244 Tequesta Harbor Dr, Merritt Island, FL 32952

Available for rent is our recently updated, single family home on a half acre in the tropical paradise of South Merritt Island. Our home is just 5 miles from the beautiful coastline of Satellite Beach and only 5 miles to Patrick AFB and 15 miles to Cape Canaveral AFS. There is new paint and tile throughout the house. Kitchen and both bathrooms were remodeled in 2011. All major appliances, including washer and dryer, will remain for your use. All rooms have a ceiling fan and there is a working fireplace in the living room for those "chilly" Florida winters. We also have a large screened-in porch looking out on the fantastic, fenced-in back yard; perfect for family pets. 1.5 closed-in garage. Our neighborhood has a Private Harbor and you can take out your canoe and paddle up the Indian River, or watch for manatees and dolphins. You can also enjoy watching all the rocket launches from Cape Canaveral right in your yard. Children are zoned for Satellite Beach schools; bus pick-up and drop-off right from your driveway ;) There are many different tropical plants growing in the yard including palms, bananas, plantains, heliconias, citrus, and lilies. Starfruit and Avocado are next door and there are plenty of mangoes available down the road during the summer season. There is also world class flats fishing right across the road in the Banana Lagoon. Owners are active duty and loved the short drive to work at Patrick AFB, Cape Canaveral, and Eastern Florida State College. *this lease will extend to June 2021* Rent includes pest control and trash pickup - pets okay upon approval.
