302 Atlantic Street

COMMUNITY AND SURROUNDING AREA:
The Town of Melbourne Beach is beautifully tucked between the Atlantic Ocean and the Indian River, marked with a mix of charming older homes, newer single-family homes, stunning ocean and riverfront estates, and condominiums. This sleepy locale offers a slower-paced lifestyle where residents take pride in the broad sandy shores and marine life conservation. The beaches are a favorite spot for sea turtle nesting. The Archie Carr National Wildlife Refuge stretches from Melbourne Beach to Wabasso Beach in neighboring Indian River County. Located along Highway A1A, this stand-out luxury pool home is a four-minute bicycle ride to Ryckman Park, a riverfront venue with historic homes, a picturesque pier, a playground, party pavilions, and gourmet restaurants. A five-minute bike ride takes you to Spessard Holland North Beach Park, one of the area's most popular oceanfront spots. It's a four-minute drive to Gemini Elementary, seven minutes to Hoover Middle School, and eleven minutes to Melbourne High. The Melbourne/192 Causeway corridor is four minutes, coursing out to a host of stores, eateries, the mainland, and I-95. High-tech companies like Northrop Grumman and the Harris Corporation are twenty minutes away!
