Pros & Cons

Pros

Prime Beachfront Location & Views: The condo offers direct beachfront access with a 'sweet blue water view' from a bright, sunny unit nestled in the dunes, providing an exceptional coastal living experience.
Extensively Remodeled & Turnkey: The interior has been completely remodeled with a state-of-the-art kitchen, granite/tile counters, pristine tile floors, resurfaced ceilings, and updated bathrooms, making it move-in ready.
Flexible Usage Options: The property allows for versatile use as a primary home, long-term rental, or vacation rental, offering significant income potential and investment flexibility.
Comprehensive Community Amenities & Security: Residents benefit from 24/7 mobile security, an on-site fire department, and recreational facilities including tennis, basketball, and pickleball courts.
Excellent Accessibility & Inclusions: Features easy, no-stairs access from the parking lot to the front door, and includes furniture, window coverings, washer/dryer, and flat-screen TVs, enhancing convenience and value.

Cons

High Monthly Association Fees: The $632.0 monthly association fee is substantial and adds a significant recurring cost to property ownership.
Building Age: Constructed in 1973, the building is over 50 years old, which may lead to potential future HOA assessments for major structural maintenance or capital improvements, despite interior renovations.
Lower-Rated Local Schools: Several nearby public schools, particularly elementary and middle schools, have low ratings (e.g., 2 and 3), which could be a concern for families prioritizing school quality.
