Mid-century Rockledge neighborhood defined by 1960s character and Space Coast proximity.
Levitt Park is an established mid-century neighborhood in Rockledge, Brevard County, developed by Levitt and Sons of Florida as the company’s first Florida project. Attracted by Kennedy Space Center expansion plans, the community was initially envisioned as a multi-section development, though only the Buckingham section was completed before the Space Center’s growth plans scaled back. The neighborhood preserves the architectural character of its 1960s origins, with homes featuring ranchers, Atrium Ranches, and Colonial designs typical of that era.
Homes in Levitt Park typically range from $305,000 to $410,000, reflecting the community’s appeal to buyers seeking established neighborhoods close to Space Coast amenities and Kennedy Space Center. The majority of homes are single-family residences built in 1964, with many subsequently renovated to include modern kitchens, updated HVAC systems, and pool amenities. Current listings show homes with three to four bedrooms, two bathrooms, and square footage ranging from 1,300 to 1,900 square feet. The neighborhood is not gated and carries no HOA fees, a feature that distinguishes it from newer planned communities in the area.
