Marco Island's Most Economical Neighborhood
Posted by Sue Boyle on Thursday, October 25th, 2012 at 2:09pm.
Buyers consistently ask me where they can get the most bang for their buck on the Island. I would have to say Old Marco. Located west of the Jolly Bridge, you'll love the Key West vibe and with the current properties on the market topping out at $549,000, you'll love the price too! You can live in Old Marco and practically never leave. There are several great restaurants and shopping within walking distance and a marina right down the street. Following are some examples of what you can buy in Old Marco:
Located on 821 Elm St., this single family home features a private dock with lift and in-ground swimming pool. The pool is screened in so you can relax and enjoy the outdoors as long as you like. With water direct access, this home is a good buy at $549,000.
If condos are more your style, check out the penthouse at Marco Cat, Unit 7. Priced at $549,000, this unit comes turnkey furnished with amazing views of the Gulf, Collier Bay and the Marco River. It also includes 2 lanais for enjoying the views and world class decorating.
If those two are out of your budget, try a condo at Marco Inn Villas. Priced at only $99,000, this 1BR/1BA unit features water direct access, river views and docks available for lease. Featuring new tile floors, new cabinets and a remodeled bath, this may be one of the best deals on the Island. This same unit sold for $315,000 in 2005!
For something right in the middle, check out this condo at, of all places, Olde Marco! Built in 2001, this 2BR/2BA corner unit features tropical Tommy Bahama decor, plantation shutters and awesome amenities. These include a heated pool, hot tub, restaurant and covered parking. This condo is priced at $209,111. This is considered a condo/hotel with certain restrictions so contact The Boyle Team for more details.
