This property is truly amazing…
It is the only modern and completely renovated 3,700 square foot, 6-bedroom, 4-bathroom pool home on the island for the price. Moreover, this unique property is really two 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom units that are and have been utilized as an income-producing duplex (separately metered), an income-producing single-family home sleeping up to 20 people (its current use) or an outstanding single-family home with plenty of private accommodation for visiting family and friends. And it’s only one block from the sugar sands of Holmes Beach!
Detailing this home in words is difficult because the home has two of everything! Two Kitchens, two living rooms, two dining rooms, two entertaining areas, two entrances, two exits and two private sleeping/bathing quarters… Furthermore, the two 3-bed, 2-bath units are conjoined by a single door, which can be left open when the property is being used as a single unit or closed and locked when acting as a duplex, thus providing the perfect amount of privacy and security for the homes’ many uses.
In its current use - a single-family long-term rental - this property is projected to earn 90k in rental revenue in 2009. Detailed rental histories for ’07 and ’08 will be provided to qualified buyers.
You will not find another property like this one anywhere on the island.
