Alcove is a compact pocket of Clearwater where homes run small and prices stay low — the kind of place that draws buyers looking for a foothold in Pinellas County without a coastal price tag. It sits within reach of the wider Clearwater scene, from the shops and events Downtown to the beaches out at Sand Key, and neighboring communities like On Top Of The World and Cove Cay round out the area's character.
For a buyer today, this is a thin, slow-moving market. There are just 2 active listings with a median list price of $74,200, and homes here tend to sit — the median time on market is over 400 days. On the upside, the two homes sold in the past year fetched 100% of asking, so realistic pricing does find a buyer.
Alcove is a community in Clearwater, Florida.
