About this House
A rare opportunity to purchase this unique, charming, and beautiful property, ideally located just two blocks from Main Street in quaint Downtown Dunedin. You are also only one block from the Pinellas Trail and the waterfront, and walking distance to the Blue Jays stadium. Built in 1900, the main home is historic Dunedin at its best, and it has been tastefully updated to maintain that historic charm. The property consists of the Seahorse Cottage, a 3-bedroom, 2 1/2 -bath home (1447 square feet), the Seaside Loft, a 2-bedroom, 2-bath apartment above the garage (846 square feet), and the Tree Top, a studio apartment on the second level of the main house with separate stairs/entrance (191 square feet). The flexibility of these three spaces allows you to utilize this property in many ways. You may choose to live in the Seahorse Cottage while renting the other two apartments. Or, save one or both of those for your parents, family, etc. You can rent all three spaces! Or, keep them all for yourself! The zoning even allows conditional use as an owner-occupied Bed and Breakfast. The potential leasing income in this location is impressive. All three offer unusual landscaped privacy with an intimate connection to both the downtown and the waterfront marina and park (St Joseph Sound). The Seahorse Cottage still has its original heart-of-pine wood floors throughout much of the house, in addition to impressive custom woodwork in all rooms. Kitchen features include granite countertops, SS appliances, breakfast bar, walk-in pantry, and abundant storage. A French door from the dining room leads out to the Tyvek deck for morning coffee (or evening wine). The bright, airy, and spacious master suite was added in 2011. You will love the hardwood floors, walk-in closets, ample windows, and plantation shutters, not to mention the steam shower (complete with multiple jets and LED lighting) in the bath. The current owners' happiest times are spent on the huge screened front porch, or the deck off the dining room. It is there that they enjoy the lush and varied landscaping that they have cultivated during the past ten years. All varieties of birds and butterflies also love to stop by. It is a serene and beautiful space. When they are on the front porch, the screen allows them to watch the vibrancy of Downtown Dunedin, without anyone being able to see in. Access the Tree Top using the ivy-covered stairs in the pavered courtyard off the kitchen, and enjoy a roomy, but cozy, studio apartment with bathroom and kitchen. There is additional space that can be finished to your tastes. Finally, another stairway in the courtyard leads to the Seaside Loft, the perfect space for leasing, out-of-town guests, or family. The courtyard measures 48 X 19 feet, and includes seating, a community barbeque area, and a laundry room for guests. All of this within easy walking distance of Downtown Dunedin's 8 breweries, 35 restaurants and bars, and unlimited shopping. Ready for the beach? Clearwater Beach and Honeymoon Island are less than 15 minutes away. The perfect home in the perfect location!!!!
