About Daphne, Alabama Real Estate

Daphne, Alabama has a slower pace of life than most coastal cities. In the summer the day starts early, heats up till an afternoon thunderstorm comes in and rattles you around a bit, leaving the evening remarkably cooler for its trouble. At some point in the summer -no one knows exactly when or why- sea crabs, shrimp, and a litany of other ocean critters come up to the beaches in what’s known as a Mobile Bay Jubilee. As you might imagine, this natural phenomenon is typically followed by plenty of seafood feasts that bring the community together.

It gets hot and humid in Daphne, AL. So what? If you can put up with sunshine you’ll have a great time living here, appreciate the kindness and charity of the locals, and visit all the great beaches like Gulf Shores, just an hour to the south.

Daphne AL Real Estate Market

Though Daphne real estate is generally more affordable than the national average, the median price still hovers around $334K. The affordability of Daphne, AL comes not from the value of its real estate but its cost of living. Case in point: you’d have to search far and wide to find a cup of coffee for more than $3.

Though the median price for a piece of Daphne, AL real estate is in the mid $300 thousand range, about half of all Daphne homes for sale list between $130K and $240K. If you’re looking for that starter home, or you’re trying to downsize, then you should pay special attention to the Daphne real estate market.

Daphne is a big homeowner town, with nearly 70% of its residents owning their domiciles. Most of the homes here are relatively young, the majority of which were built post-1970. Just under half of Daphne homes feature three bedrooms, with sizable portions of the market featuring two and four bedrooms as well. Generally, the closer you live to the water in Daphne, the more valuable the real estate. To give you a better idea of what to expect of life in Daphne, we’ve put together a brief look at some typical neighborhoods in the area.

Neighborhoods in Daphne AL

Olde Towne Daphne

As you might guess, Olde Towne Daphne is one of the oldest parts of the town. If you want to stay close to local amenities, this is the neighborhood for you. In Olde Towne you’ll find modest one-storey homes for sale, and if you’re looking to develop some land of your own, there are several tracts of undeveloped real estate for sale ripe for the picking.

Austin Bridges

If you want to live further inland, Austin Bridges might be the best neighborhood for you. Here you’ll be a bit more “in the country” though you’ll still have that familiar suburban layout and feel. Head out your front door, though, and look down the street and all you’ll see is farmland. Homes here are larger and more modern, and you can take advantage of a community pool and tennis courts too!

Montrose Village

If you want to live right on the water, then Montrose Village is the Daphne neighborhood for you. Montrose is an old neighborhood, heavily treed which means plenty of valuable shade in the summer. Just about every seaward street in this neighborhood has a pier at its end. If you want privacy by the beach, Montrose Village can offer you both.
