    Living in Old Town

    Walton County's header for parcel series 22-2S-20-33120 reads Town of Santa Rosa, Plat Book 2, page 61, platted in 1912. The county's address records give that ground several names. Of 1,500 address records, 73 carry the place name Town of Santa Rosa and ten an Old Town spelling (Old Town of Santa Rosa, Old Town Santa Rosa Beach, Olde Town and Old Towne), while 1,392 leave the place name blank. A 2020 county solicitation for a stormwater master plan also calls the area the Old Town of Santa Rosa plat. Together those are the evidence tying the listing name to this plat, and none of them draws the label's boundary.

    The series is large and mixed. County outlines come to 1,425 pieces for 1,356 parcel numbers, spread across nearly a mile and a half by a mile. By county use code, 649 of the parcels are vacant, 415 single family and 216 mobile home; the other 76 are site improvements, parks, churches, nonprofit and government land and a few other uses. Florida's statewide cadastral lists 1,343 parcel numbers for the same series, with 14 present only in the county data and one only in the state's. Neither figure counts homes. Among the 413 houses with a recorded year, the state roll runs from 1901 to 2025 with a median of 2011; 145 date to 2020 or later and only 63 to before 2000.

    Laid over the county outlines on a 30-foot sampling grid, FEMA's national flood layer puts about 94 percent of the parcel ground in Zone AE at base flood elevations of 6 to 9 feet, about 4 percent in Zone VE at 9 and 10 feet, and about 2 percent in Zone X. A grid estimates how much ground each zone holds; it does not decide the zone of any one parcel.

    The August 20, 2026 Old Town search, limited to Santa Rosa Beach, found 14 closed sales and no active listing. It matched the words Old Town in the listing record rather than a parcel, so none of the 14 is confirmed to sit inside the 1912 plat. Nothing cited here establishes one association, shared amenities, private access, a single zoning district or rental terms across the series. Santa Rosa Beach is the mailing town on these records, and they draw no city boundary around the plat.

    Old Town FAQ

    How much is the HOA fee at Old Town?

    No HOA fee for Old Town 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.

    Which recorded plat does the Old Town name point to in Santa Rosa Beach?

    The 1912 Town of Santa Rosa plat, parcel series 22-2S-20-33120, filed in Plat Book 2, page 61. Ten county address records spell the area Old Town, and Walton County's 2020 solicitation for a stormwater master plan calls it the Old Town of Santa Rosa plat. The name has no boundary of its own in the records cited here.

    Why do county and state records give 1,356 and 1,343 parcel numbers for the Town of Santa Rosa series?

    The county series holds 14 parcel numbers that the state extract lacks, and the state extract holds one the county series lacks, which nets to 13. The records do not say why they differ. Neither total is a home count, because 649 of the county's 1,356 are vacant and 216 are mobile home parcels.

    How many Town of Santa Rosa parcels are vacant, and how old are the houses on the rest?

    By county use code, 649 of 1,356 parcel numbers are vacant, which is 48 percent, against 415 single family. Of the 413 houses with a year on the state roll, five date to before 1930, 63 to before 2000 and 145 to 2020 or later, with a median of 2011. A 1912 plat, in other words, does not mean an old housing stock.

    How much of the Town of Santa Rosa plat sits in a FEMA flood zone?

    Sampling the parcel ground on a 30-foot grid against FEMA's national layer gives about 94 percent in Zone AE (base flood elevations of 6, 7, 8 and 9 feet), about 4 percent in Zone VE (9 and 10 feet) and about 2 percent in Zone X. That is a share of ground, not a zone for any given parcel, which can differ from the share.

    What can 14 closed Old Town sales tell a buyer?

    Only how that search read on August 20, 2026. It matched the words Old Town in the listing record, not a parcel, and it covered Santa Rosa Beach listings only. The 14 are not confirmed to lie inside the plat, and the absence of an active listing that day says nothing about today.
