Exploring New Construction Homes in South Brevard: Crystal Bay Estates, Cypress Bay West, and Courtyards at Waterstone

If you're searching for a beautiful, brand-new home in South Brevard County, there are some incredible new construction opportunities available right now from top builders like D.R. Horton and KB Home. I recently toured three standout communities—Crystal Bay Estates in Grant-Valkaria, Cypress Bay West Freedom in Palm Bay, and Courtyards at Waterstone in Palm Bay—and each one offers something special for homebuyers at every stage of life.

Crystal Bay Estates – Grant-Valkaria (D.R. Horton)

Located off scenic US-1 in Grant-Valkaria, Crystal Bay Estates offers a quieter, coastal lifestyle with convenient access to both South Brevard and Vero Beach—without the traffic often found farther west. This community is ideal for buyers who want a peaceful setting near the water but still value accessibility.

Highlights:

• Affordable new construction homes

• Great for families, retirees, or first-time buyers looking for a quieter atmosphere

• Resort-style amenities: clubhouse with gym, pickleball, tennis, volleyball courts, and a sparkling pool

• Close to the Indian River and multiple public boat launches

Cypress Bay West Freedom – Palm Bay (D.R. Horton)

Situated near the new Heritage Parkway exit off I-95, Cypress Bay West is part of a fast-growing corridor of West Palm Bay that is shaping up to be a master-planned community similar to Viera—but with a much more accessible price point.

Highlights:

• Gated community with future resort-style amenities and clubhouse

• Lawn care included with low HOA fees

• Excellent for first-time buyers or retirees looking to downsize

• Easy commute to major employers like L3 Harris and Northrop Grumman
