:nono1: Here is a town that will suprise many of you in south Walton. Your 26 mintues to PCB and 25 mintues to Santa Rosa. Your right down the road from the Bay and your still close enough to the New Pier Park being bult in pcb. Your 17 mintues away from new airport and 3 miles away from the River for great fishing. Your close to some of the nicest springs in the state of FL and the property out there is breath taking over looking those steep head you can see for miles. The comunity has 3 churches and everyone takes turns and go to all 3 churches, alternate ing every week. Unusual yes but be aware it reminds me of mayberry rfd. At any rate this area is to be watched because people who get tired of living on the beach can get a break just 25 minutes away. Dont tell you and others dont get tired of it after awhile, I live on Grand lagoon not 20 ft. from the water and there are days I leave my shutters down. Its just nice to get away and not have to drive forever.:shock: any comments

Yes, Red Bay has those things, but prices in RedBay are similar to and higher than prices in Freeport, which is much closer to the beach.

yall ant nice r u ? No just making a comment about the place. My property out there I plan to hold on to for right now. I have 40 acres with a spring on it and a beautiful bluff that I'm going to build a home on in the near future. The place I want to sell is on the beach not my property in Red bay.:nono1:

Sounds like a good plan.

About the 4 million dollar house, I was just teasing, but most of the listed homes in RedBay are mobil homes and exceed $150K. Those mobile homes, like the $4 million home, include acerage. I think the $4 home sits on about 80 acres. Still, as I stated in my first post, land prices in Red Bay are for the most part, higher than in Freeport. I grew up in the country and enjoy that style of living, but I also enjoy living in SoWal, where it is only a quick trip to the beach.

Oh...I would expect you would have saved your adjectives to advertise the place you're looking to sell instead of using them to entice folks to a place you treasure because it's small, intimate, unknown and Mayberry RFD-ish.

:nono1: OK, my old high school chum wants to play dirty,not a problem. First of all Let me state that I'm not in the market to sell my place and my good buddy Steve who lives in Ponce de leon with those who he probally fits in with better than those he trying to sell property to down on the beach knows that. But he is technically correct. I tried to help my dad who has the beginning stages of alzheimers to sell his place by putting my place on the market for 90 days. If my good old high school chum would like to call the realitor listing my Dads property he would find out that I expressed absolutely no desire to sell my place but to send all offers of my place over to buy from my dad. But seeing how my old high school buddy steve wants to jump in and play captain rescue. let me say that its my opinion that he has no opinion that I would ever solicit. Without being ugly, for steve to do this means he doesn't play well with others. Of course living in Ponce De Leon what else is there to exspect. One thing he does know is My Dad and I have the have the prettiest peace of property in Walton County, including any thing thats on that beach and steve knows that but he wanted to come out and play dirty. I tried being nice about this,:pissed: but next time I'll get personal.

Ps this letter is not meant for anyone else who was poking fun at me. I too thought it was humorus and had great fun reading some of of the coments. It is dirrected only to my good old buddy steve .

Geeze Louise 2b, why are you being so secretive and getting your knickers in a twist over selling some property? Everybody is doing it :idontno: (well...trying to do it).

2fabian,
Now I'm totally confused. You sound like you are saying that you listed your property, which you have no intention of selling, so that any inquiries which might come about, could be directed towards your Dad's property. Why not just have your Dad list his property, if he is the only one who wants to sell? I don't get it.

So you are admitting that the first post was to excite potential buyers of your Dad's property. Interesting passive advertising.

So how high is the bluff on your dad's property?

I've been told it is the 2nd highest point in the state of FL. It makes the steep heads out in owlshead look like small hills. It has a view that can be seen all the way to hwy 79. No, I listed it for a short time because any way I could help my dad I was willing to try. But as far as wanting to sell it, my realitor has been put on noticed that the contract will not be renewed. Please don't get the inpression that what others were saying was not funny, I was just anoyed by my old high school buddy who new I was not actively trying to sell my property. At any rate what shelly wrote had me rolling on the floor.:clap_1:

I've tried to attach a northerly view from the Red Bay area. If you enjoy being off the beaten path but still want to be close to everything Red Bay is the place to be. Check out MLS 463496 for more pictures or for another 41.5 acres close to the one I think you are discussing at a list price of $449,000. I have lived in South Walton for a long time and would consider moving to this place for the privacy and absolute beauty of the area. This particular property has a fresh water spring as well as a 1 acre pond. I do not think that you can find a similar proprty in Freeport for a little over 10,000 an acre (or any other price for that matter)......?? The current Red Bay area kind of reminds me a little of Freeport about 10 years ago though.

Thank you for that beautiful picture. Yes Red Bay is definitely a place of beauty and is also a place where nice people live. I fail to see where anyone could find a place of such beauty for the price.

Thank you for those constructive comments Josh. For me to let you know what school I went to would take to long,but I am sure that you will see to it that your children have the proper amount of education to succeed in life.

I do again thank you for your kind words and wish you well.
