1107 S PROSPECT AVENUE CLEARWATER FL 33756 MLS #U8251940

Want to be close to the beach but safe from storms? This sturdy home is located in a “high and dry” non-evacuation, no storm surge area, yet is just 10 minutes from beautiful Clearwater Beach. The storms of 2024 caused only minor landscape problems, and the power never went out. (Plus Duke is in the process of putting electric lines underground!) Do you love the vintage charm of an older home, but not the million-dollar-plus prices? Just a half mile away from the million dollar plus price tags of Harbor Oaks is this 1925 Craftsman-style house in Magnolia Heights. And, just like three for-sale homes in Harbor Oaks, this one has a GUEST HOUSE. Enter through the sunroom, the perfect place for watching sunsets. Continue through the living room, with its unique ceiling fan and Craftsman fireplace, on to the first floor primary suite featuring a large dressing room and modern bathroom along with a bright bedroom, complete with ceiling fan. Down the hall is the large kitchen with enough cabinets to accommodate all your kitchen items, many with glass doors. Plus a pantry! Included are the stove, refrigerator, dishwasher, and washer/dryer. Continue to the dining room with a unique ceiling fan where you can celebrate holiday dinners in style. On the second floor you’ll find a large sitting room, two bedrooms, and a full bathroom with newer sink cabinet and fixtures. Plenty of storage space that is all walk-in – no ladders to pull down! Out the hall door is a balcony overlooking the lush back yard – another pleasant space to sit and enjoy coffee or cocktails. Walk down the backyard path past the hurricane-rated carport and you’ll come to the GUEST HOUSE. This building has a one-bedroom apartment with a large bedroom, full bath, living room, kitchenette and its own private patio. A wonderful place for your guests to stay, or for a hobby space. Or you could rent it out for extra income! This neighborhood is quiet and on a bluff. There is no HOA. The main house has two HVAC systems, one for each floor. The guesthouse has its own system. BRAND NEW HURRICANE-RESISTANT ROOFS, wind resistant to 150 mph winds on both the main house and the guest house. (The roof warranty is transferable.) It is just 10 minutes from beautiful Clearwater Beach, 10 minutes from the music venue The Sound, which is right next to a large public library, and blocks from the Pinellas Trail for walkers and bikers. Grocery stores abound nearby as do top notch medical facilities. A peaceful spot to enjoy life with quick access to everything else you need.
