About 6509 Dolphin Cove Dr
Welcome to 6509 Dolphin Cove Drive, Apollo Beach—a fully renovated waterfront masterpiece offering the perfect blend of luxury, functionality, and peace of mind. This spacious four-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bathroom home was completely remodeled in April 2025, with top-to-bottom updates designed for modern coastal living. The renovation includes a new roof, water heater, all-new appliances, kitchen, bathrooms, flooring, crown molding, ceiling fans, and all new hurricane impact doors and windows. Every detail was thoughtfully upgraded, and all work was fully permitted. The home also features a 3-year-old A/C system and a 6x13 carpeted, air-conditioned storage room located just off the family room—perfect for seasonal items or hobby space. Step into your private backyard retreat featuring a refinished pool deck with new railings and a completely reconditioned dock with a 12,000-pound boat lift. The home sits on a deep water canal with no fixed bridges, offering quick, direct access to Tampa Bay and the Gulf of Mexico—perfect for boaters. Additional highlights include extra garage storage space, an elevation of over 12 feet, and the fact that the home did not flood during recent hurricanes, offering added safety and long-term reassurance. Even more impressive, flood insurance is only $1,250 per year—roughly one-quarter the average cost for this area. Offered at or below the current appraised value, with appraisal available upon request to qualified buyers, this is an exceptional opportunity to own a fully updated, move-in-ready waterfront home with no HOA or CDD fees. Welcome to the ultimate in Apollo Beach living.
