Experience the best of the Florida Gulf Coast lifestyle in this beautifully updated 5th-floor condo located in the sought-after Gulf Island Beach & Tennis community in Hudson, Florida. This light-filled residence offers an open, inviting layout and a private balcony perfect for enjoying breathtaking sunset views. Ideal as a primary residence, vacation retreat, or income-producing property. This spacious 2-bedroom + den condo was thoughtfully renovated in 2022 and features durable vinyl plank flooring throughout, updated cabinetry in both the kitchen and bathroom, elegant French doors, and electric blinds in the primary bedroom and living room, which remain under warranty. The sliders are hurricane-rated and include hurricane curtains for added peace of mind. The fully renovated kitchen showcases modern cabinetry, updated lighting, and a complete suite of upgraded appliances. The refrigerator was replaced in 2024, the dishwasher, microwave, and disposal in 2022, and the stove, washer, and dryer in 2025—ensuring all major appliances have been recently updated. Additional upgrades include a newer A/C system (2021) and a refreshed primary bathroom with newer shower tile and flooring. Outdoor living is enhanced with porch furniture (excluding the deck box) included with the condo, along with two Rubbermaid storage units conveniently located in the assigned parking space. Monthly HOA dues of $850 provide exceptional value and include water, Wi-Fi, cable, building insurance from the walls out, roof maintenance, exterior painting, 24/7 guard-gated security, and access to the community pool and amenities (electricity excluded). This private island community is surrounded by water and accessed through a 24/7 guarded entry. Residents enjoy resort-style amenities including a Gulf-front heated swimming pool, private sandy beach, scenic nature trail, waterside picnic areas, tennis and pickleball courts, fishing areas, and kayak storage rentals. Assigned boat slips in the community marina are occasionally available for purchase or lease. The Milestone Inspection has been completed and passed, with no increase in monthly fees or large assessments required or anticipated—an important advantage compared to many waterfront condo communities. Ideally located near waterfront restaurants and casual beach bars accessible by boat or car, as well as state beaches and parks, golf courses, shopping, and SunWest Park. With convenient access to Tampa Bay and the St. Pete/Clearwater areas, this community is truly one of the Gulf Coast’s best-kept waterfront secrets. Enjoy true Gulf-front living and nature trails along with a private beach. Schedule your showing today!
