Property Description

You came for the sunshine; water. Here it is! Without the noise; without the traffic—within minutes of the Indian Rocks Beach sand . . . Even better: You absolutely DO NOT NEED A CAR HERE. . . Look up and down the county coastline and you’ll not find a better value. This is why you came to Florida—without the hassle . . . Sure, other units in New Atlantis Club are on the market. Some may, on paper, seem more desirable . . . But let me explain why this is the best of the available 295 apartments and what the complex itself offers that makes living in this unique place better than living on the beach . . . First: Updated granite, ceramic tiles and laminate in the bedrooms. New French-door fridge. Partial sunset/water view and light-bright southern exposure. Step out of the open-concept interior into a hallway, steps from your sparkling heated pool. This spacious 2 bdrm/2 bath, 987-sqft second-floor unit (elevator). The huge screened balcony (156 square feet not included in the 987) has ample room to enjoy the outdoors and boasts a new high-capacity front-load washer in an alcove . . . This, Building 10, is closest to the Intercostal, near the kayak racks and launch. You’ll also find the tennis courts between it and the water . . Tuesday and Saturday mornings you’ll find a handfull of Corn Hole players there with coolers. Other times, Pickelball is the sport of the day. Two shuffleboard courts across the manicured lawn offer another option amidst the sunshine and tropical breezes . . . Your unit faces south toward the east side of 10. The living/dining combo features a wall of sliding glass doors directly overlooking 20-acre Bonner Park. This gated community has a private, locked entrance to the park through which you can walk to Indian Rocks Beach (25-30 minutes). Traverse it, through a lovely small neighborhood and meander through McGough Park, to the base of the IRB bridge. (See map.) Or make the 10-minute drive to IRB. Conversely, you can join your neighbors on bicycle, e-bike or mobility scooter (no parking hassle/tickets) . . Other community amenities: A fitness room and clubhouse with a full kitchen, large gathering room, pool table. Also a small library and a computer., a second heated pool, an 11-person hot tub. Picnic tables, gas and charcoal grills dot the landscape. Tiki Huts and tropical flowers enhance the vibe . . . Onsite manager and maintenance. Unusually quiet most of the year. Owners, snowbirds and renters of all ages are your neighbors. (Two-year wait to rent yours.) Assigned and visitor parking.. . . But know this: Most condominiums in Florida are facing assessments after the Surfside condominium collapse. New Atlantis is no different. An assessment is coming 9/27. But even considering that, look at what you get. New management and new board members are in place. Homeowners are encouraged. The new Board has begun asking for input from owners on spending—a significant departure from the past. And many improvements are underway . . . THE BOTTOM LINE: Unit 1049 in Building 10 at the New Atlantis Club on the Intercostal Waterway in Largo, Florida, is a dream come true. Snatch up up this remarkable opportunity before it’s gone and come home every day to a spectacular combination of interior and exterior beauty in an ideal location surrounded by water and nature with dozens of services and shops galore right outside your quiet, gated community. All you will ever need or want in the best location in the county. For peanuts.
