Property Description

Designed for short-term rentals without restrictions: The townhome is set up to function as a primary residence or investment; the Zillow listing indicates that the community allows rentals without a duration limit, which is uncommon in Indian Rocks Beach, where the city enforces ordinances that limit rentals to less than 30 days in many areas. HOA with moderate fees: The MLS shows that the property has an association fee of USD 663 per month. This fee includes a reserve fund and the maintenance of the structure and green areas, as well as pest control. These coverages reduce recurring costs and protect the investment. According to the listing description, the fee is lower than that of many comparable homes, which improves the net yield of short-term rental. Value of new construction and flexibility: The home was built in 2024 and features an open floor plan, abundant natural light, a private elevator, and contemporary finishes. These features attract guests and future buyers. The fenced backyard with an outdoor kitchen and plunge pool, along with the oversized garage for beach equipment or golf cart, are extras that increase the value for vacationers. Indian Rocks Beach is a quiet coastal community between Clearwater and St.?Petersburg known for its laid-back pace and great dining. The beach stretches for miles and invites long walks, shell collecting and dolphin spotting, while nearby attractions include the Indian Rocks Beach Nature Preserve and the Seaside Seabird Sanctuary. Harbourside Marina offers 50 slips for boats up to 65?feet and onsite dining; visitors also receive discounted access to the adjacent Splash?Harbour Water Park with its 42-foot slide and lazy river. Additional water sports are available through local boat, kayak and paddleboard rental shops. Families enjoy playgrounds, mini-golf and a walking tour that features 14 historic sites. Popular eateries include Salt Rock Grill, Kooky Coconut and Jake’s?Coastal?Cantina, and the community hosts events such as the Taste of Indian Rocks Beach festival and an Oktoberfest with live music and a boat parade. Spanning roughly 3.5 miles along Gulf Boulevard, IRB offers continuous sidewalks, pedestrian lanes and crosswalks; those who tire can use the Beach Trolley. Water fountains, public restrooms and plentiful shops and restaurants enhance the walkability. Located about 27 miles (43 km) from Tampa and close to Clearwater and St.?Petersburg, IRB’s combination of natural beauty, recreation and moderate HOA costs makes it attractive for vacation homes and short-term rentals.
