"South of Doctor's Pass" are four magical words used to describe the low and mid-rise condos on the brief strip of Gulf Shore Boulevard North that runs along the beach south of the intracoastal pass, "Doctor's Pass", connecting Moorings Bay to the Gulf of Mexico, and brings the allure of classic Olde Florida beachfront. Not only is this ideal location a short golf cart or bike ride to the restaurants and shops of Olde Naples, but also short walks to both the iconic family-owned Naples Beach Club and Edgewater Beach Hotel, which both offer casual beachfront dining. In addition, the Naples Beach Club offers weekly events, summers jazz concerts and a public golf course where the resident bald eagles can often be seen perched high in the Pine trees. These condo and co-op communities are low density as compared to many of the high-rises along the northern tip of Gulf Shore Boulevard North in Park Shore, and provide an inviting neighborhood feel.
More often than not, residences "South of Doctor's Pass" are sold within the building and never make it onto the open market. In fact, a mere 7 condos in beachfront buildings have gone pending or sold this season (January 1, 2015 to present), while there are only 5 active listings in these beachfront buildings. As a comparison, there have been 80 closed or pending sales in beachfront condominium buildings along Gulf Shore Boulevard North, north of Doctor's Pass, and currently 62 active listings in these Gulf front buildings.
The team of Tricia Raynor and Chip Shumway at Gulf Coast International Properties are very excited to be able to offer for sale a spacious Gulf-front comfort, SOUTH of DOCTOR'S PASS, at 1919 Gulf Shore Boulevard North #603 in The Diplomat Club. This extremely attractive 2 bedroom, 2 bath residence was thoughtfully renovated in 2005 with superior finishes as well as a new open floor plan. Space is utilized brilliantly with a large granite kitchen island and seating area replacing past walls, and matching built-in cabinets with a comfortable home office desk in an adjacent corner. This inviting residence offers a classic beach house feel and direct Gulf views. The Diplomat Club is an especially friendly low-density building with an on-site manager that regularly goes above and beyond, and excellent reserves. Asking price is $875,000.
Open Houses at the Diplomat Club, #603 will be held both Saturday and Sunday this weekend,
March 21st and March 22nd from 1:00pm to 4:00pm.
As inventory is indeed so low "South of Doctor's Pass", while demand is so high, we do expect this residence to go quickly. Please call today to schedule a showing!
Thanks!
