Diamond in the Rough Waterfront Studio | Prime Cocoa Beach Location Opportunity knocks for buyers seeking sweat equity in a prime waterfront setting with low monthly association fees. Originally a one-bedroom, this condo has been reconfigured into an open studio layout with the removal of a non-load-bearing wall, creating a brighter, more versatile living space. The unit is ready for renovation-fresh paint, new baseboards, a new mini-split, kitchen cabinetry, and appliances-but the upside is clear. A walk-in closet & well-sized bathroom area provide a solid foundation to customize to your taste. Enjoy the coastal lifestyle with a waterfront pool & dock area offering unobstructed rocket launch views, set along the Banana River, next to Island Time Marina, off State Road 520. An easy walk to the beach, supermarket, & local restaurants puts everything within reach. Two-month minimum rentals. Bring your vision, add value, and transform this diamond in the rough into a coastal retreat!
