404 Bouchelle Drive, Unit 203New Smyrna Beach, FL 32169Price: $239,000

Welcome to Bouchelle Island in beautiful New Smyrna Beach, where life is just better by the water. This beautifully updated second-floor 1-bedroom, 1-bath condo makes the perfect home base for weekends, winters, vacations, or simply whenever you need a little beach time. Vaulted ceilings and an open living and dining area keep things bright and comfy, while the spacious bedroom and screened balcony give you the perfect place to come home to after a day of fun. And one more nice bonus-this unit has its own in-unit laundry room, perfect after a long day at the beach or on the water. But here, the condo is only part of the story. Life on Bouchelle Island is about what happens outside your front door. Start the morning with coffee on the balcony, spend the day at the beach or on the river, cruise to a nearby sandbar, or pull the boat up to one of New Smyrna's waterfront restaurants for lunch or dinner. Anglers will love having some of Florida's best inshore and offshore fishing practically in their backyard. Then head home for a swim or an evening stroll along Bouchelle's more than half-mile Intracoastal waterfront boardwalk. Boaters will appreciate the private boat ramp, marina, and wet and dry boat storage, with marina slips available to owners subject to availability and a waiting list. Prefer a beach day? Grab your e-bike, golf cart or car and head to the ocean just minutes away. Chill in the shade, watch the surfers and waves roll in, and enjoy a cold drink. Or stay right on Bouchelle Island. Choose between two pools, relax in the spa, play tennis or pickleball, work on your short game at the 18-hole chip & putt, or enjoy the clubhouse, fitness room, shuffleboard and BBQ areas. And? the best part-the casual gathering spot near the boat ramp and fire pit that residents affectionately call the “Bouchelle Island Yacht Club.” Pull up a chair, meet the neighbors and enjoy the laid-back waterfront atmosphere. As the owners like to say, the initiation fee is simply a cold drink and a smile. The beach, Canal Street, Flagler Avenue, shopping, restaurants and everything that makes New Smyrna Beach so much fun are just minutes away. The current owners have enjoyed the condo as their own getaway while also renting it from January through March when they're not using it. Furnishings are negotiable and may be available under a separate agreement. Come for the condo. Stay for the lifestyle. Welcome to Bouchelle Island
