Description

Located in the highly desirable Imperial Park community in Clearwater, this well-maintained 2-bedroom, 2-bath home offers a rare combination of curb appeal, long-term ownership, and a peaceful creekside setting, all in a non-flood zone. Lovingly cared for for over 20 years, the home reflects consistent upkeep and thoughtful improvements throughout. Major system updates include a full HVAC replacement in 2023, including air handler, condenser, ductwork, and insulation, a flat roof replaced in 2021, Water Heater in 2018, and a 2023 4 Point Inspection is available. The durable Palema-style concrete tile roof installed in 2003, is known for its longevity and classic Florida profile. Kitchen appliances have also been updated within the past few years, and the kitchen itself has been refreshed to serve as a functional central gathering space. Set on a nearly 1/4-acre lot, the property offers added space and privacy, that's enhanced by its natural creek backdrop. Positioned approximately 40 feet above sea level in a non-flood zone, Evacuation Zone D, the home provides additional peace of mind during storm season. Inside, the layout is both functional and flexible, featuring two bedrooms plus a bonus area sectioned from the garage, ideal for a home office, additional living space, or easily removed depending on preference. An indoor laundry room adds convenience, while three sliding glass doors lead to a Florida room overlooking the creek, creating a quiet space to enjoy natural surroundings and frequent wildlife sightings. Interior finishes offer an opportunity for personalization over time. The home provides a solid foundation with key systems already addressed, allowing for updates without the need for major renovation. Comparable sales within Imperial Park support continued value for buyers seeking both immediate livability and long-term upside.
