Belleair Beach, FL 33786

What can I say about this one-of-a-kind beach home? For starters, Location Location Location! Forget having to pack up and load up the car to head to the beach. When you're half a block from the Gulf of Mexico, you can pack lightly or pack nothing at all! Run home in just seconds for anything you might need. And there are plenty of great options to grab a bite on Gulf Blvd. This rare private oversized beautifully landscaped lot backs up to a quiet one way lane. Take a right and head down the winding tree-lined pathway to the beach. Or go left and enjoy Brown Park with a gated playground and basketball court as well as tennis courts - Pickle Ball anyone? Here you'll appreciate one of only a few lots in Belleair Beach that does not back directly and get locked in with another neighbor. It is priceless - and a rear entry attached 2 garage means the front of the home is just that more inviting. This unique home, with driveways in front and back, is much more than the cozy cottage it appears to be from the front. The best kept secret is the expansive backyard space surrounded by a white vinyl privacy fence. The oversized screened pool enclosure provides a warm outdoor living room with custom wall murals where you may choose a relaxing evening or a fun night hosting family and friends as you watch TV from the heated pool or the living area. You'll also find a back storage room that doubles as an easy access dressing room for changing into your swimsuit. This backyard oasis includes a large yard perfect for your furry friends. This amazing vacation-like property is also very practical. With the rear entry garage and additional storage, you'll fit 6 or more vehicles in the back driveway and still have room to the side for your boat. The automatic sprinkler system on a well will make it easy to maintain your lush green lawn. Plus you'll love your outdoor shower. And to top it off, your washer and dryer is in the large indoor laundry room - complete with a laundry sink and additional storage. Let's not forget the home itself! This block 3/2 home offers more than just loads of character - it is a living experience like no other. You'll likely consider using this as an investment to bring in the big bucks, but you'll probably want to live here full time and enjoy! The primary suite's distinctive bathroom with custom Beachwood-like flooring and counters doubles as a piece of art. The main guest with a bathtub offers a fun surprise that you'll see when you visit. And note the Murphy Bed in the third bedroom which enables a flex space to use as an office, music room, work-out room, or anything else you desire. And you'll love roasting marshmallows in your indoor wood burning fireplace on those rare cold winter nights. So consider joining the special group of people who have been lucky enough to live in this beach cottage over the years. Your guests will love it, so invite them often, as everyone should get to experience this wonder!We feel so lucky we have called this gem our home. Our friends and family have LOVED it right along with us. And everyone is sad we are leaving. We will consider selling some furnishings for anyone that is looking for a furnished turn key home.
