Virginia Groves Estates is an established single-family neighborhood in east Clearwater, in Pinellas County, platted on former citrus-grove land with streets named for fruit, including Grapefruit Circle, Pineapple Lane, and Navel Drive (Clearwater real estate neighborhood guides, 2026). Homes were built generally from the mid 1950s into the 1980s, a mid-century neighborhood of detached houses rather than a new master-planned community.
The neighborhood sits off State Road 590 just west of McMullen-Booth Road, an inland east Clearwater location near the Safety Harbor line. Listing guides describe homes ranging from roughly 1,000 to about 1,850 square feet on conventional lots, with the subdivision recorded in an original plat and a first addition; confirm the exact size, year built, and lot for any specific address.
Because these are individual detached homes, the money is made or lost on the house and the lot, not on the address alone. The drivers are the condition of the structure, the roof age and the plumbing and electrical systems on a home of this era, the FEMA flood zone, and the insurance lines, all of which have to be read from the inspection, the survey, and a real insurance quote for the exact property.
The pitch is an established, centrally located east Clearwater address: State Road 590 and McMullen-Booth Road give quick reach to Safety Harbor, Countryside, and the Westfield Countryside Mall area, with the Pinellas Gulf beaches a manageable drive west. The work is the diligence: read the inspection and the roof, quote the insurance, and check the flood zone before you buy the mature lot.
