Dunedin Florida: Homes and Housing: Home for Rent

Getting back to homes and housing in the Dunedin, Florida area, here is a house in my neighborhood that is for rent. Or at least, it was when I took the photo! The sign said it had 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a 2 car garage. I am guessing it has about 1400 square feet of living space, maybe as much as 1600.

As for the neighborhood... well, you are about 7 minutes from the Dunedin Downtown area, driving. Also, about that from the Mease Hospital Dunedin. Another three minutes or so will get you to the Dunedin Marina. I would guess between 15 and 20 minutes from the Dunedin Causeway and Honeymoon Island. Right down the street, like a minute or two away, you will find Pizza Hut, Wendy's, Taco Bell, Papa John's, McDonald's and more. Three minutes away you are at Sweetbay, the grocery store, or at Ace Hardware. Oh my, where am I going with this? Oh yes, so it is a pretty good location. Close to a lot of things.

Oh, and perhaps most importantly... the sign says the rent is $1,295 per month. And I could go on and on about how close it is to things... like the mall, Westfield Countryside Shopping Town is only about 8 or 10 minutes away. So, just an idea of what is available. There are smaller homes in neighborhoods with smaller lots, and bigger homes with bigger lots, available throughout Dunedin and the surrounding areas. In the future, we will get to see more and more of them, so you can get an idea of what housing is like here... on the off chance you are thinking about relocation. :D

Dunedin Florida: Dunedin Causeway: Jet Skis!

Okay, at this point we know that you can sail off the Dunedin Causeway, in St. Joseph Sound or Hurricane Pass. We know you can ride bicycles on the Dunedin Causeway Spur of the Pinellas Trail. And I think I mentioned the jet skis... but I wanted to drive that one home to you. These things are fast and fun. At least, they look like a lot of fun.

Admittedly, I woul prefer a sit-down craft myself, like a waverunner. I can imagine that these get to be a bit much on the knees, with all that wave pounding, if you are not of an active nature. :) Either way, these two really seemed to be enjoying themselves. And there really is a lot of space out there, plenty of room for all manner of watercraft. So you definitely want to put it on your Florida Vacation list, or your after-relocation relaxation list, to check out jet ski or waverunner rentals.

Dunedin Florida Homes

Here is another fine example of the kind of housing we have here in Dunedin. This would probably be considered a typical home in a nice mid-level neighborhood. There are a number of homes available for sale or rent in this neighborhood. One just down the street, that is a little smaller, is selling for US$ 219,000.

From this spot, it is only a short drive to grocery stores, restaurants, various shops, and more. Just a little further, no more than 5 or 10 minutes drive, are the Downtown Dunedin area, Mease Hospital Dunedin, Westfield Countryside Mall, and much, much, more. Oh, and it might come in handy for you to know, should you be wanting to search for something in Dunedin, Florida, or map something here, that the zip code is 34698.

Dunedin Homes - WATERFRONT!

A beautiful example of Dunedin homes, Dunedin real estate. There are some fine, fine homes on the waterfront here. This house sits just across Edgewater Dr. from Clearwater Harbor. That is also the Intracoastal Waterway as it passes our area. Check below to see what their view is like. And yes, that's my shadow, stretching wraith-like across the road, reaching for the next good shot. The City Of Dunedin has done a great job of making this stretch of waterfront accessible. There is a beautiful walking/biking path right at the water's edge, complete with benches and trash cans. It makes for a wonderful place to catch the sunset... And if you are thinking relocation, this is a great place to sit and watch the boats go by.
