Wickham Lakes is 251 homes built roughly between 1997 and 2000, running about 1,241 to 1,905 square feet. It is one of the older established neighborhoods in Central Viera, and it sits within walking distance of a Health First facility and next to the Brevard County Government Center.
Wickham Lakes In Viera, Florida
Wickham Lakes came out of the ground around 1997 to 2000, which by Viera standards makes it old. That is the point. These are not compact new homesites, the trees are mature, the streets have settled, and you can see what the neighborhood actually looks like at twenty-five years rather than guessing from a rendering.
The community holds 251 homes running roughly 1,241 to 1,905 square feet with three to four bedrooms and two baths. That is smaller than most of what Viera builds now, which puts Wickham Lakes at a price point the newer neighborhoods cannot reach. For a first purchase in Viera, or for a buyer who wants the Viera address without the square footage, this is often the honest answer.
The location is quietly practical. Walking distance to a Health First medical facility, adjacent to the Brevard County Government Center, with shopping close. If someone in the household has regular medical appointments, that proximity is worth more than an amenity center.
The association is the Wickham Lakes Residential District Association, and its own site confirms the neighborhood sits under the Central Viera Community Association. Dues figures reported publicly vary widely, roughly $210 to $740, which almost certainly reflects different billing frequencies rather than different amounts. We get the actual current figure rather than repeat a range that wide.

Wickham Lakes Advantages
Mature Landscaping
Twenty-five years of tree growth. New neighborhoods take a generation to look like this.
Established Price Point
Smaller footprints from an earlier era open the Viera address at a price the current builders cannot match.
Walk To Medical
A Health First facility within walking distance, which matters more to some buyers than any amenity.
Next To The Government Center
The Brevard County Government Center is adjacent, so county business does not involve a drive.
Known Quantity
A neighborhood at this age has a track record. Roof ages, drainage behavior and resale patterns are all observable rather than theoretical.
What To Inspect
On homes of this vintage, the roof, the water heater and the original electrical panel are the three things we look at first. Age is an advantage on the street and a checklist inside the house.
