About 15-2731 Popaa St
Rare opportunity for a popular, FULLY FURNISHED, turnkey, licensed STVR in "the Clearing"!! This two story home provides the perfect platform for occasional personal use while generating passive income when you are not there. The home sits proudly between two low traffic streets and is just 2 blocks from the turquoise Pacific and a block from an oceanfront county park. Dual lanais provide the perfect setting to enjoy the salt breeze from the nearby ocean and enjoy the sunrise with a cup of award winning local coffee. Walk along the oceanfront roadway, enjoy leisurely picnics in the park or just spend quality time with your morning coffee on the wide rear lanai. Fully fenced, the yard is terraced and beautifully landscaped and maintained.<br><br>Enter via the lower level through a large hallway that houses a large bedroom and bath, featuring dual entry from either the hall or the bedroom. Both baths feature granite counters, tile flooring and vessel sinks. The lower-level primary bedroom spans the width of the entire home, and features a lower level lanai. A central staircase trimmed with plantation shutters leads upstairs to an open concept kitchen and great room with vaulted ceilings. Granite countertops, stainless appliances, a black single compartment sink and white tiled backsplash make the kitchen a pleasant place to work, while vaulted ceilings and oversized windows help ensure maximum light in this space. Two generously sized guest rooms are also located on this upper floor. Located on a corner lot with an empty lot next door, the home enjoys unexpected privacy. <br><br>As it stands now no new STVR licenses will be issued in this desirable area. It has been recently renewed and transferable, capable of generating some excellent income for a savvy buyer. This home is priced to sell at a price lower than the current appraisal value. Don’t wait to make an offer because it will likely not be on the market long.<br><br>MLS#703993
