger markets like Aldi and Publix, along with big-box retailers including Walmart and Lowe’s, are located in neighboring communities along U.S. Route 90.

Celebrate the weird, the wonderful, and the Wahoos
Pensacola calls itself “The Festival City of the South,” so there is always something going on. South Pensacola is convenient to many of these events, like the weekly Palafox Market that features local vendors sharing their homemade and homegrown wares, from baked goods and produce to fine arts and crafts. Pensacola Bay Center – home to the Pensacola Ice Flyers hockey team – is also the place to be for national music and comedy tours. From spring through fall, the Pensacola Blue Wahoos play at the Blue Wahoos Stadium in the Admiral Fetterman Field complex. With events at locations in and around the South Pensacola neighborhood every November, the Foo Foo Fest celebrates the weird and wonderful arts and culture of the region with music, shows, food, and more. With these events being close to but not within South Pensacola, it offers some separation - “It’s vibrant, growing and at the same time quiet,” says Landers.
