Current listings and prices

Isle of Sand Key is a small condo inventory. There are currently updating active listings. That is often not enough sales history to treat a median as destiny, but it is what is on the market right now. The median list price is updating and the average is updating. Median price per square foot is updating. Units in the current set are about updating square feet. Homes stay on the market about updating days (median), with an average of updating days.

Because this is one building, the sample stays thin. City-wide Clearwater is a different market, pulled down by a lot of inland condos. It is not a substitute for Isle of Sand Key pricing, and it is not the same market as the tourist core of Clearwater Beach.

What this building is

Isle of Sand Key is a mid-rise condominium at 1621 Gulf Boulevard on Sand Key, on the Intracoastal side of the island, with the Gulf beach across the street. It is one building and a marina, not a spread-out neighborhood and not the Pier 60 strip. If you want the busy Clearwater Beach hotel-and-restaurant scene, this is a few minutes north, not the same address.

Who it fits

It fits buyers who want a lock-and-leave condo with water views, a heated pool, and a shot at a boat slip, without buying a newer tower on the sand. Boaters like the Intracoastal docks. People who want quiet at night like being on Sand Key instead of the main beach. It is a poor fit if you want a house, a private garage, or a building with only a handful of neighbors in a boutique new construction stack.

Housing mix

These are condominiums, typically two bedroom, two bath, in a 1974 high-rise. Corner units with wraparound balconies are the ones people wait on. Views split between the Gulf, the Intracoastal, and the marina, depending on the stack. Covered or assigned parking is the norm. You are not shopping a mix of houses and townhomes here.

What buyers should know

There is a condominium association, and the monthly fee is a real part of the payment. Current listings often show dues around $1,000 to $1,200. Confirm what that includes (cable, water, reserves, amenities) and whether a special assessment or milestone/SIRS work is on the calendar. Florida condo rules have been moving. Ask for the budget, reserves, and any structural study before you get attached to a view.

Flood is Zone AE on the listings I pulled. That is a Special Flood Hazard Area. Lenders usually require flood coverage. The association master policy and your HO-6 are not the same thing. Read both. Boat slips, when they exist, are commonly leased rather than deeded. Do not assume a slip conveys.

This is not an age-restricted building. It is also not the same product as the broader Clearwater Beach search. If you are comparing Isle of Sand Key with other Sand Key towers, compare dues, views, and parking on a spreadsheet. The building name is easy to confuse with the island name.

Frequently asked questions

Is Isle of Sand Key the same as Clearwater Beach?

No. It is a specific condo on Sand Key, with Clearwater Beach as the mailing and lifestyle area. The live Clearwater Beach guide covers a wider mix of condos and homes. Use that page for the island overall, and this page for this building.

Why so few listings?

It is one building. Units do not turn over every week. Inventory stays small, which is why the Clearwater guide is the place for city-wide numbers. The live count is in the listings section above.

Do I need flood insurance?

If you finance in Zone AE, plan on it. Get a quote on the unit, not a neighborhood average.

Can you originate the loan on a condo here?

Condo lending depends on the project as much as on you. I can check that as a Loan Originator. Apply for a loan and we will see whether this association is financeable for your scenario.

How do I tour a unit?

Browse current listings and we will request the showing from the listing. Tours are not booked as a general consultation.
