Electric hurricane shutters on all three sliding glass doors, and manual shutters on all other openings plus a hurricane resistant garage door will provide protection from storms and can help reduce insurance. THIS IS A SOLID BLOCK BUILDING. The original builder still lives next door. All 6 units were built with potential to install an elevator. Two of the 6 units have done so already. Do you have a pet that likes to run? There is a very wide, grassy backyard that is completely enclosed and can provide a safe playground for your pets. Major building renovations were undertaken in 2022/23 including: upgraded electrical panel, new composite decks, new railings, and a fresh coat of paint. A complete list of upgrades to the building and unit is available. The home is priced well under recent appraised value and can provide you instant equity. Lease it out for a few months a year and your annual maintenance fee will be covered with some to spare.
