Missed it once? Don’t make that mistake again. 616 Garland Circle is the one that got away… until now. If you’ve been hunting for that rare sweet spot between “low-maintenance†and “real home,†this bright, pet-friendly townhome tucked into one of Indian Rocks Beach’s best-kept communities brings it — along with skylights, a massive garage, and neighbors who actually say hello. If you’re the kind of person who closes your activity ring before breakfast, this one’s for you. Two blocks from the beach. Zero lawn to mow. One seriously roomy townhome that hits the sweet spot between house and condo life. And if you’ve been frustrated trying to find the right one, you’re not alone — over half of Florida homebuyers say that’s the hardest part of the entire process. So when a place like this comes along, you pay attention. This 2-bedroom, 2-bath, 1,465 sq ft home in Curlew Landings South feels more like a treehouse than a townhouse — bright, breezy, and private. You’ll notice it right away: sunlight pouring in from the skylights, the open floor plan, and that easy flow from kitchen to living room to balcony shaded by mature trees. The hardwood floors add warmth, the fireplace adds charm (and, yes, it actually gets used on chilly Florida mornings). Upstairs is the entire primary suite — a peaceful hideaway with a private balcony, oversized walk-in closet, and separate vanity and water closet. Downstairs? A proper guest room or office and a full bath. And the garage? It’s massive. Room for two SUVs and your beach gear, bikes, tools, golf cart, and all the “I might need that later†stuff you actually do use. This community is quietly one of the best-kept secrets in Indian Rocks Beach. It’s elevated (literally and figuratively), pet-friendly (no size limit), and neighborly in the old-fashioned way — the kind of place where someone always has an extra ladder, and folks still wave when they walk their dogs. Amenities include a heated pool, tennis/pickleball, and a kayak launch to the Intracoastal. Yes, there are stairs. That’s part of the charm — and part of why life here feels active and easy. It’s the kind of lifestyle where sunset walks, beach days, and a few extra steps come built into your routine — a rhythm that keeps you as healthy as you are happy. Parking is best for two cars and occasional guests — not for a driveway full of teenagers. This is a grown-up kind of peaceful. If you’ve been searching for that rare mix of space, simplicity, and sand-between-your-toes proximity — 616 Garland Circle is back on the radar.
