February Market Report for Baytree Golf Community Homes

The gated communities within the Baytree National Golf Links still offers buyers lots of opportunities. The end of February 2008 finds there are 26 properties active in the the Brevard MLS.

The good news, a couple of homes did sell during February.

The two homes selling were basically opposites - one on the market for 154 days, the other only 16 days! One listed for $500,000 and sold for $490,000 in 16 days. The other was listed for $699,000 and sold for $585,000 (quite a drop!).

Looking at the homes actively for sale I noticed that 5 of these were in the maintenance free gated community of the Isles of Baytree. Kind of ironic that there is a gated community within a gated community! Of course the initial entry from the "outside" has a full time security guard.

The Isles of Baytree homes all feature Mediterranean type tile roof and most back up to preservation areas. These homes are really not small with most being 1900 to 2500 square feet of living area.

The most expensive listing in Baytree is $1,085,000 for a 5 bedroom, 4 bath home with almost 4500 square feet of living area. A lot of home for sure!

If you are looking for private living in a very exclusive golf course community then Baytree is the place to look. There is a home for all budgets from around $300,000 and upward!
