Nestled among the native vegetation, Crystal Beach homes provide a traditional beach experience with ample privacy.
Crystal Beach homes are situated in neighborhoods like Clipper Cove, Kokomo, Villages of Crystal Beach, and set along streets named either after fish (Cobia, Barracuda, Stingray, Tarpon, etc.) or the books of the Bible (Matthew, Mark, Luke, John).

Crystal Beach Property Values
Crystal Beach property values are important to both buyers and sellers and depend on many factors such as:
Proximity to the beach
Age, size, number of bedrooms
Finish, quality, and design
Building materials
Exterior features such as swimming pools and cabanas
Land in resort areas is always in high demand. As a result, extremely small lots are common in most beach communities. However, property in Crystal Beach is the exception to this rule, with lots typically in the 50 x 150 ft. range. Lots of this size provide plenty of space to build a large house, including garage and swimming pool.
