About this home
Trade the snow shovel for sunglasses! Whether you’re ready to retire in Florida or simply want a warm-weather escape from winter, this beautifully maintained two-bedroom, one-bath home in Caribbean Isles Residential Cooperative offers an affordable way to start living the Florida lifestyle. Easy to maintain and thoughtfully updated, this home has had many of the big-ticket improvements already completed. The HVAC was replaced in 2024, new flooring was installed in 2022, the interior was freshly painted in 2024, and new ceiling fans were added in 2025. The kitchen features a double-door refrigerator and stove with convection oven and built-in air fryer, both new in 2022. Outside, attractive latticework was added to the golf cart port and front of the home in 2025, adding privacy and curb appeal. Best of all, there are no backyard neighbors, giving you a little extra breathing room when it’s time to relax. This is the kind of home that makes Florida living easy — comfortable enough for year-round retirement, yet manageable enough to close up when the season ends. Bring the golf cart, pack the flip-flops, and leave plenty of room in the calendar for fun! Caribbean Isles is a gated, resident-owned 55+ waterfront cooperative offering the resort-style lifestyle Florida is famous for. Enjoy the heated pool, clubhouse, social events and activities, boating and kayaking access, and miles of private roads perfect for walking, biking, and golf-cart rides. And because you become a shareholder in the cooperative, there is NO LOT RENT. Conveniently located in Apollo Beach between Tampa/St. Petersburg and Sarasota/Bradenton, you’ll be close to shopping, restaurants, medical services, beaches, and plenty of Gulf Coast adventures. Why spend another winter scraping ice off the windshield when you could be deciding whether today is a pool day or a golf-cart day? Come see how affordable your Florida getaway can be!
