About this home
Perfectly capturing the charm of a Key West-style bungalow while remaining on the mainland, this exquisitely renovated concrete block 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom residence blends refined design, modern comfort, and effortless coastal living. Tucked away in a peaceful setting yet just minutes from Clearwater’s premier attractions, the home welcomes you with an open-concept layout filled with natural light, elegant ceramic tile flooring throughout, hurricane-rated windows, designer quartzite kitchen countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a newer gas range. Natural gas service powers the tankless water heater and gas dryer, delivering both luxury and efficiency. Thoughtfully curated upgrades include a newer roof, updated HVAC system, refreshed fencing, and a whole-home water softener, creating a home that is as functional as it is beautiful. Every detail has been selected to provide a move-in-ready living experience.
