5408 pinetree avenue

Half a mile from the sand and priced to catch your eye -- this one-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath attached home in the Thomas Drive area is the kind of easygoing coastal find that doesn't come along every day. With 870 square feet of single-story living, it's compact, breezy, and ready for someone with a paintbrush and a plan. The renovation work here is mostly cosmetic, so don't let the word scare you off. Think fresh paint, updated finishes, and a few personal touches rather than a gut job. The bones are good, which means you can spend your energy making it pretty instead of making it stand. A half bath downstairs is a handy bonus for guests who'd rather not wander far. Location is the real headliner. Public Beach Access #11 sits an easy distance away, so morning trips with sandy toes become a regular thing. You're also close to the Navy base, Florida State University's local campus, and Gulf Coast State College, making this a smart pick for a variety of buyers. Speaking of renters, there's no homeowners association here, and short-term rental potential adds a nice layer of income possibility. Northwest Florida Beaches International Airport keeps travel simple, and everything the coast offers is right at your fingertips. Whether you're chasing a beachy getaway, a first place, or a savvy investment, this little charmer checks the boxes. Come see it before someone else scoops it up. *Information provided is deemed reliable but is not guaranteed and should be independently verified by the buyer*
