Bella Vita Homes for Sale

Living in Bella Vita

Walton County records Bella Vita Condo under subdivision series 12-3S-20-34900. The header date is January 15, 2003, in Official Record Book 2465 at page 1711, and the plat is carved from parent parcel 12-3S-20-34000-006-0010. The exact parcel prefix returns 50 features: 48 condominium units and one common-area parcel drawn in two pieces of about 3.28 and 0.26 acres. The two pieces share one parcel number, so they are not two extra units.

The legal descriptions identify units A-1 through M-3: four units for each letter A through J except that F has no F-1, and three each for K, L and M. The 2026 statewide roll repeats the 12-3S-20-34900 prefix with 50 rows for 49 parcel numbers. Forty-eight carry state use code 004 for condominium units and two carry 009 for the common area, each with Santa Rosa Beach, ZIP 32459 and Walton County situs fields, and all 48 units show a 2003 year built, matching the recording year. The common-area owner field reads Bella Vita Condominium Owners Association, Inc., which the state lists as incorporated in November 2002 and active. Those fields identify recorded rows, not current occupancy, dues, amenities, rental rules or availability.

The county address service is sparse. Of its 50 rows for the series, only one has a populated place and street value, Bella Vita Condo at 56 Blue Mountain Road, and the rest read No Address Assigned. The state roll adds unit identifiers to that same street address. A blank county address field is a data limitation, not an ownership or occupancy finding.

Walton County's flood data and FEMA's national map, each laid over the 50 Bella Vita outlines, divide them in exactly the same way. Seven of the 48 unit outlines touch Zone VE, at a base flood elevation of 11 feet, as well as Zone X, while 41 touch Zone X only. Sampling the seven shows the VE share is real rather than a boundary graze: roughly 16 to 66 percent of each outline. The larger common-area piece is about 41 percent VE, with base flood elevations of 11 and 12 feet, and the smaller piece is Zone X only. Because outlines straddle zones, a unit's own address and elevation certificate decide what applies to it, not this series-level split. County layers place the series outside any city limits with no planning overlay, and the zoning layer reads Village Mixed Use under Ordinance 2018-29 on all 50 features.

La Bella Vita Estates is a different place: a seven-lot plat recorded August 20, 2020 in Plat Book 22, page 85, under series 36-3S-18-16197, and it is not part of this page. A name search for Bella Vita reaches both. On August 19, 2026 such a search of Santa Rosa Beach dwelling listings found zero active and 37 sold, a dated observation that is not a count for the condominium alone. Use the exact prefix, the unit letter and number, the state roll address and the current flood map when comparing a property.
