Water Oaks Homes for Sale

Living in Water Oaks

Water Oaks lies on the west side of Mussett Bayou Road, north of US Highway 98, and Walton County's address records give its homes Santa Rosa Beach addresses in ZIP code 32459. The final plat that came before the Board of County Commissioners on October 11, 2005 was presented as 45 single-family residences and 24 condominiums on about 9.85 acres. The county's subdivision header shows it recorded that same day in Plat Book 17, Page 19, taking in all of two earlier parcels.

The detached houses stand on 45 numbered lots along Water Oaks Loop, which the 2025 state parcel roll puts at roughly 3,900 to 6,300 square feet of land apiece. That roll dates the houses from 2011 to 2021, with most carrying a 2011 or 2012 year, and records living areas from 1,228 to 2,212 square feet. Several sizes recur on the loop: 1,339 square feet on five houses dated 2012, 2,026 on four dated 2011, and 1,464 on each of the five dated 2020 and 2021. County address records list a mix of one-story and two-story houses there.

The 24 attached homes that the 2005 minutes counted as condominiums appear on the county roll as numbered plat lots, each described as a townhome in Building 1, 2, 3 or 4, six to a building, under the use description townhouse. County address records give the four buildings the addresses 16 and 17 West Shady Oaks Lane and 19 and 20 East Shady Oaks Lane, each at two stories and six units. The state roll dates the townhomes it lists to 2014, each at 1,718 square feet of living area.

The county roll also carries one common-area parcel, described as all streets, common areas and limited common areas on the Water Oaks plat, in the name Water Oaks Owners Association. A not-for-profit corporation of that name was filed with the state a day before the plat was recorded and is listed as active.
