6423 Clark St., Hudson, FL 34667

Life is better at the beach! This elevated, two-story home is just steps away from all the fun spots in Hudson--beach, boat ramp, Sam’s—and features construction found in commercial high-rises. Concrete stilts support the structure, steel beams form the frame, premium Hardie board is on the exterior and there are concrete floors on both levels. Custom metal hurricane shutters simply bolt shut while metal panels cover the entries with the push of a button. There is under-building parking for a boat trailer, RV, even room for a shed. Walk up the concrete stairs to the main living area to find an open floor plan inside, with sliders leading to the wraparound deck that has beautiful wood-look tile. Kitchen has gas stove, granite countertops and bar, pantry, and laundry area. The master bedroom upstairs is a true retreat with high ceilings, built-ins, huge walk-in closet, luxurious bath with jetted tub and separate shower, private deck with gulf view, and a flex space which could be an office, craft room, or extra storage-and the 60-inch wall-mounted TV stays. The guest bedroom has its own deck and bath with oversized vanity and large tiled shower. Outside, the dock and boat lift can be extended to create a custom entertaining space where you can watch the fishing boats head out each evening, and be on the lookout for dolphins and manatees.
