Santa Rosa Beach Real Estate
Santa Rosa Beach is an especially large unincorporated community, which actually encompasses a number of smaller named neighbourhoods and communities, including Old Florida Beach, Sunrise Beach, Gulf Place, Gulfview Heights, Point Washington and Mack Bayou. In fact, Santa Rosa Beach holds a relatively small portion of the 30A corridor's beach front, when compared with other beach communities and in consideration of its extensive frontage on Choctawhatchee Bay and Hogtown Bayou.
Due to its age and multiple-community personality, Santa Rosa Beach homes come in a wide variety of styles and price-points. Buyers can find traditional Florida beach homes, contemporary Mediterranean-style villas, and Caribbean-style bungalows. Condo developments are also popular in Santa Rosa Beach, drawing interest from retirees, vacationers who want a hassle-free vacation home, and from the vacation rental market.

With about 25 additional restaurants, Santa Rosa Beach residents can always find a cuisine style to tickle their taste buds.
Residents of Santa Rosa Beach have easy access to all of the region's popular recreational activities such as swimming, fishing, golf, tennis, biking, kayaking, parasailing, and more, but the residents are especially blessed by their proximity to the finest natural areas on the Highway 30A corridor. The community hosts several entrances to the 15,400-acre Washington State Forest, which is home to several different ecosystems, and popular with hikers, bikers and campers. Santa Rosa Beach is also adjacent to Topsail Hill Preserve State Park, which is noted for its majestic sand dunes, coastal dune lakes, and long-leaf pine forests, and popular with hikers, birdwatchers and fishermen.
