Seminole Isle is a very nice community here in Seminole Florida. It is located right on Park Blvd between Seminole Blvd and Park Street, in the middle of Seminole across the street from the huge Seminole park. It is only minutes away from the beaches of Madeira and Redington.
Seminole Isle is a gated community with 6 condo complexes a total of 180 units and a lot of townhomes. Nearly all units have a great view onto Lake Seminole and the nature preserve. The complex is right on the water and has a nice dock and its own little beach.
Seminole Isle features a nice clubhouse and tennis courts, a heated swimming pool and a long walk way around the community with beautiful direct waterfront places were you can just hang out or fish or watch the birds.
Location, Location, Location, it does not matter where you need to go in St. Petersburg, Seminole Isle is10 minutes or less from everything. There is a Publix and a Sweet bay within 5 minutes, a Home depot within 3 minutes, shops and restaurants even the Seminole Mall is less than 5 minutes away.
It will take you 30 minutes to Tampa airport and about 15 minutes to the downtown Saint Petersburg waterfront. Seminole itself has a lot to offer, it is an up and coming community with lots of energy and lots of fun things to do.
Seminole Isle was built some 4 years ago by Beazer, one of the nicest projects they ever did. Unfortunately the real estate market changed over night and Beazer stopped constructions on other projects that were planned for Seminole Isle. So, right now there is a lot of vacant land within the community.
If you do not know about the developer stopping the project, you would not realize that it was supposed to have a lot more buildings. In the beginning of 2008 the developer turned the condo affairs over to the Seminole Isle association and the complex is now managed by PBM
They have an onsite property manager that takes care of everything. Ok Let’s talk about the condos in Seminole Isle, like I said there are about 180 units and the have 3 different floor plans. The condos are either 2 or 3 bedroom between 1500 and 2100 heated square feet.
Each condo has an assigned parking space underneath the building and tons of parking outside. Also, each condo has a very nice size screened in balcony, open floor plan and high ceilings. The townhomes are a little over 2000 sf. also available in 3 different floor plans and they have a big oversized two car garage/ bonus room downstairs. You have your kitchen, living room area on the second floor and the bedrooms on the third floor. I kind of like the condos better, that might be because I am too lazy to walk up and down the steps in a townhome.
In the beginning of 2008 Beazer sold their last units in Seminole Isle and now everything that is or comes on the market is a resale. People paid a lot of money for these condos when they were brand new. Well, like I said before, in the meantime the market has changed and the sales prices in Seminole Isle went down dramatically. We are talking about prices that dropped by $150,000 within a 2 years period.
Well this is good news for all the buyers out there, once in a while you can find that unbelievable deal in Seminole Isle.
Just a few month ago, a 2100 Sf. condo sold for $270,000. The seller had paid way over $400,000 for it about 2 years ago. According to public records it looks like there might be more short sales coming up in Seminole Isle.
