About this home
Discover your Florida lifestyle in this move-in-ready concrete block home in the heart of Merritt Island! Perfect for first-time buyers, this property features a spacious, fully fenced backyard with absolutely NO HOA restrictions. Inside, beautifully restored original terrazzo floors bring timeless mid-century charm to an open, light-filled layout. The fully renovated custom kitchen boasts upgraded cabinetry and ample counter space, flowing effortlessly into a dining area highlighted by a stunning stone fireplace. Enjoy peace of mind with major structural upgrades already completed: a newer AC, an upgraded 200-amp electrical panel, a brand-new water heater, and hurricane-proof windows throughout the entire living area (excluding only bathroom/garage windows). Offered strictly as-is--coastal convenience meets structural peace of mind!
Local Insight
At $202/sqft for a 1966 ranch on a tight 0.18-acre lot, you're paying for location and commute advantage rather than modern updates or space—this price point makes sense only if that 15–25 minute aerospace corridor commute to KSC is a real factor in your decision. The 360° tour will show you exactly what you're getting in terms of condition and layout, so scrutinize whether the bones justify the price or if you're banking on appreciation from the dual-income aerospace workforce that typically anchors this market. If your job is at Kennedy, Boeing, SpaceX, or any of the major contractors, this property's value holds; if it's not, you're overpaying for someone else's commute benefit.
