Waters Edge
Suburban Neighborhood in Port Orange, Florida
Volusia County 32128, 32168
Custom homes and low HOA fees
The neighborhood’s residential streets loop around small lakes and branch off into quiet cul-de-sacs. Palm trees dot the roads, lined with custom homes with water views and meticulously tended front lawns. Broker Bill Navarra, who owns Realty Pros Commercial, notes that the neighborhood’s builder, ICI Homes, has won many awards. "They are not just the typical tract [homes]," he says. Most were built in the 2000s and many feature backyard lanais and pools. "Prices range anywhere from $325,000 up to $1 million," Zebrowski says. Most homes are in the $400,000 to $600,000 range, depending on size and amenities. Covendale—the gated section of Waters Edge with estate-style homes, some of which back up to the water—sees the highest prices.As for the homeowners association, Zebrowski says it ensures a uniform aesthetic in the neighborhood but is not overbearing. "Our HOA fees just went up to $160 a quarter, which is super cheap [for Florida]," she says.

Cypress Head Golf Club is nearby
Next to Creekside Middle School, Airport Road Park is an outdoor activity hub with sports fields, multiple lighted tennis courts and a large shade sail-covered playground. Just outside the neighborhood is the 18-hole public course at Cypress Head Golf Club. Hiking and biking trails as well as a boardwalk for birdwatching are at the nearby Doris Leeper Spruce Creek Preserve. Boaters and anglers can head to Dunlawton Bridge boat launch, just 10 miles northeast, and motor out to Disappearing Island. "Disappearing Island comes in and out with the tides, and you'll find hundreds and hundreds of boats there every weekend," Navarra says. Daytona Beach is around 12 miles north of the neighborhood.
