Rio Vista Gardens market snapshot (as of June 25, 2026): the median sale price is about $415K ($200 per sq ft), with homes averaging 50 days on market and 8.0 months of supply, a buyer-leaning market (limited data). Based on 3 recent closings in live Daytona-area MLS data.
Rio Vista Gardens is an established residential neighborhood in Ormond Beach, Volusia County, set near the Halifax River and the South Yonge Street (US-1) corridor on the mainland, roughly 15 minutes north of Daytona Beach (third-party neighborhood profiles, 2026). It is a mix of single-family homes and some smaller multi-family and apartment buildings.
The setting is the draw: a quiet, riverside neighborhood near natural preserves with proximity to the Halifax River, while staying close to everyday conveniences. The South Yonge Street corridor nearby hosts long-standing local businesses, and the Volusia Mall, Daytona International Airport, and Daytona International Speedway are a short drive away.
Because the neighborhood mixes housing types and is not a single-product subdivision, pricing varies with home type, size, condition, and whether a property is near or has frontage on the water. Treat any single price figure as illustrative and comp the specific home against the closest comparable of the same type.
As a non-gated, mainland neighborhood, Rio Vista Gardens carries little or no community association overhead for most homes, so the carrying cost is mostly taxes and insurance. Buyers should pull the FEMA flood zone for the specific address given the river proximity, and verify school assignments by address.
