Dunedin Florida Real Estate :: An Asset to
Own
by Bob Lipply
Dunedin (pronounced DONE-EE-DIN or some folks say
"done eatin")
is a great place to live. It is one of the older cities on the
western part of Florida and its downtown has been transformed
into a haven of little shops and great restaurants and
nightlife. Walking magazine recently named Dunedin one of the
five most walk able downtown areas in America. Dunedin is a very
desirable city to buy real estate in.
Bayshore Blvd Views
You can enjoy the waterfront view from your front porch along the beautiful
Bayshore Boulevard overlooking the Gulf of Mexico or from a
condo along the Dunedin Causeway. Some of the more exclusive
homes are found in Dunedin Isles or Baywood Shores, running
close to $2.5 million. Breathtaking waterfront condos can be
found in Harbor View Villas or Victoria Shores just to name a
few, priced around $1.5 million. There are many different types
of subdivisions in Dunedin that will suit a variety of
lifestyles on or off the beach. Any Dunedin neighborhood is only
a short bike, walk or drive from the beach. The Dunedin Marina
and park is at the west end of downtown and a great place to
enjoy a beautiful sunset.
The Beach and the Pinellas Trail
We enjoy spending the day at Caladesi and Honeymoon Island
parks, where we enjoy swimming, fishing, picnicking, canoeing
and walking the nature trails. You can only get to Caladesi
Island by boat or on foot so you can enjoy the unspoiled beauty
of the island without the sound of car motors and horns.
We also enjoy biking, rollerblading and walking along
Dunedin's 4.2 miles of the Pinellas Trail, which is a 15 foot
wide trail running through the St. Petersburg, Clearwater and
Tarpon Springs areas. This trail is widely used and is a
wonderful way to get to Downtown to meander through the many
shops or grab a bite to eat.
Dunedin Events
We also enjoy the many events that Dunedin has to offer. We
enjoy the Scottish Highland games, watching the many throwing
competitions, learning about Scottish and Celtic culture and
enjoying the Highland Dancing. Although far away from New
Orleans, Dunedin offers a Mardi-Gras festival and parade which
we also enjoy each year. This festival has brought in over
25,000 people and is one of the most popular events that we look
forward to. During the spring months, we enjoy Friday Night
Films in the park, where we can bring a picnic and enjoy classic
movies. Dunedin is also the winter home to the Toronto Blue Jays
where we may take a day off work to spend the day watching one
of America’s favorite pastimes.
If you enjoy water sports or the outdoors,
Dunedin property
is for you. And Dunedin is centrally located to Tampa, St.
Petersburg and Clearwater and is only 90 minutes away from
Disney World and Sea World which are in Orlando, Florida.
Dunedin is a great place to call home or buy real estate with
all it has to offer.
