Living in Florida's Space Coast
St Andrews Isle
St Andrews Isle is a gated pocket of Suntree entered from St Andrews Boulevard, with Stoney Point Road and Melrose carrying the whole community. The homes were built between 1998 and 2002, mostly single story, 2,300 to 3,300 square feet on quarter acre to third acre lots, and nearly every one of them has a screened pool behind it.
St Andrews Isle In Melbourne, Florida
St Andrews Isle is one recorded plat, gated, tucked east off St Andrews Boulevard in the middle of Suntree. Two street names cover it, Stoney Point Road and Melrose, and there is no through traffic because there is nowhere for it to go. The houses went up between 1998 and 2002, late enough to carry high ceilings and open plans, early enough that the finishes on an untouched one will read as turn of the century.
The pool count is the tell. Nearly every house on this street has a screened pool, and several have a spa with it, which is unusual even in Suntree and says something about how the lots were laid out. Many back to water, an internal lake and canal system that is not navigable out of the community, so the water here buys you a view, a breeze and a rear elevation with nothing behind it.
Sizes run about 2,294 to 3,264 square feet, with three and four bedrooms, two to four baths and two or three car garages. Most are single story with soaring ceilings, and the detail work is where they separate: double leaded glass entries, tray ceilings, gas fireplaces, hardwood in the primary suite, a pantry built as a safe room with concrete walls and a steel door on one, saltwater conversions and heated spas on several.
St. Andrews Isle Homeowners Association, Inc. is registered with the Florida Division of Corporations and active, and membership here is mandatory. Dues apply, and on a gated street the questions worth asking are specific: how the gate hardware and entry system are funded, who maintains the lake banks, what the reserve position looks like, and whether anything is deferred. Get the current documents in writing before you make an offer.
Houses here have been trading between $650,000 and $995,000, with the middle of the range around $812,000. The spread in how long they take to sell is wider than the spread in price, and that is the honest read on this street: an updated single story with a working pool moves in days, while an original one at an optimistic number can sit for the better part of a year.

St Andrews Isle Details
A Gate Inside A Larger Community
Suntree is a big planned development with dozens of sub associations, and most of it is not gated. St Andrews Isle is. That single fact explains the price separation between this street and comparable square footage a few minutes away.
Pools Are The Rule, Not The Upgrade
Almost every house here has a screened pool, and a fair number added a spa or converted to saltwater later. Buy accordingly. A home without one is the exception on this street, and it will trade as the exception.
Single Story With Volume
Most of these are one floor plans with ten and twelve foot ceilings, tray detail in the primary and dining rooms, and sliders that open onto the pool deck. You get the scale of a two story house without the stairs, on a lot you can still walk in five minutes.
Water You Look At, Not Boat On
The lake and canal system inside the community touches a lot of these lots. It is a genuine amenity for views, breeze and privacy. It is not a route to the Indian River, so plan on a public ramp or a slip if you own a boat.
Suntree Address, County Rules
Suntree carries Melbourne mail but sits in unincorporated Brevard County. Permitting, code and law enforcement run through the county. Owners here also navigate the layered association structure that comes with a large planned development, so read the documents carefully.
Condition Sets The Timeline
Two houses on this street can be within a hundred thousand of each other and sell three hundred days apart. Kitchens, pool equipment, roofs and screen enclosures are what buyers price here, and an unrenovated home priced like a renovated one will sit.

St Andrews Isle Frequently Asked Questions
Is St Andrews Isle gated?
Yes. Entry is controlled from St Andrews Boulevard, and Stoney Point Road runs inside the gate. Showings need a code and advance arrangement, so drive by tours are limited to what you can see from the boulevard.
Is it in the city of Melbourne?
No. St Andrews Isle sits in Suntree, which is unincorporated Brevard County with a Melbourne mailing address and a 32940 ZIP. County code and county services apply, not city ones. It is a distinction that catches out of state buyers off guard.
Who governs the community?
An association does, and membership is mandatory. St. Andrews Isle Homeowners Association, Inc. is active with the Florida Division of Corporations. Dues apply and change over time, so ask for the current budget, the governing documents and the reserve study rather than relying on any figure you read online.
Do most homes have pools?
Yes. Nine in ten have a screened pool, and several include a spa. If you want one without a pool you will be waiting a while, and if you are buying one with a pool, have the pump, heater, surface and enclosure looked at closely because salt air is hard on all four.
Can I keep a boat behind the house?
No. The water behind many of these lots is an internal lake and canal system with no navigable outlet. For boating you would use a public ramp or keep a slip, with the Pineda Causeway and the Eau Gallie ramps the closest practical options.
How big are the houses?
Roughly 2,294 to 3,264 square feet, three or four bedrooms, two to four baths, two or three car garages. Most are single story. There is enough variation between plans that touring two or three tells you far more than the numbers do.
How long is the drive to work and the beach?
St Andrews Boulevard connects to Wickham Road and the Pineda Causeway, which puts I-95 a few minutes away and the beaches about fifteen minutes east. Melbourne Orlando International Airport is a straight run south, and Patrick Space Force Base is reachable over the causeway.
Stoney Point Road, Melbourne 32940
St Andrews Isle sits in the heart of Suntree, entered from St Andrews Boulevard, which runs between Wickham Road and the Pineda Causeway corridor. You turn east into the gate, and Stoney Point Road takes you through the plat. Suntree Country Club and its golf are close by, and the surrounding streets are established and heavily planted, so the drive in feels older than the 1998 to 2002 build dates suggest.
From the gate, I-95 is a short run at either the Wickham Road or the Pineda Causeway interchange, which is the reason this pocket works so well for people commuting north to Rockledge and Cocoa or south into Melbourne. The Pineda Causeway carries you east to Satellite Beach and Indian Harbour Beach in about fifteen minutes, and Melbourne Orlando International Airport is roughly twenty minutes south.
