Bayview Homes for Sale

Bayview is a plat of single-family houses with Fort Walton Beach addresses that lies outside the city limits. Most of its 101 houses face Beachview Drive or Middle Drive, with the last 12 on 1st, 2nd and 4th Avenues and South Street; build years run from 1950 to 2025, the middle half of the lots measure about 0.31 to 0.37 acre, and stores and offices take the Eglin Parkway North frontage under county zoning. Flood exposure varies by street: 21 Beachview Drive lots reach coastal high-hazard Zone VE and all four 4th Avenue lots touch a special flood hazard area, against only five of the 44 on Middle Drive.

    Living in Bayview

    Bayview's parcel numbers all begin 01-2S-24-0180, and that block is the dependable way to separate it from Bayview Woods, Bayview Waters, Bayview Manor and Bayview Plantation, which the county indexes as separate plats. The county classes 101 of the 166 parcels as single family. The other 65 range from offices, one-story stores, restaurants and vehicle sale or repair lots to vacant commercial ground, a supermarket and two county parcels, and all 69 county address records on Eglin Parkway North belong to that group.

    Every one of the plat's 178 address records reads Fort Walton Beach 32547, yet the mailing line does not settle who governs the ground. Tested at a point inside each of the 166 parcels, Okaloosa County's city-limit map returns no municipality, and the county's zoning map draws its own districts across the plat: R-1 under all 101 houses, C-3 under 55 of the other parcels, and the remainder split among R-1, MU and INST.

    The houses are addressed on Beachview Drive Northeast (45) and Middle Drive Southeast (44), with the last 12 on 1st, 2nd and 4th Avenues and South Street Northeast. County build years run from 1950 to 2025, and 58 houses predate 1970. Lot sizes cluster, with the middle half drawn between about 0.31 and 0.37 acre and the full range running from about 0.14 to 1.01 acres; flood ground is what separates the streets. FEMA's national map puts special flood hazard area on 42 of the 101 house parcels: 33 on Beachview Drive (where 21 lots reach Zone VE, the coastal high-hazard category), five of the 44 on Middle Drive and all four on 4th Avenue.

    Listing records filed under the Bayview name, counted on September 24, 2026, held 16 closed home sales dated January 2016 through April 2026 and one active listing, a thin and aging sample beside 101 houses. These county map records do not address owners associations, deed restrictions or shared facilities, so those questions belong to the deed and title search on a particular lot.

    A 32547 mailing line does not put an address inside Fort Walton Beach, and Bayview shows it: every parcel lies outside the city. The Bayview market report gathers closings and listings filed under the Bayview name for the whole plat. Fort Walton Beach homes for sale and the Fort Walton Beach neighborhood guides cover houses beyond Bayview.

    How much is the HOA fee at Bayview?

    No HOA fee for Bayview has been reported on the MLS in our records. Whether a home belongs to an association, and what it charges, is set by that home's recorded covenants, so ask a licensed real estate agent or the association about the home you are considering.

    Does a Fort Walton Beach address put Bayview under city zoning?

    No. A point inside each of the 166 parcels falls outside every municipality on Okaloosa County's city-limit map, and the county's zoning map assigns the districts instead: R-1 for all 101 houses and C-3 for most of the commercial parcels on Eglin Parkway North.

    Which Bayview lots fall in Zone VE on FEMA's flood map?

    Twenty-one house lots on Beachview Drive Northeast and one vacant parcel with no address. Counting Zone AE as well, 67 of the 166 parcel outlines meet a special flood hazard area, including 42 of the 101 houses, and the other 99 parcels lie in Zone X. Check the map at the specific address, because the zone boundary crosses many of these lots.

    How is Bayview related to Bayview Waters?

    The county indexes them as separate plats, Bayview Waters under the parcel block 01-2S-24-0185 and Bayview under 0180. Among the county parcel legal descriptions, the only tie between them is one Bayview office parcel whose legal reads part of lot 5, block 5, not included in Bayview Waters.

    Where are Bayview's newest houses?

    Mostly on the Zone VE row. Of the 14 houses with county build years from 2000 onward, eight stand on the 21 Beachview Drive lots that reach Zone VE, and the other 13 lots on that row carry build years from 1952 to 1977.

    How big are Bayview's house lots, from Beachview Drive to South Street?

    Half of Bayview's 101 house lots fall between about 0.31 and 0.37 acre, with the smallest near 0.14 and the largest about 1.01 acres. Because lot size stays fairly steady across the plat, build year and flood category do more to separate one house from another.

    Does Bayview have a homeowners association or recorded deed restrictions?

    Okaloosa County's parcel and zoning maps do not address owners associations, deed restrictions or shared facilities. A title search on the particular lot does, so ask the title company to pull any recorded restrictions before closing.
