1023 Idlewild Dr N, Dunedin, FL 34698

Welcome to the heart of Dunedin! Recently completely renovated with many upgrades, stainless-steel appliances, and granite throughout. This beautiful pool home overlooks a pond inhabited by many native wildlife. Watch the ducks, turtles, otters, herons, spoonbills, ibis, egrets, osprey, and countless song birds while enjoying the huge salt water pool, 5-person hot tub on cooler nights, or just relaxing in the backyard sanctuary. There is a working fireplace that could be used traditionally or with electric. The primary bedroom contains separate office or sitting area, a generously size bathroom with large glassed-in shower and walk-in closet. Primary bedroom also overlooks lanai with an enclosed garden and large pool area. Behind the home, paths directly lead to Highlander Park, Hammock Park, and the Pinellas Trail. Highlander Park includes: tennis & pickleball courts, paved paths, pools, 3 playgrounds, a splash pad, the Dunedin Fine Arts Center and Palm Café, the Dunedin Community Center which offers countless classes for all ages, a gym, and library. Hammock Park includes miles of trails and boardwalks that meander through undisturbed Florida habitats. Take a serene walk only minutes out the door to observe nesting gopher tortoises, barred owls, and enjoy quiet time amongst live oaks, palms, and babbling streams. In less than 10 minutes you can be at the Dunedin Causeway to walk paths, kayak, paddleboard, or just enjoy the most amazing sunsets. The causeway leads to Honeymoon Island State Park & Beaches which boasts over 4 miles of undisturbed beach shoreline and miles more of hiking and biking trails through pine forests and ocean overlooks. Within that same time, you could also be downtown for countless restaurants, music, parades, festivals, and weekly farmers market. This home is adorned with vibrant oranges, painted by local artist Steven Spathelf. Painted oranges pop up throughout town amongst other murals representing community, art, and history. Dunedin is a golf cart community and living in this home would have all these locations just a close walk, bike, or golf cart ride away!
