616 GARLAND CIRCLE | Indian Rocks Beach
Some listings say “walk to the beach,” but they mean “bring your hiking boots and a hydration pack.” This one? You’re two blocks from sand-between-your-toes Florida bliss. The 2-bedroom, 2-bath, elevated 1,465 sq ft townhome at 616 Garland Circle isn’t a rental machine in disguise. It’s your own move-in-ready home in Indian Rocks Beach — which, for the record, is basically Old Florida meets an eclectic crowd of sunglass-wearing Boomers, Gen Xers, Zoomers, Tourists, and Snowbirds who all agree the beach is non-negotiable. Bonus? It’s in one of the few elevated communities on the Barrier Islands under $2M that will welcome your 60-lb Golden Retriever, Taffy, with open arms (and so will I when I see her! #DogPeopleKnow). Anyway — enough about your dog (for now). Let’s talk about your new townhouse. Walk through the French-style front door, and boom — sunlight city. The four skylights absolutely flood the space with natural light. The vibe? Airy. Bright. Main character energy. The primary floor is wide open — hardwood floors, brand-new 5" baseboards, soft neutrals, and sliding doors out to your chill-out balcony shaded by actual trees. It’s giving “porch swing with iced tea” energy. It’s giving peace. Also? There’s a fireplace. I know — Florida, amiright? But on those rare frosty nights, you’ll be glad you have it. Trust. The kitchen has stainless appliances and solid counter space, but let’s be honest — you’re the reheating Guppy’s leftovers and calling it gourmet type. (Same.) There’s also a guest room and full bath on this level, which is perfect when your WFH setup is “I live here now” or you host friends who don’t know how to leave. Upstairs? The primary suite takes the entire top floor. Huge walk-in closet, vanity, separate water closet, private balcony with leafy views... it’s giving “Florida treehouse,” but like, classy. Oh, and the balconies? Full rebuilds underway community-wide. This seller already paid for it. You? Just bring your beach towel and relax. Let’s talk garage. This one? A unicorn. Unadulterated. Two SUVs and a golf cart? Yes. Three small cars? Absolutely. Surfboards, beach carts, bikes, tools, your seasonal décor addiction? Yes to all. It’s not just a garage — it’s a life saver. Curlew Landings South is 92 townhomes of friendly energy, fresh coastal paint, and actual neighbors. Need help hanging a picture? Someone’s got a ladder. Want to chat about dog breeds over sunset walks? You’re in the right place. There’s a heated pool, tennis/pickleball court, a kayak launch to the Intracoastal, and yes — I’m saying it again — the pet policy is outstanding. Two dogs. No size limit. No judgment. (Oops. Dogs again. Not sorry.) Whether you’re upgrading, downsizing, staycationing or just finally ready to live the sunset life instead of watching other people do it on Instagram — 616 Garland Circle is THE ONE. You’re two blocks from the beach and four minutes from Kooky Coconut — where the tacos are legit, the Cuban sandwiches come hot off the press, and the ice cream hits just right after a dip in the Gulf. Come see what real beach life feels like. Or scroll past and risk regret. Your call. StellarMLS TB8389874
