Eastwood Shores is an established Clearwater community of roughly 467 condos, townhomes, and villas built in the 1980s, set among mature oaks and wooded landscaping off the Whitney Road exit of US 19 in mid-county Pinellas (Eastwood Shores Property Owner Association, 2026). Section 3 is one of its numbered condominium associations, governed as Eastwood Shores Condominium No. 3.
The community is organized as several separate numbered condo associations plus an overarching property owner association, each with its own budget, reserves, and dues. That structure is the single most important thing to understand here: section 3 has its own financial picture, and the fee, reserve, and special-assessment math can differ meaningfully from the neighboring sections. Confirm the exact figures for the specific association and unit.
Housing is attached and modest in scale, with two and three bedroom units in the roughly 750 to 1,230 square foot range typical of the community, set in a park-like environment with shared pools, tennis courts, and a fishing pier near the water. This is maintenance-oriented living, so the condition of the building and the health of the association reserves matter as much as the interior of any one unit.
The pitch is established value with water access and central Pinellas location, a short hop to US 19, two airports, the Pinellas Trail, and the Gulf beaches. The work is reading the section 3 association documents, the FEMA flood zone, and the wind and flood insurance, plus the new Florida condo reserve and milestone rules, before you commit to a 1980s attached home near Old Tampa Bay.
