Briarwood Manor
Briarwood Manor - Cocoa, FL
Briarwood Manor is located in Cocoa, FL, in central Brevard County, just under two miles north of SR 528 (the Beachline), tucked off scenic Indian River Drive. It offers classic Florida charm in a quiet, established setting. This neighborhood features only 27 homes, offering a sense of privacy and community. Most homes were constructed between the 1960s and 1980s, with a few newer additions built in the early 2000s, preserving the homes’ original construction without sacrificing modern comfort. Unlike newer developments that are built on cleared land, Briarwood Manor was designed to preserve the area’s natural character, with homes thoughtfully situated on quarter-acre lots or larger, shaded by mature trees and lush vegetation that reflect the beauty of old Florida.
The architecture leans toward mid-century ranch and 1960s–70s frame styles, with single-story floor plans, attached two-car garages, low-pitched asphalt roofs, and brick or wood siding. Interiors often feature open, flowing layouts with large windows that invite the outdoors in. Many properties also include private screened pools and patios, ideal for soaking up the Florida sunshine year-round.
Briarwood Manor includes a small voluntary HOA and offers access to a community observation dock and small boat launch, perfect for sunrise views and spending time on the water. With quick access to US-1, SR-528, Cocoa Village, and local parks and schools, the location is as convenient as it is scenic. Recent home sales in the neighborhood typically fall between $400,000 and $750,000, with homes ranging from approximately 1,500 to 2,800 square feet in size.
For buyers seeking a peaceful, well-established community that blends natural beauty, classic Florida architecture, and easy access to both outdoor recreation and city amenities, Briarwood Manor accommodates it all.
