Imagine waking up each day in this charming corner pool home in Surfside, where the atmosphere is calm and relaxed, steps from the ocean, offering privacy, space, and a peaceful coastal setting. Situated on an oversized corner lot directly across from multi-million-dollar waterfront estates, this residence blends privacy, prestige, and long-term value. The beach, Bal Harbour Shops, Indian Creek Island — known as the “Billionaire Bunker” — parks, and local amenities are all within walking distance, creating a highly walkable coastal lifestyle. The home features 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms with an intelligent layout that separates the sleeping areas from the main living spaces. The spacious garage currently includes the laundry area and plumbing to reinstall a third bathroom, and it can be converted into an additional bedroom or flexible living space, offering the potential to create a comfortable fourth bedroom or expand the interior living area. A private side entrance provides additional flexibility for a home office, guest suite, or independent living space. Outdoors, enjoy a pool, Jacuzzi, summer kitchen, and covered terrace designed for year-round enjoyment and entertaining. With a 2020 roof, solid upgrades, limited inventory, and strong demand in Surfside, this property offers both lifestyle appeal and long-term value. Homes on quiet streets like this are rarely available.
