About the owner: My name is Roz Diehl. I recently retired from being a reading teacher with Boulder Valley Schools after 30 years.We live in Colorado but come to Florida quite often. We have a weekly lawn service, maintenance man and housecleaner to help with all of our needs.
I enjoy the Colorado hiking club and volunteering for our church for Literacy and a foster children ministry. I also work at area food banks.
My husband Paul retired from owning his own painting company. He is quite handy and enjoys keeping the place up.

Why this property? It is on a barrier island called Orchid Island, It's gorgeous, the neighborhood is cozy and quiet old Florida, great neighbors, quiet and private, the sea oaks in the back are superb, as well as the Frangipani and Elephant Ear plants that thrive in our backyard. You will love our outdoor shower! There is a 350 square foot screened in Lanai with an open screened area at the end to look up into the sea oaks. It is in an old artist community next to Summer Place . Ride our Bikes to the beach in minutes. It is .5 miles to the beach. It is 2 minutes by car.
Watch turtles lay their eggs at night and return to the sea.
It is right by Disney Vero Resort and within walking and biking distance for pizza and subs, as well as bars and restaurants at Disney. There are character breakfasts at Disney on Saturdays for the kids. The environmental Learning Center is nearby, and you can bike by the Indian River Lagoon along the historic Jungle Trail. It is a short drive to Vero Beach Center for restaurants and shops, as well as bars and restaurants on the river in Sebastian. There is world class fishing and boating at Sebastian Inlet closely. Everything is open!
We found this place when we visited parents for years, and so we picked the best location by the sea for our second home,

Loved this house and location!


Apr 2024

We stay here every year Nov1st-Jan 1st. We love this Orchid Island incredible community tucked between mega resorts, the uncrowded beaches, the vicinity to the ocean and the river, the lanai, and boating at Sebastian Inlet. Did I mention the bikes?
There is no comparison with the mainland.
