    The county files Winthrop Place as two subdivisions, the original plat with 46 parcels and Winthrop Place 1st Addition with 93, for 139 distinct parcels in all. Of those, 137 are coded single family, one (Lot 1, Block 5 of the original plat, built 2005) is coded MFR HOME, and one (Lot 12, Block F of the first addition) is listed to the Okaloosa County Board of County Commissioners. On the county's drawn map the single-family lots measure between 0.20 and 0.35 acre, and all 139 parcels together cover about 30.7 acres.

    This is a late-1960s neighborhood with a few modern exceptions. Among the 137 single-family homes, 132 have recorded build years from 1966 through 1969, and 120 of those are 1967. Five are newer: 2014, 2016, 2017, 2019 and 2024.

    Seven streets carry the addresses: Marlowe Drive has 30, Newcastle Drive 27, Pelham Street, Surrey Street and Winthrop Street 18 each, Trenton Street 15 and Woodham Avenue 13. Each of the 139 parcels has exactly one county address, all labeled Fort Walton Beach, Florida 32547. That is a postal label rather than a jurisdiction: a point inside every one of the 139 parcels came back unincorporated Okaloosa County on the county's city-boundary layer.

    FEMA's flood map was checked against each parcel's own outline. No parcel touches Zone AE. Zone X splits into two labels here: 138 parcels touch the minimal-hazard area, and 42 touch the band marked 0.2 percent annual chance, taking anything from a sliver of a lot to all of it. Thirty-six of those 42 are in the first addition, and two lots, Lot 12 of Block A and Lot 16 of Block B there, sit essentially wholly inside the band. Neither label states an elevation, so an elevation certificate is the document for a particular house.

    The Winthrop Place search run on August 20, 2026 counted 35 sales and no homes for sale, with closings from June 4, 2016 to July 31, 2026. That is a dated count from listing records and does not line up with the 139 county parcels. Association authority, road ownership and covenants are not in these county records; the recorded plats are where to look.

    Winthrop Place FAQ

    How much is the HOA fee at Winthrop Place?

    No HOA fee for Winthrop Place 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.

    Why does the county list Winthrop Place under two names?

    The original plat and Winthrop Place 1st Addition are separate county subdivision entries, with 46 and 93 parcels. Both belong to the one neighborhood, and a listing can sit in either, so check which phase a lot is in.

    Which two Winthrop Place parcels are not single-family homes?

    Lot 1, Block 5 of the original plat is coded MFR HOME and was built in 2005, and Lot 12, Block F of the first addition is listed to the board of county commissioners with no building recorded. Every other parcel is coded single family.

    When were most Winthrop Place homes built?

    In the late 1960s. Of the 137 single-family homes, 132 have build years from 1966 through 1969, and 120 of those are 1967. The five newer ones date from 2014, 2016, 2017, 2019 and 2024.

    How many Winthrop Place parcels touch the 0.2 percent annual chance flood band?

    Forty-two of the 139, from a sliver of a lot up to the whole lot. The other 97 sit only in minimal-hazard Zone X, and no parcel touches Zone AE.

    What does a count of 35 sales and no active listings on August 20, 2026 tell a buyer?

    That the Winthrop Place search found nothing for sale that day, after 35 sales since June 2016. It is a snapshot from listing records, so it will not match the 139 parcels, and supply may have changed since.
