Property Description
Exceptional corner home in Surfside, located just in front of multi-million-dollar waterfront estates and within walking distance to the beach. Set on a desirable oversized corner lot, this residence offers more space and privacy than typical neighborhood homes. The beautifully maintained and partially remodeled 3/2 features a bright Florida Room filled with natural light, plus a fully equipped kitchen with an open pass-through to the dining area. A thoughtful layout places all bedrooms and bathrooms in a private, separate wing for added tranquility. The spacious garage provides rare potential, with plumbing for a bathroom and laundry room and a separate side entry-ideal for converting into an office, guest suite, or extra bedroom. Outdoors, enjoy a sparkling pool, soothing Jacuzzi, summer kitchen, and a large covered terrace perfect for relaxing or entertaining. With a 2019 roof and quality upgrades throughout, this home combines comfort, style, and prime location. Strong appreciation, high rental demand, and limited inventory also make it an excellent investment with solid long-term ROI potential.
