And only minutes to the white sandy beach of Clearwater offering dining, shopping and laid back fun! Island Estates is one of the most sought-after enclaves in the Clearwater Beach region. Comprising four islands and a charming retail area that includes a unique Publix market and a variety of shops, it also features the amazing Clearwater Marine Aquarium, neighborhood eateries including the famed Island Way Grill. Seconds from the Clearwater Memorial Causeway and minutes from one of the most beautiful beaches in the world, biking and running trails, as well as Imagine Clearwater, the newer 24-acre waterfront park/plaza with covered amphitheater, this one-time hurricane shelter was purchased by residents in the early 1960s to create a distinctive dwelling. Nestled on the intracoastal, off Florida’s mainland, a panoramic water landscape lends the shoreline experience to this lovely 1 bedroom/1 bath home. The amenity-rich building includes private storage closets off every hallway to accommodate seasonal dcor and supplies, complimentary laundry rooms on each floor, boat slips on a first come first serve basis with an additional monthly fee, bike storage, a glistening geo-thermal heated pool framed by chaises, a fishing pier, grilling stations, and The Point: a waterfront structure that offers yet another tranquil place to unwind. An incredibly spacious lobby boasts comfy furniture, views of the pool, a secure package room, a lending library, a community kitchen, and a huge multi-purpose meeting room. A variety of clubs and activities are run by residents while several committees are available to feed your volunteer's soul. Impeccably managed by its full-time, onsite property manager and staff, the monthly fees include basic cable, lobby Wi-Fi, electric, water, sewer, trash, and building maintenance. The dedicated board of directors have initiated some tremendous cost savings and improvements to benefit the shareholders’ investment including energy efficient boilers, upgraded A/C and elevators, NEWER fitness center, NEWER entry security, and NEWER Miami Dade spec windows on the lobby level. Inside this cozy unit on the sixth floor, walk into the “wow factor” where floor to ceiling sliders reveal dramatic water vistas.
