PANAMA CITY BEACH — Ocean Mist, a gated community in Panama City Beach, held its grand opening last month to showcase 24 new lots ready for homes just east of Bid-A-Wee Beach.
The neighborhood features a community pool and is close to the beach and Pier Park. Homes will start at $245,000, with both one and two-story open floor plans available. The homes are being offered by Craig Duran of Pelican Real Estate.
"We have found that there are two distinct sets of buyers showing interest in our community ... those people looking for a low-maintenance, attractive primary residence, or someone looking for a true second home," Duran said. "With interest rates as low as they are, someone can end up with a payment of $1,500 or less and own a brand new home in a gated community, in a great location with a community pool and close to the beach and Pier Park."
