Cape San Blas Real Estate Week in Review - Oct. 10-16, 2015

Published on October 16, 2015 by Sherri Dodsworth under Cape San Blas

For Sale Sold SignWe had another good week, closing four sales and adding four new contracts to the mix.  Seven new listings came on the market, and three sellers opted for price changes.  Our inventory inched up by two, closing the week at 261, with 79 homes and 182 lots listed for sale in the Cape San Blas, Indian Pass, C-30 Corridor MLS. Let’s take a look at what’s moving.

Cape San Blas Gulf Front Lot Under Contract August 2015 with List Price of $449,000

The first of our four sales is a 70′ wide gulf front lot on Avalon that went under contract at the end of August with a list price of $449,000. It’s not in a subdivision, so no HOA fees or covenants and restrictions.  The property last sold in 2001 for $397,000; this time around it closed for$430,000 cash. Avalon is just a bit south of Hibiscus Beach which is adjacent to Rish Park.

Cape SAn Blas Gulf View Lot Under Contract September 2015 with List Price of $59,500

Down on the south side of the Cape on McCosh Mill Road in Piney Woods, our second sale is a 0.13 acre gulf view lot listed for $59,500. Folks penned a contract on it in mid-September, and closed on Monday for $50,000. I couldn’t find any meaningful prior sales history on the property appraiser’s site.

Cape San Blas Area Gulf Front Home Under Contract September 2015 with List Price of $799,000

We’re out on the C-30 Corridor for our third sale, a 4-bedroom, 2 1/2-bath, 2,112-square foot gulf front home listed for $799,000. It was built in 1996 on a lot with 75′ of waterfront footage. The sellers bought the home at the height of the market in mid-2004 for $1.15M, and sold it on Wednesday for $545,000.

First Tier Lot At Treasure Shores Under Contract September 2015 with List Price of $110,000

Our fourth and final sale is over in Treasure Shores where buyers penned a contract in mid-September on an 83′ by 130′, quarter-acre first tier lot listed for $110,000. The sellers purchased the FEMA eligible property in late 2002 for $185,000.

Barrier Dunes Interior Townhouse Under Contract October 2015 with List Price of $182,000

We’re up in Barrier Dunes on the north end of the Cape to begin our review of this week’s four new contracts. First up, this 3-bedroom, 3-bath, 1,377 square foot home back by the state park. It was built in 1985, and the sellers bought it in 1988 for $81,000, and have it listed for $182,000.

Cape San Blas Gulf Front Home In Ovation Under Contract October 2015 with List Price of $1.29M

About a mile down the beach in Ovation our second contract is on this lovely 3-bedroom, 4-bath, 2,618 square foot gulf front home listed for $1.29M.  The sellers bought the lot in 2012 for $150,000 when the developer had the huge clearance sale, then built the house just last year.

Cape San Blas Gulf Front Home Under Contract October 2015 with LIst Price of $1.199M

Buyers had a hunger for houses this week, especially gulf front, and contract number three is on this awesome 5-bedroom, 4-bath, 2,700 square foot lovely with all the bells and whistles. Located on the north side of Barefoot Trace subdivision less than a quarter mile north of Scallop Cove, it features this inviting pool over looking the gulf, a high-end outdoor kitchen, pool side hot tub, and beautifully designed fire pit atop the dunes.   The seller bought the 50-wide, X zone lot in late 2009 for $375,000 and built the home in 2010.

Bank Owned Cape San Blas Gulf Front Fixer Upper Under Contract October 2015 with List Price of $240,000

We’re back on the south side of the Cape for our fourth and final new contract, a bank-owned serious fixer upper in need of a LOT of TLC. Multiple buyers submitted offers on this 3-bedroom, 3-bath, 2,324 square foot circa 1984 gulf front house in Cape Dunes listed for $240,000. The previous owner bought it back in 2001 for $126,000 and it doesn’t look as if it has been maintained much since then.

That’s a wrap for today. I enjoy meeting and working with so many of you – it’s a great feeling helping people realize their dream of having a coastal retreat of their own. If you’re thinking of buying or selling, I’d love to hear from you. Please try me on my cell at 850-227-5197 or shoot me an email to [email protected]. Have a great week, and if you’re in the area this weekend be sure to catch The Blast on the Bay, featuring free performances by over twenty of Nashville’s finest songwriters. I go to this event each year and it truly is a blast! Hope to see you there.
