Welcome to 1869 Southwood Lane, Clearwater, FL 33764, a clean and move-in-ready 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offering over 1,600 square feet of living space in the highly desirable Southwood community. Centrally located in the heart of Clearwater and zoned for some of Pinellas County's most sought-after schools, this home offers an outstanding combination of location, value, flexibility, and opportunity. Southwood is one of Clearwater's smaller, established residential communities, where homes don't come to market often. The current owners purchased the property as a second home and simply no longer have the need to maintain a residence in the area, creating a rare opportunity for the next owner to make it their own. The home has been well maintained and is clean, functional, and ready for immediate occupancy. Major improvements include a roof installed in 2022 and HVAC system installed in 2020, providing peace of mind while allowing the next owner to focus primarily on cosmetic updates and personal touches. Move in today and update over time, or renovate from the beginning to create a home that reflects your own style. Step inside through the welcoming entryway and discover a comfortable, functional floor plan with plenty of room to spread out. The home features a formal dining area, an eat-in kitchen, and a spacious living room, providing distinct areas for everyday living and entertaining. All three bedrooms are generously sized, including a comfortable primary suite, while two full bathrooms complete the interior layout. The outdoor space is another standout feature. A sizeable covered porch/lanai provides an ideal setting for morning coffee, outdoor dining, grilling, or entertaining friends and family while enjoying Florida's year-round weather. Beyond the lanai is a large backyard offering plenty of room for pets, play, gardening, outdoor activities, or creating the backyard retreat you've always wanted. Whether you're a first-time homebuyer, seasoned homeowner, second-home buyer, or real estate investor, this property offers tremendous versatility. Its location in unincorporated Pinellas County may also provide greater flexibility for short-term rental use, subject to applicable county regulations, licensing, and requirements. The seller has carefully considered both the home's current condition and today's Clearwater real estate market and has priced the property accordingly. Rather than paying a premium for someone else's renovations, buyers have the opportunity to purchase a solid, well-maintained home with major components already addressed and make cosmetic improvements according to their own timeline and taste. Conveniently located near shopping, restaurants, parks, recreation, major roadways, Tampa International Airport, St. Pete-Clearwater International Airport, and the world-famous Gulf beaches, 1869 Southwood Lane puts the best of Clearwater and Tampa Bay within easy reach. Newer roof, newer HVAC, large backyard, covered lanai, spacious bedrooms, multiple living and dining spaces, an established Clearwater neighborhood, and potential short-term rental flexibility-this home offers location, value, and opportunity.
