Property Description
Step back in time and fall in love with this vintage Dunedin charmer in Fairway Estates—one of the community’s most beloved neighborhoods. Built in 1957 and lovingly cared for by the same family since 1963, this home captures the warmth, character, and craftsmanship of a bygone era. If you’re tired of cookie-cutter remodels filled with gray flooring and all white cabinets in the kitchen & baths, this is your chance to own a true classic that offers timeless style and incredible potential. Move right in and enjoy the home’s many well-maintained features, then update at your own pace to suit your taste and lifestyle. The freshly painted exterior and interior create a bright, welcoming feel, while large windows flood every room with natural light. Each of the three bedrooms is a corner room with windows on two sides, creating an airy sense of space. Gorgeous original wood flooring runs through much of the home—rich in character and in excellent condition. Unlike most homes in Fairway Estates, this one was built with a raised crawl space foundation—an uncommon and desirable feature that provides easy access to plumbing and electrical systems, enhanced air circulation under the home, and a cooler, drier environment indoors during Florida’s humid months. It’s one of those subtle construction details that reflects thoughtful mid-century design and long-term practicality. The spacious two-car garage includes a convenient half bath, ideal for rinsing off after a day at the beach or tending the garden. The large, pool-sized lot is fully fenced, offering privacy and room to expand. Practical updates include a roof installed in 2015, HVAC replaced in 2021, and a new water heater in 2024. The home features propane service for both the furnace and water heater and sits high and dry in a non-evacuation, Flood Zone X location for peace of mind year-round. Fairway Estates residents enjoy access to Lake Saundra Park, a tranquil neighborhood retreat where neighbors gather to enjoy birdwatching, sunsets, and the occasional family of otters. The community is golf cart approved and ideally located near the recently restored Dunedin Golf Club—a historic Donald Ross design—as well as the Pinellas Trail, Dunedin Causeway, Honeymoon and Caladesi Island State Parks, and the Dunedin Community and Fine Arts Centers. Come experience the nostalgia, character, and unbeatable location that make this home such a treasure—and imagine the possibilities for your own modern vision. Schedule your private showing today!
