About this home
Absolutely charming North Beach quintessential cottage home has only had 3 previous owners in 85 years. Light, bright and airy it is ideally located near an intercoastal access and a short walk straight to Clearwater’s beautiful beaches. This home boasts the location you want and is surrounded by many multi-million dollar high value properties. The very livable courtyard shaped floorplan has an easy flow and great feeling that makes this home live much larger than it is.
Eat in Kitchen has two floor to ceiling pantry areas, north and east counter height windows plus a secondary side entry. The 87 foot long driveway features an offset for refuse/recycle containers plus kayaks which combined with a new circular front drive this property could accommodate up to 7-8 vehicles plus the 1c garage.
Spacious 450 square foot courtyard with shade arbor is a main attraction and highlights the outdoor Florida lifestyle it is visible from the entry, LR, Music/Office room, TV/sitting area and the Main Bedroom and Ensuite. The gated rear yard area off the courtyard provides ample room for a pool and decking.
Storm remediation is almost complete as this home sits on a crawl space which lessened storm damage. Some of the recent updates are.

The garage has a 121 sq ft laundry area with utility sink, a separate 3 x 8 cedar lined closet and 210 sq ft 1-c garage with an 8 ft wide door.
If you want a 3 or 4 bd/2 bath home then consider easily changing the 9 x 16 music room/office area into a 3rd bedroom with just a door and the 10 x 10 sitting/TV room could transition to a child’s bedroom immediately adjacent to the 170 sq ft Main Suite. The Ensuite has a walk in closet with window and 115 sq ft main bath area with freestanding tub, large custom shower and glass enclosure highlighted by an open beamed ceiling.
************
Adding a second story private Suite w rear facing balcony with almost 300 sq ft over would be fabulous.

What’s not to like about that at sunset!
