One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Turn-key charming Indian Rocks Beach waterfront home with no rental duration limits, ideal for buyers seeking a flexible short-term rental, a boating retreat, or an easy-care IRB beach house. This fully remodeled 2 bed/2 bath home plus large water-view flex room (17' x 13') sits on a wide, west-facing cove with panoramic waterviews, incredible sunsets, and easy access to the Gulf. Investors looking for the “perfect STR” will appreciate the move-in-ready condition, updates all permitted (roof (2023), impact windows (2023), all new doors and hardware (2025), electrical, replumbed piping, AC ductwork, lighting, kitchen, updated baths, plank tile flooring, and more), and the highly desirable location just minutes from Gulf beaches, restaurants, coffee shops, and waterfront bars. With no minimum stay requirement, you can capture weekend getaways, weekly vacations, and longer furnished stays, depending on your strategy and local rules. Boaters and water-sport enthusiasts will love the big-water feel yet the protected cove and the privacy of not facing neighbors like so many across some narrow canal. Step out to your updated seawall (2024) and brand-new dock (2025) with built-in bench seating, power, and water, then launch your boat, kayak, paddleboard, fishing or jet ski into calm bay/harbor water with direct access to the Intracoastal and Gulf. There is ample yard space to add a future pool overlooking the water, creating an even more compelling indoor-outdoor experience. Inside, the open floor plan was reworked to frame the water view. The kitchen features quartz countertops, new cabinets, and modern appliances, flowing into connected living and dining areas finished with tile-plank flooring, crown molding, and updated fixtures. Two updated bedrooms and two remodeled tile bathrooms that feel crisp and coastal, while the large 17 x 13 flex room with expansive water views can function as an extra sleeping area, office, media room, creative space or maybe a 3rd bedroom if you need it. Set near the end of a cul-de-sac, the home combines quiet with convenience. Indian Rocks Beach amenities nearby include local parks, a skatepark, public tennis courts, baseball fields, playgrounds, and green spaces, as well as easy access to everyday services. Tampa International Airport is roughly a 30–35-minute drive, making travel straightforward for owners and guests. Multiple medical centers and hospitals in the greater Clearwater–Largo–Tampa area provide access to quality healthcare while you enjoy the relaxed Gulf Coast lifestyle.
This recently remodeled home flooded and is being sold as-is for lot value. It has a superb SW facing, open water, 1,900-foot view across a wide bay, a 45-foot seawall with a new elevated large cap, and is on low-wake sailboat water. Immediately after Hurricane Helene, Servpro completed flood water mitigation, drywall, cabinetry, appliances, luxury vinyl plank flooring, and internal door removal. The remaining structure includes a new roof, hurricane windows, exterior doors, lighting, fans, crown moldings, AC ductwork, and replumbed and upgraded electrical panel. AC and lights operating. Occupancy Inspection issued on 10/14/2024. The virtual tour is a pre-flood video. ACV Appraisal available.
