Lakeside living in Port Orange
Port Orange’s Waters Edge neighborhood earns its name from the many small lakes it's built around. Along with scenic water views, there are miles of walking paths, and shopping, dining and a municipal golf course are nearby. Realtor Sherie Zebrowski, who's lived in Waters Edge for eight years, describes the community as warm and friendly, and the HOA as proactive but laid back. At the entrance are Creekside Middle School and a fire station, which are both convenient and practical. "We're actually on the [middle school and fire station] grid. When there's a hurricane or anything, we're one of the very first [neighborhoods] to have our electricity back," Zebrowski says. The CAP Index crime score in Waters Edge is 1 out of 10, well below the national average.
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.
