Derbys Addn To Cocoa is a small, older pocket near downtown Cocoa where price is driven far more by condition and lot than by any published range. With a median around $339,500 and a median of roughly $320 per square foot, the per-foot figure is doing a lot of the talking here — it points to smaller, character-heavy homes where a renovated property and a tired one can sit worlds apart in value despite similar footprints.
The market posture is fast. A median of three days on market tells you well-priced listings move almost immediately, so buyers need financing lined up and decisions made before they tour. For sellers, that speed is real leverage, but it rests on a thin base of closings, so one or two atypical sales can swing the median. Price to the condition of your specific home, not to a neighbor's headline number.
The 60-Second Overview
Derbys market snapshot (as of September 20, 2026): the median sale price is about $265K ($315 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), and a median 4 days on market for closed sales.
This is a compact, established neighborhood inside Cocoa proper, close to the downtown core rather than a master-planned subdivision. Expect individual older homes with real variation in condition, not uniform product.

Who Derbys is best for.
Best for
- Buyers targeting the mid-$300s who value proximity to downtown Cocoa over a large lot or new construction
- Renovation-minded buyers comfortable pricing a home on its condition rather than a neighborhood average
- Decisive buyers with financing ready who can move within days of a listing hitting the market
Probably not for
- Buyers who need a wide, predictable price range and lots of inventory to compare
- Anyone wanting move-in-ready uniformity typical of a master-planned community
- Buyers who require a long, unhurried timeline to deliberate on offers
Price History: What Homes Here Have Actually Sold For
Median sale price over the trailing 12 months ending September 20 of each year, from record-level Space Coast MLS closed sales. Same methodology as every appreciation figure on this page: the 2026 point ($265K) IS the median in the snapshot above.
Windows contain 0 to 5 sales each (5 in the current window); every figure carries its sample size, and thin markets swing on single closings. Based on information from the Space Coast MLS for the period 2005 through 2026. Deemed reliable but not guaranteed.

The Derbys buying strategy.
If we were buying in Derbys today, this is the order of operations we would run for our clients.
Underwrite the condition first. Price the roof, HVAC, and systems honestly before judging any list price; condition swings value here more than square footage alone.
Match the home to real comps. Recent sales of similar condition and lot, not the asking price, tell you what a home is worth.
Move deliberately, not desperately. Neither side has a decisive edge, so a well-prepared, fairly-priced offer wins without overpaying.
Line up financing and inspection early. A pre-approval and an inspection plan let you act fast and negotiate from evidence.
Keep an agent in your corner. The listing agent works for the seller; we represent you and prepare a hand-built valuation before any offer in Derbys.
A condition-driven micro-market
The single most useful fact here is the elevated price-per-square-foot against a moderate median: it signals smaller homes where finishes and updates carry the value. In a market like this, comps are only as good as the renovation state behind them. Two houses on the same block can justify very different prices, and the median alone won't tell you which one you're standing in.
The three-day median on market means there is little room to test a high number and reel it back in. Overpricing costs momentum in a neighborhood where the strongest signal to a seller is speed. Buyers should treat this as a market that rewards preparation over patience — pre-approval, an inspection plan, and a clear ceiling before the first showing.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Derbys. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
