The Scenic Bluffs neighborhood is located alongside the Escambia Bay in northeastern Pensacola, Florida. Residents of this coastal community enjoy salty breezes and scenic views, as well as proximity to outdoor activities such as boating and fishing. This neighborhood is only seven miles, roughly 15 minutes by car, from the central downtown Pensacola area, and convenient to the city’s regional airport. It is part of the 32504 zip code, within Escambia County.
The bay provides this community’s eastern boundary, and US Highway 90/Scenic Highway creates its western boundary. The local railway traverses this neighborhood, separating the community’s eight residential lots from the partially-wooded beach. The spacious home sites here are quite heavily wooded and accommodate rather impressive homes and backyard swimming pools.
Real estate this close to the bay is certainly desirable, but Scenic Bluffs offers more than water views; the community is just minutes from the airport, which is surrounded by shopping, dining and entertainment options, such as the popular Cordova Mall. A major medical center is also located in this area.
Students living in this community are only a short drive from many renowned schools, such as Cordova Park Elementary School, Workman Middle School and Washington High School. College-bound students have options within a few miles of home, including Pensacola State College and Pensacola Christian College to the southwest, and the University of West Florida to the northwest.
This lovely community is also convenient to several area parks, including the Eastgate, Hitzman Optimist and Lavallet Parks. Lavellet is the largest park in the area, spanning approximately five acres and offering a walking path, picnic shelter and playground equipment, as well as plenty of green space to explore.
