A master-planned community in Palm Bay

Bayside Lakes offers seclusion, privacy and amenities within walking distance. A gated, master-planned community in Southeast Palm Bay, the development is home to grocery stores, dining, parks and highly ranked schools. “Bayside Lakes is a quiet, bedroom-type community where you have what you need, and everything else you might need is close by,” says Steve Stylianos, a Broker Associate with Century 21 Baytree Realty. “The vibe is laid-back, and everyone looks out for each other. We help everybody out.” Florida’s Space Coast beaches are 16 miles east, and acres of nature preserves blanket the city’s eastern side. Proximity to the Patrick Space Force Base and defense and aerospace businesses like Northrup Grumman and Collins Aerospace are also luring homebuyers. “Palm Bay and Melbourne are beginning to attract a lot of young engineers who work for Space X and NASA and commute,” says Stylianos.

Gated subdivisions filled with Craftsman and custom homes

Palms and a canopy of hardwood hammocks blanket the gated enclave. Walkways wind around multiple lakes and green spaces. Bayside Lakes features various gated subdivisions. Architecture styles include Craftsman-style, ranch-style and custom homes. “Bayside Lakes is a good place to start and offers a nice balance of young professionals and retirees,” says Stylianos. Most were built in the early 2000s, but there’s also new construction. Prices range from the high-$200,000s for a three-bedroom to the low-$800,000s for a renovated or new four- or five-bedroom. Property size averages between 1,300 and 3,500 square feet. “Bayside Lakes is affordable in the overall scheme of Florida,” says Stylianos. “You’re close enough to the beach but saving money on insurance. When the hurricanes come, you’re not evacuating, so it gives you that safety.” Each subdivision offers water views and mature trees. The Lake Forest subdivision sits at the highest price point, and Fairway Isles is one at the lowest price point. Lot sizes are large, averaging a quarter acre, but some stretch more than a half acre. Most dwellings have multicar garages and in-ground pools. Townhouses are available in the Fairway Crossings subdivision, offering two- to four-bedrooms ranging from the mid-$200,000s to the high-$300,000s. Community amenities include a clubhouse, basketball and tennis courts, a pool, a playground and a gym. Bayside Lakes has a CAP Crime Index Score of 2/10, lower than the national average of 4.
