Country Club Lakes Estates

Yes. It occupies the former Port Malabar Country Club course, which General Development Corporation opened in January 1965 and which hosted LPGA invitational tournaments in 1968 and 1969. Play ended in the mid 2000s and the land was rezoned for housing. The ponds and grade changes between streets trace the old routing.

There is an association here, so budget for dues. The amount and what it covers change from year to year, so I get the current figure, the budget and the reserve study straight from the association before you write an offer.

Portions are. The gated entry is reached from Riviera Drive NE, and driving directions to interior addresses commonly reference passing through it. Not every phase sits behind the gate. Confirm gate status for the specific street rather than assuming it applies community wide.

Yes. The fifth and final phase, Reserve at Country Club Lakes Estates, was approved by Palm Bay under Ordinance 2021-69 for 199 units and is still delivering homes. Expect construction traffic and some unfinished streetscape. It also means new houses with builder warranties are still available.

Small by Palm Bay standards. Interior lots are platted at 60 feet wide and perimeter lots at 80 feet, working out to roughly 0.12 to 0.30 acres with about 0.17 typical. Houses reach 2,856 square feet on those parcels, so back yards are modest. Walk the lot line before you plan a pool.

Prices run from about $379,050 to $560,000, with roughly $461,500 typical and price per square foot near $211. The premium over older Palm Bay housing reflects that most of what sells has never been occupied. Two story plans with four or five bedrooms sit at the top of that range.

Around 50 days is typical, which is slower than resale neighborhoods nearby. That is a function of builder inventory rather than weak demand: a spec house sitting finished on a lot counts every day. Resale houses in good condition move faster than the community average.

Bass Pro Shops at 750 Bass Pro Drive NE, the Palm Bay Road NE retail corridor, and I-95 exit 176. US 1 and the Indian River sit a short drive east. For a subdivision on the newer end of Palm Bay, the everyday errand radius is short.
