Zoned for A-rated schools, including Palm Harbor University High School and Ozona Elementary, Crystal Beach has NO traffic lights and no businesses in our small, quaint little town. Convenient to everything Palm Harbor has to offer, yet to ourselves, along the seashore. A laid-back way of life that you don't find very often today.It is here that we find eight homes currently on the market that are not waterfront homes. This means that you are spending less for your home, yet you are only blocks from the alluring waters that attract so many to our area. These homes are as follows:396 Kentucky Ave - 2 bedrooms, 1 bath bungalow for under $130k208 Crystal...

It was another beautiful sunset over Crystal Beach Florida and the waters of the Gulf of Mexico last night.There is nothing as peaceful as watching the sun setting over our shoreline. Much of the neighborhood comes out to watch and many have their cameras along with them. With views like this, who can blame them???

The ever shrinking home inventory in Crystal Beach Florida continues to be an issue for people desiring to relocate to our tranquil area of Pinellas County. With only thirteen, yes you read correctly, thirteen single family homes on the market, buyers can easily become frustrated. Many are also looking along the coast in Ozona and Palm Harbor to our south as well as to Tarpon Springs to our north but the situation doesn't get much better in those locations either.The issue is simple. Prices are going up. Homeowners are only selling right now if they cannot wait for prices to go up more. Buyers are realizing that they missed the low point back in 2013 and are attempting to purchase now. It is simple supply and demand, as we all studied in college economics class.If you are looking to pur...

December in Crystal Beach Florida means sunshine and blue skies and that is exactly what we have today! I started my day with a quiet walk through our little seaside community in a short sleeve shirt and am now blogging on the balcony in barefeet since it is 80 degrees out right now!

It is going to be another beautiful day here in Crystal Beach Florida. Our afternoon temperature should be around 72 degrees. Perfect December weather. When I hear the weather reports from our northern neighbors, I actually get goose bumps! I cannot imagine living in those conditions. As I age, I find that my joints just don't like the cold weather anymore. If you are tired of the cold winter months and are thinking of relocating to sunny Florida, give me a call today for information on the Crystal Beach Florida area. We have fantastic weather all year and what could possibly be better than waking up to blue skies and sunshine during the winter months?

Michael Marth, of the Tampa Bay Fingerstyle Guitar Guild, played at the Crystal Beach Florida Chili Cook-Off today. It was a cool 62 degrees this afternoon but the sun was shining as the winds blew in from the North. The Tampa Bay Fingerstyle Guitar Guild plays at the annual Crystal Beach Florida Chili Cook-Off which is always held at Live Oak Park, on the shoreline of the Gulf of Mexico. This is one annual event that brings out not only the Crystal Beach community but locals from neighboring Ozona and Palm Harbor show up for the food, music and general good time. There was even a bounce house for the little ones this year and with music from Michael Marth, who could resist staying for a while to listen to this master of the guitar.
