Property Description
Under contract-accepting backup offers. Welcome to 1609 Scott Street, where a majestic mature banyan tree creates a warm welcome while adding distinctive character and providing abundant shade. Centrally located in a tranquil neighborhood, the home is approximately 8 minutes from Downtown Clearwater, 10 minutes from Downtown Dunedin, and less than 15 minutes from the beach, putting you close to everything the area has to offer. It is also zoned for highly rated Skycrest Elementary and Dunedin Highland Middle School. Situated in unincorporated Pinellas County with no HOA, the property offers flexibility for use as a primary residence or short-term rental. The home is located in non-flood Zone X and outside a designated evacuation zone. It is fully wind-mitigated with Simonton StormBreaker Plus impact windows rated for winds up to 200 mph and PGT impact-rated doors ($35,000-$40,000 value), providing added protection and peace of mind while also making the home eligible for meaningful wind-mitigation discounts on homeowners insurance. Major updates include a 2022 roof, 2018 HVAC system, and 2021 water heater. The spacious backyard is designed for entertaining and gardening. It features an outdoor kitchen with a grill, sink, and prep station, along with a large screened patio for relaxing and evening gatherings. A walk-in greenhouse and raised garden beds are currently used by the owners to grow flowers and ornamental plants, offering the next owner the opportunity to continue gardening or repurpose the space. Inside, the kitchen features black quartz countertops, newer appliances, and a movable butcher-block island, with both the island and Samsung Bespoke refrigerator included in the sale. Additional features include a whole-house water-softener system, one-car garage, and included washer and dryer. The outdoor furniture, grills, and prep station will also remain with the property. With a few cosmetic updates, this property offers exceptional value, potential, and flexibility for its next owner. Schedule your private showing today!
