Zero lot line living facilitates convenient, luxurious lifestyles
Kiss sweaty days consumed with yard work goodbye and say hello to zero lot line living. As Greater Tampa Bay’s population continues to grow, many new developments are built up, rather than sprawling out. More and more people are choosing to live in space-saving apartments, condos and townhomes.
While the personal lot size may be small — or zero, to be exact — there are many advantages to this alternative style of living. Because these dwellings take up such little space, it is not difficult to find one right in the action of the city or at least close to the delicious eateries, fun shops and glittering nightlife of GTB.
The included amenities are also a huge draw of zero lot line living. It is commonplace for complexes to provide luxury swimming pools complete with waterslides, sun loungers and more for residents to enjoy. Have a knack for hosting? No need to search for the perfect venue, when zero lot line living could provide the perfect space for entertaining through a charming rooftop lounge complete with stellar views.
When it comes to convenience, this living style sets an elevated standard.
Have a leak in the kitchen? No problem. Onsite maintenance staff is a common perk of zero lot line living. Ditch the commute to the local gym, because many apartments and condominiums offer state-of-the-art fitness centers just an elevator ride or short walk away.
Work remotely? Now, with the work-from-home movement, many complexes are adding shared workspaces to their lists of amenities.
Think zero lot line living may be the way to go? Luckily, the Sun Coast is teeming with excellent options. From boat slips and dog parks to rooftop lounges and luxurious pools, the amenities available in the zero lot line living of GTB are sure to fit a wide range of tastes.
Find a beachfront condo in Clearwater so that every morning cup of coffee is paired with a spectacular view. Or, live luxuriously in a high-rise in downtown St. Petersburg. In Tampa, the choices range from affordable apartment complexes to upscale condos in the heart of the city.
