Kelly Plantation Real Estate

Kelly Plantation is a classic luxury Gulf Coast destination. Spread across more than 900 acres of pristine beaches and forests just east of Destin, this development features a world-class Fred Couples 18 hole championship golf course and nine beautiful waterfront communities. Residents here enjoy easy access to the course and a wide variety of fabulous amenities, such as the extensive clubhouse, indoor spas, fitness centers, and pools. The Kelly Plantation real estate area also offers private boat facilities and miles of trails and undeveloped greenspace for jogging, biking, and walking – and, of course, the beaches. Kelly Plantation is bordered by Choctawhatchee Bay to the North and State Route 98 to the south, affording quick access throughout Northern Florida.

Finding a Kelly Plantation Home or Condo

Kelly Plantation homes range from large beach estates to expansive penthouses overlooking the sparkling Atlantic. The area also includes a wide variety of attractive golf course fairway-side homes with instant access to the community's centerpiece. Most of Kelly Plantation's nine communities are spaciously laid out, with abundant green space between buildings to ensure privacy and preserve the area's coastal beauty. Kelly Plantation MLS listings are generally priced starting at the low-luxury level and extending well into the millions for the finest properties.

Kelly Plantation was settled as a turpentine farm by the Kelly family in the 1930s, and remained largely undeveloped until 1991, when the family sold it to the Kelly Plantation Company. The original owners remained closely involved with plans for the new development, and their vision helped preserve this area's Gulf Coast charm. Mattie Kelly, who helped establish the old farm with her husband, oversaw the Kelly Plantation development right up until her death in 1992.
