Local Insight
At $486/sqft for a 1968 villa on 7.74 acres with waterfront access, you're getting significant land value, but that AE flood zone designation means mandatory flood insurance will be a real cost to factor in beyond the already-substantial $1,739 monthly HOA. The 55+ community restriction limits resale flexibility, and for a 3-bed/2-bath from the late '60s, you'll want to budget carefully for updates—those older villas on this acreage can hide deferred maintenance issues, so the 360° tour only goes so far.
