This renovated, above-floodplain first floor unit in the charming 16-unit Mentone Court complex is one of only two 2-bedroom condos with outdoor space under $500,000 in greater downtown SRQ. With a walkability score of 92 it’s a Walker's Paradise. The oversize lanai leads to private green space, then to a gate and on to four restaurants in Rosemary Square (see pictures) just 500 feet away. Main Street’s cafés & shops are a five-minute walk, while Whole Foods and the free Lido Beach Trolley (leaves every 20 min.) are just blocks away. Accessible, there are no steps to the assigned covered parking spot just fifty feet away. It comes furnished with a 75" Frame TV, leather power recliner couch, plush queen bed, all the artwork and most of the furniture pictured. Its HOA fees and taxes may be the lowest in SRQ and the fee covers flood insurance on the building’s structure. Gut-renovated and unlived in since there is new plumbing, paint, AC/heat, ceiling fans, large-format porcelain tile flooring with 5" baseboards and plantation blinds. The guest shower is over size and the primary bath has a 3/8” frameless glass shower door; both have high-end Kohler Awaken fixtures, Choreograph shower barres and gorgeous designer tile. The new LG heat pump washer/dryer is ready for your beach towels. The kitchen features new Samsung smart Wi-Fi appliances with an induction range and ultra quiet dishwasher. Quartz countertops complement solid hickory dovetailed cabinets that will never delaminate. The backsplash and island are clad with chic hand-made Moroccan Zellige tile by Clé. The oversize 5'x13' lanai has a storage closet and is protected by a 12' motorized roll-down Kevlar storm/sunshade rated for a Cat. 5 hurricane; its MagnaTrack system keeps the screen taut – no sagging, ever. It doubles as a sunscreen so you can use the patio year-round. Mentone Court's block buildings with tile roofs are not in a flood zone and have never had storm damage. The low $522 HOA fee covers master insurance on the structure as well as reserve funding, water, trash, sewer, landscaping and exterior maintenance. All you pay for is cable and electricity. Under three stories, there are no state Milestone Inspections. The HOA is professionally managed and fully funded with no special assessments planned. Live affordably and worry-free without any of the typical Florida coast issues. Small pets and minimum one-week rentals are allowed. Just a 12-minute Uber from the airport, 107 is a move-in-ready city pied-à-terre or live full-time downtown in affordable new luxury and walk to everything.
