Description of 897 POINT SEASIDE DRIVE, CRYSTAL BEACH, FL 34681

CRYSTAL BEACH LIVING AT ITS FINEST – A PRIVATE, ELEVATED COASTAL RETREAT. Tucked within the exclusive Point Seaside enclave of Crystal Beach – home to just 49 residences – this exceptional property offers a rare level of privacy, character, and luxury. Positioned just minutes from the Crystal Beach Pier and Live Oak Park, you’re immersed in a setting where breathtaking sunsets and a vibrant coastal lifestyle converge – complete with community events, waterfront gatherings, and the unmistakable charm of Old Florida. Perfectly situated to feel worlds away, yet minutes from the energy of downtown Palm Harbor, Honeymoon Island, and the Pinellas Trail connecting Dunedin to Tarpon Springs, this golf-cart-friendly community offers a lifestyle defined by simplicity, beauty, and connection. Days here are spent on the water, along scenic shoreline paths, or unwinding beneath glowing Gulf Coast skies. Spanning approximately 3,600 square feet, this 5-bedroom, 3.5-bath Key West-style residence with high-end finishes throughout is designed for both refined living and effortless entertaining. Soaring 10-foot ceilings and thoughtfully curated updates create a home that feels both elevated and inviting. At its heart, a fully reimagined chef’s kitchen serves as a true focal point - featuring an expansive island with quartz countertops, striking tile flooring, Café stainless steel appliances and a double oven setup – seamlessly flowing into the main living areas for a natural, open-concept experience. The spacious primary bedroom on the top floor features a walk-in closet with a California Closet system, two additional built-in closets, and an spa inspired en-suite bathroom with a separate soaking tub and shower. Outdoors, a private sanctuary awaits. A spacious covered balcony overlooks a lush nature preserve, offering a sense of seclusion rarely found in coastal communities. Below, the fully fenced backyard is a tropical retreat, complete with a pebble-tec pool, ambient landscape lighting, and a newly installed heater for year-round enjoyment. A front-facing balcony provides the perfect vantage point for evening sea breezes and the vibrant sunsets that define life on Florida’s Gulf Coast. A truly rare offering, the expansive 6-vehicle garage accommodates 5 cars plus a golf cart with ease, complemented by showroom-quality epoxy flooring and a dedicated 240V circuit for electric vehicle charging – ideal for collectors and enthusiasts alike. Elevated construction enhances both presence and peace of mind, with transferable flood insurance currently under $550 annually – and exceptional advantage for waterfront living. Additional enhancements include a 2022 Owens Corning roof system with lifetime shingles and storm guard underlayment, further reinforcing the home’s quality and longevity. Whether hosting under the stars, enjoying quiet mornings overlooking preserved land, or setting out for an evening along the water, this residence captures the essence of Crystal Beach living at its most refined. And the cherry on top? Crystal Beach is zoned for the most coveted schools in the area, including Ozona Elementary and Palm Harbor University! This isn’t just a home – it’s a lifestyle. And opportunities like this to own a piece of paradise in Crystal Beach don’t come around often.
