Neighborhood canals lead straight to the Intracostal Waterway.

A home along a canal comes with certain advantages, particularly when that waterfront is in an upscale community such as Vero Beach, Florida.
From a privacy standpoint there are no neighbors sharing a backyard border. Instead, a tranquil waterway acts as a natural buffer.
Living spaces open to a swimming pool and the canal front, which has a new seawall.

From an investment angle, homes on the water are always in limited supply—a fact that keeps values high.
From a recreational viewpoint, consider the fun factor. Access to water right outside the backdoor opens up endless possibilities for kayaking, boating, fishing or just watching the rising tide.
The 4,650-square-foot home is on a single level.
