Within walking distance, (1.1 miles,) from the iconic silhouette of the world-famous Don CeSar Hotel on the #1-rated St. Pete Beach, you will find this fabulous ‘casita' in the golfing and vacation community of Isla del Sol. Isla del Sol is a vibrant village of more than 3000 condominiums spread over some 290 acres that are surrounded by water. Amidst this vast collection of condominiums, there are only 22 of these stand-alone houses, making this a rare opportunity to own in the private enclave of Mirada Circle. While the style of the building is that of a single-family home with an attached one-car garage, the form of ownership is that of a condominium. This IS the best of both worlds! Here the privacy of no shared walls comes with the convenience and many benefits of the shared community expenses enjoyed in condominium ownership, such as: insurance, exterior building maintenance; landscaping; security; water; sewer; garbage collection; internet; pool and spa maintenance/repairs; etc., AS WELL AS, the accumulation of reserves to cover the numerous capital expenditures of homeownership, such as roof repair/replacement and painting/waterproofing, to name but a few! Additionally, only steps from your front doorstep, you have a lovely, heated pool and spa, as well as a clubhouse that is exclusively for the Vista Verde North Community. ALL of this is within walking distance of Pass a Grille AND only 15- minutes' drive to Downtown St. Petersburg or Ft. Desoto Beach & State Park! Isla del Sol enjoys varying minimum rental terms from 1 week to 1 month. Happily, for those who wish to rent, this property has a 1-week minimum. For those who do not care to rent, there is no requirement to do so. Indeed, the home may be Homesteaded! Whether you want to live here full-time or part-time and earn rental income when you are not in residence, this is an unusual opportunity to have it all! The downstairs area consists of the attached one-car garage and three principle and generously sized interior rooms, as well as a half bath and a ground-floor private patio area off of the living room and kitchen. Upstairs there are three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a generous western-facing balcony accessed via the primary bedroom. From this vantage point, you will be able to enjoy the fabulous hues of our world-class sunset skies! The primary bedroom also enjoys a large ensuite bathroom with soaking tub, shower, and double vanities. Other fabulous features of the home include the all-new impact-resistant, hurricane rated windows installed in 2021. This property, while original in its interior design, has had only one Owner since 1998 and has NEVER been rented during her period of Ownership. It has been lovingly cared for; and, for the most part, only occupied for the winter season by its Canadian mistress! Now, after 24 years, both the home and the Owner, are looking forward to their next adventure!
