Overview

Set along the historic brick streets of Dunedin Isles, this property offers a rare combination of charm, space, and coastal proximity that is seldom found in one place.

Positioned on a double lot, the setting immediately feels different... more private, more expansive, with mature palms framing the home and a welcoming front lanai that captures the character of the neighborhood.

Inside, the layout is both refined and functional, with a split floor plan and a true guest suite that allows for comfort and privacy. The main living area is anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, adding warmth and a sense of permanence, while natural light filters through plantation shutters on every window, offering both style and timeless coastal elegance.

The kitchen is thoughtfully designed with a gas stove, breakfast bar, and seamless connection to the living areas... ideal for both quiet mornings and effortless entertaining.

The primary suite is designed as a true retreat... featuring a spacious walk-in closet and a well-appointed bath with a double vanity and a walk-in, wraparound Roman-style shower, offering both scale and a spa-like feel. Sliding glass doors open directly to the pool, creating a seamless transition between indoor comfort and outdoor living.

With a true split floor plan designed for privacy and ease of living. A dedicated guest suite offers comfort and separation for visitors or extended stays, while still maintaining a natural flow throughout the home.

The backyard unfolds into a private setting that feels intentionally tucked away. Palm trees surround the backyard in abundance, creating natural privacy and a true retreat-like atmosphere. The heated saltwater pool sits at the center, offering space to relax, unwind, or entertain without ever feeling confined... an advantage of the oversized lot.

For those who value both lifestyle and practicality, the property delivers... double gates with a dedicated pad for boat or RV parking, an oversized pull-through garage, and abundant storage space designed for real everyday living.

Homes in this location, with this level of land, access, and livability, are increasingly rare.

Steps from St. Joseph Sound, where evenings are defined by open water sunsets and dolphins playing just offshore. The Pinellas Trail is only a block away, and within minutes you’ll find yourself on the Dunedin Causeway, with direct access to Honeymoon Island, renowned for its pristine beaches, nature trails, kayaking, birdwatching, and family-friendly amenities like picnic areas, playgrounds, and a dog beach. The park also offers ferry access to Caladesi Island, another top-rated destination for outdoor enthusiasts. With nearby amenities including the Dunedin Marina, Hammock Park, and the Dunedin Fine Art Center, you’ll enjoy endless opportunities for recreation, relaxation, and cultural enrichment.
