Your own private Beachfront Home On the Sands of the Gulf. Can't get any closer

Beachfront Home 3 bedroom 2 bath Views overlooking the beach ! Some recent renovations completed. Nothing fancy about this beachfront home......BUT it is located on the most beautiful spot of the tropical barrier islands between Clearwater beach and St Pete Beach. Amazing beach views! Old Timers call this part of the island "The Narrows" where the sand is just wide enough for a single row of homes.

Ideal for a family vacation or for a Romantic getaway for 2. Step down from the back deck and stroll the sugar white sand beach. Fully equipped kitchen, 3 bedrooms 2 full baths, large living area and 2 decks overlooking the beach. Watch the sun melt into the Gulf of Mexico as the day ends. Relax and Enjoy our little slice of beach paradise.

The location of this property was PERFECT for our needs. The beach was steps away from the back deck, and the intercoastal for fishing was steps away from the front door. The beds were super comfortable, and we were close to shopping & restaurants. Thanks for having us!

Great location!

We had a great time staying here. The location is perfect to enjoy time out on the patio or a walk out on the beach. It was a little outdated but not a big deal! Especially with the ability to walk right out the back door to the beach. It had everything we needed for our stay!

Perfect place to stay when you don't want a crowded beach. We loved the quiet. Very nice to walk right out of the house, and be on the beach. Felt like a private beach! Great places to eat and shop right down the road!

Perfect location

Truly right on the beach. Could not be more perfect. The house is in need of updating but clean. The driveway was a bit stressful being very narrow, almost got stuck in sand and could only back out onto busy road. The town center is so cute and very close. We will definitely stay here again.

We had a great stay down in Indian shores. wife and kids had a few things to say about the house being dated, and some little things that need attention but it’s on the beach, and plenty of room for us. Simple check in. Location is what we went for and it’s in a great spot!
