West Bacon Home Sales for March

West Bacon News has three home sales to report for the month of March.

Just west of 441 in the 33428 zip code, 21345 Straw Lane is the first house sold in PL Homes new Sandalstraw community. The developer purchased approximately fifty trailers and is replacing them with upscale luxury homes.

This 3-bedroom, 2-bath model sold on the 27th for $47,999 through an unusual quitclaim deed. Construction went quickly as GL smartly brought in a straw bale assembly team from Nebraska.
The development is a great location with an easy walk to Publix, the Cumberland Farms gas station, and the Western Bacon supermarket in Sandalfoot Plaza. Some homes, including this one, have a delightful view of the KKK guy’s trailer. We’re pretty sure he likes bacon.
There was some opposition to this project, particularly from the West Bacon Community Council. WBCC President Sheri “Big Bad” Wolfborough expressed concern about preservation of the trailers as an essential part of West Bacon’s history. She relented after PL hired former county legislator Burt Baconson to keep an eye on it. They also agreed to name their community center the Reich-Winikoff Clubhouse.

A few days earlier Bacon Isles North saw 7890 Wood Court sell for $390K. Built in 1997, the 4-bed, 2 1/2 bath house is all on one floor. The gated development is on the west side of Cain near Yamato in the 33498 zip code. The home previously sold in 2005 for $936K, and back in 1997 it was bought new for $129K.

And just yesterday, 47832 Brick Lakes Drive sold for a cool $2.3 million. With 4 bedrooms and 8 full baths, the house is in The Bricks, a gated development just north of Clint Moore near the Turnpike. The HOA made national news when they added armed guards and a team of security boars due to fears of a large and aggressive canine that was seen on the nearby Spanish River High campus.
The Bricks is known locally for the concert series they run. Tonight the Commodores will be performing, with special guest appearances including Nicole Richie and Kevin Bacon.
