(Your First Mortgage)

Nestled on the glittering expanse of Florida’s intracoastal waterway is this spectacularly renovated 2 bedroom/2 bath condo. Not a detail was overlooked, nor was an expense spared in transforming every square inch of this picturesque residence. Bordered by two balconies (203 sf and 161 sf), the entire interior was treated to gleaming travertine flooring. Besides Impact doors and windows, the exterior sliders were outfitted with electric shades. Framing the home’s elegant, modern aesthetic is custom wood trim offset by mirrored accents, while every room is topped with crown molding and finished with 5.5” baseboards. Just beyond the foyer is a striking formal dining room and living room area lending pure elegance to this waterfront condo. Flooded with natural light, it presents superb floor to ceiling water views just beyond its balcony. Adjacent to the airy family room featuring a pair of balcony sliders and abundant space for relaxation and entertaining, is the kitchen that was thoughtfully designed and is a chef’s dream space. Luxury fittings by Brizo are set against a full complement of custom cabinetry contrasted by quartz countertops and KitchenAid brand appliances including an induction cooktop. From the dramatic center island to the custom-built wet bar’s LED lighting, undermount frig, storage, and glass shelving, this sleek space is ready for its Architectural Digest debut. As for the amenity-rich master suite, it has everything you’ve come to expect in a remodel of this scale: ample room for your furniture, access to your private balcony, more custom cabinetry and quartz, an indulgent shower room, dual sinks, and two walk-in closets; all enhanced by the subtlety of recessed lighting. The guest room is a lovely retreat dressed in plantation shutters with its own well-appointed bath. Both bedrooms are wired for ceiling fans and both baths boast Brizo fixtures. The laundry room was given the same discerning design treatment with its stacked washer/dryer by LG, custom cabinetry, utility sink, and handy built-in ironing board. A NEW Trane A/C with smart thermostat was installed in 2021. In addition to the convenience of under-building parking for residents, you’ll also enjoy additional storage in the garage area, an elevator, community pool, and party room. Recent building improvements include: NEW seawall (2021), NEW roof (2022), and NEW pavement (2023). When you DO decide to venture beyond these splendid borders, you’ll find yourself close to the popular Belleair Country Club, less than a mile to top-notch medical facilities and Morton Plant Hospital, and just a walk to downtown Clearwater with its scenic Coachman Park and The Sound. Minutes from restaurants, retail, the famous Clearwater Beach, and a 35-minute drive to Tampa International Airport, you’ll want for nothing in this exquisitely crafted paradise.
