Dunedin, Florida: Homes & Housing II

Click for larger picture in a new window

Another neat little home in Dunedin. Just down the street, off the main road, in a quiet little neighborhood of smaller homes. This one appears to be even smaller than the one posted Saturday.

It looks as though the front lawn might need some TLC. I like that it has a porch, though. I think that is important to make a house a welcome home. Isn't that right, Felicia? :)

Dunedin, Florida: Bed & Breakfast; The Meranova Guest Inn

Click for larger picture in a new window

This is just small taste of what the beautiful Bed & Breakfast, The Meranova Guest Inn, looks like. For the real downtown experience in Dunedin, Florida, staying in the Meranova is a great choice. This beautiful place is smack dab in the middle of the Downtown Dunedin.

From the Meranova, you are in walking distance from lots of wonderful places to shop, eat, or just enjoy. From the Dunedin Marina to Pioneer Park and more. There are galleries, gift shops, restaurants all around. Some that we have mentioned here before include Cafe Alfresco, The Black Pearl, Casa Tina, and Deli News Cafe (not mentioned before).

I can't say I have ever stayed there, but it looked great when I walked around the place. So you might just want to check out their website if you are making plans to visit Dunedin or the Clearwater area. Just a thought.

Dunedin, Florida: Homes & Housing

Click for larger picture in a new window

I passed this little house while on a walk the other day. I thought what a cute little home. Dunedin has some wonderful neighborhoods that are filled with older homes that come from a time when they did not build them quite so big or so fancy. But they built them cozy and cute and homey.

It pays to get off the main drag and see what the neighborhoods around you are like. It's good to know there are neat little houses out there. After all, you never know when you are going to be in the market. In fact, there is a little house down the street from this one that is one the market for US$188,000. That's a lot in some parts of the country, and not much at all in other parts. What's it like where you live?

Dunedin, Florida: International Mall Field Trip!

Click for larger picture in a new window

International Plaza, International Mall, whatever you want to call it... is still a big, fancy mall with a lot of cool stores, located just across the bay in Tampa. With all the neat stores, I just couldn't resist taking a picture of this dining court area. Not quite the food court, but arranged so you could bring food from nearby to sit and eat. I like it. Yes, that is a Starbucks coffee shop at the top of the picture! You might need some coffee as you make your way through the likes of Nordstrom, Dillard's, and Neiman Marcus!

This is a pretty cool mall, with a sort of add-on called Bay Street. Bay Street is like walking down some cool downtown area with neat shops and restaurants. Some of the restaurants include The Cheese Cake Factory and The Gallery Eclectic Bistro, where we ate that day. It was very good! Oh, and let's not forget the bar... The Blue Martini. The Blue Martini is very popular around here, featuring "25 superior martinis made to excite the senses and elevate the spirit".

Dunedin, Florida: The Welcome To Dunedin Sign

Click for larger picture in a new window

I was so surprised and chagrined to realize that after 70 posts, I still had not posted a picture of this sign. You can find these signs in a number of places around Dunedin, at the edges, I should say. You can see the Christmas decorations on this one still.

This is just another thing that the City of Dunedin has done so well. They have branded this little city, in a way. Around here, when you see this sign, even if the lettering were gone, you would know it was the Welcome To Dunedin sign. Pretty nice work if you ask me.

And speaking of things the City of Dunedin has done right... Dunedin’s Fifth Annual Diverse-City Week kicks off with a full day of events on Saturday, January 19th. They really put on quite a few Diversity events. Click here to get more information from the City of Dunedin website. While you are there, scroll down a little further for information on a free Sustainability seminar on Energy Conservation.
