Bel-Keene is an established single-residential neighborhood in south Clearwater, Pinellas County, set off Belleair Road around Bel Keene Drive and recorded in plat records as Bel-Keene 1st Addition (Pinellas County property and plat records; neighborhood real estate profiles, 2026). It is a residential pocket of individual homes rather than a gated master plan or an amenity community.
The housing stock is largely mid-century, with many homes dating to the early 1960s on midsize lots, and listing guides describe a range of roughly 1,500 to 3,000 plus square feet across the neighborhood (neighborhood real estate profiles, 2026). Because the homes are decades old, the real question on any house is what has been updated, the roof, the HVAC, the plumbing, the electrical, and the windows, versus what remains original.
Because this is an established neighborhood, the money is made or lost on the specific house and lot, not on a community brand. The drivers are the condition and updates of the individual home, the lot size and orientation, the inland flood and insurance picture, and the price relative to comparable south Clearwater homes, all of which have to be read per address from the current listing and an inspection.
The pitch is a settled, central Pinellas address: Belleair Road, downtown Clearwater, the Pinellas Trail, US 19, and the Gulf beaches at Clearwater Beach are all a reasonable drive, with Tampa across the bay via the Courtney Campbell or the bridges. The work is the diligence: read the house, the updates, the lot, and the flood zone before you buy the street.
