1305 Fiddler Avenue

COMMUNITY AND SURROUNDING AREA:
Scenic canal front vistas and private boat docks create picturesque backyard settings as glassy waters ripple into Sykes Creek and flow into the Banana River. From the front, the streets of Surfside Estates are lined with mature trees, tropical foliage, and coastal ranch-style cuties. Some of these homes have been redesigned and updated to meet modern-day style. Other properties are renovations waiting to happen! This established Merritt Island community is three minutes from the State Road 520 Causeway, leading east to the Atlantic Ocean beaches and west to the mainland. A host of shopping and tasty restaurants are just around the corner. All local schools are a convenient one to ten-minute commute. The Kennedy Space Center is sixteen minutes away, and views of the stellar rocket launches are right outside your door!

PROPERTY SUMMARY:
Cast in yellow as bright as the Florida sun, accented with charming white shutters, and fortified with a 2018 roof, this canal-front casita exhibits a shady two-vehicle carport along with an attached one-car garage. A brick-accented walkway leads up to an airy front porch perfect for basking in riverside breezes. Inside, this coastal abode is looking for fresh vision and updates, but the easy-flow floor plan is functional, bright, and ready for renovation! Glistening waterscapes showcase a generous dining area that opens into a liberal living room and a galley-style kitchen with eat-in space. Off the kitchen, the family room is an inviting place to gather with your favorite folks. A restful owner's suite presents canal views, a compact walk-in closet, and an updated shower bath with modern tile accents. The two extra bedrooms are ample for kids or guests, and their closets come with built-in shelving. If you're not totally 'tickled pink' by the throw-back tub/shower second bath, it's an easy transformation into something fit for today's fashion-forward fads. Household tasks are more enjoyable in the large laundry room outfitted with a sink, counter, cabinetry, washer, and dryer. Several closets throughout the home are handy for additional storage. The garage is equipped with shelving, workshop space, and an exterior door which creates easy in-and-out access when working in the yard. Celebrate in true Florida style out on the sizeable screened lanai overlooking a grassy backyard and the peaceful canal. This tranquil setting offers splendid seats for watching the nearby rocket blast-offs! A small private boat dock with electricity is the prime platform for launching big waterfront fun! A short cruise takes you to Sykes Creek and on to the wide-open Banana River.

The views and canal access alone are worth it! Add your own updated design, and you've got a waterside wonder!
