Median days on market

Melbourne Beach sits on the narrow barrier island of Brevard County's South Beaches, where the Atlantic surf is a short walk from the calm of the Indian River Lagoon. It's a quiet, low-key stretch of Florida's Space Coast — the kind of place where single-family homes and low-rise condos matter more than crowds, and where homes with water views come with both ocean and lagoon frontage.

The market here is small and moves quickly. With just three active listings and a median list price of $1,325,000, buyers are working from a tight inventory that skews toward the luxury homes ($1m+) end of the spectrum. Homes are averaging only 13 days on the market, so serious shoppers should be ready to act — and keep an eye on the wider Brevard County market for more options.

Melbourne Beach is in Brevard County, Florida.

Melbourne Beach real estate FAQs

Is Melbourne Beach a good place to live?+

It's a quiet barrier-island community on Brevard County's South Beaches, appealing to buyers who want both Atlantic beach access and the Indian River Lagoon close by. The small scale keeps it low-key rather than resort-crowded, and the housing runs from condos to single-family homes.

Is Melbourne Beach expensive?+

Yes, it sits at the higher end of the local market, with a median list price of $1,325,000 and prices averaging $662 per square foot. That said, the current range spans from $250,000 up to $4,100,000, so it's worth checking browse by price for the more accessible listings.

What do homes cost in Melbourne Beach?+

The median list price is $1,325,000, with active listings ranging from $250,000 to $4,100,000 and a median home size of about 2,213 square feet. Two of the three current listings are priced above $1 million, which is why the luxury homes ($1m+) segment dominates the inventory.

How is the Melbourne Beach housing market right now?+

Inventory is very tight, with just three active listings, but what's available moves fast — the median time on market is 13 days. Given the limited supply, keeping tabs on just reduced listings and new arrivals gives you an edge.

What are HOA fees and property taxes like?+
