Property details

About 581 Hillside Ct

Tucked away at the end of a peaceful cul-de-sac, this meticulously renovated waterfront gem offers the perfect blend of modern luxury and Florida charm. Every detail has been thoughtfully updated — including plumbing, electrical, and roof — creating a light, bright, and open 3-bedroom, 2-bath retreat. Perched along the dredged Elbow Creek, the property provides easy access for larger boats to the Indian River, with a fixed bridge offering over 20 feet of clearance. Spend your mornings marveling at gentle manatees and playful dolphins, and savor breathtaking sunrises as the Atlantic lights up the horizon. Inside, high-end Pergo flooring flows throughout an airy, open-concept design. The upgraded kitchen seamlessly connects to the spacious family room, creating an inviting space to gather. There's plenty of room for family and friends to visit, fish right from the backyard, or relax on the expansive back porch where a constant evening breeze keeps the bugs away. Enjoy easy access by boat or car to Frigate's Waterfront Restaurant, downtown Melbourne, Eau Gallie, shopping, and more. With an inside laundry room, ample space to install your own dock and lift on this third-of-an-acre lot, and a setting that feels far larger than its 1,484 square feet, this is more than a home  it's a waterfront lifestyle where every day feels like a getaway.
