We have rented in a few locations down here (SRB 30A area) in the past 4 years. This home, by far, is the best location for the price that we have ever paid. It would be a great place for someone with children, or someone who enjoys bike riding, running or walking. I can ride my bike to Dune Allen (by GoatFeathers) from this home in 30 minutes (with very little effort). We were going to rent a home in the Dune Allen area until we found out that the person that lived across the street has a boyfriend that is a registered sex ofender and stays at her home most of the time but was registered a different location....we immediately ran!! It was quite disappointing considering what 30A is known for...registered sex offenders is not on that list! They wanted $1050 a month and it was 1300sf. It was close to the beach, but I am not the type of person to compromise living by a sex offender because I want to be able to walk to the beach or have views of the ocean.
This home is clean, large enough for a family of 4 with a dog, in an HOA neighborhood, they handle all of the lawn and landscape maitanence. This neighborhood is safe, and quiet, and convenient to those who are simply wanting a nice safe place to live. The homes in here are going for $199K. There is one active listing that is in forclosure going for $179K and 2 others that are under contract but are Short Sales.
We like it...it just may not be for everyone.
