Best priced 2/2 condo in Hollywood! About 400ft from the sea, you're not just ocean view — you're truly beachside. There's no major road between you and the water, so you can walk out of the building and be on the sand in about a minute. The unit comes turnkey and partially furnished, with a genuinely open floor plan and room to spread out. The balcony gives you ocean and Intracoastal views. The kitchen has been renovated with a clean, modern look, both bathrooms are updated, and the bedrooms are big, with a large walk-in closet in the primary. Impact windows and doors throughout, your own private washer and dryer, and water, basic cable, and trash/sewer are all included in the association fee. You're a short walk from Margaritaville and the other beachfront restaurants, a few blocks from the new Publix, and a quick drive to the airport and cruise port. The building's 50-year certification is complete, reserves are funded, and conventional financing is accepted. Leasing is allowed after the first year of ownership. No pets. Comparable units with fewer updates have traded in a similar price range, making this one of the strongest values near the beach.
