Skycrest is close to shopping, schools and parks
Around 3 miles from downtown Clearwater, Skycrest is a mix of residential blocks, commercial centers and schools. But its neighborhood park ensures nature is a short walk or drive away. “A lot of homes have recently been renovated in this neighborhood, and it’s known for a lot of Airbnbs because it’s so strategically located by Tampa Bay,” says Plamen Petkov, a Realtor and broker with #1 Realty Group who has an office in the neighborhood. Commuters can easily take Gulf to Bay Boulevard to Tampa in one direction and Clearwater Beach in the other.
Neighbors of Skycrest have many retail options to choose from nearby.

Gulf to Bay Boulevard, buses and nearby airports
Some homes may be within walking distance of shops, restaurants and amenities, but some roads in the area aren't pedestrian-friendly. “When you're coming from Tampa to Clearwater Beach, Gulf to Bay Boulevard is the main street,” Petkov says. “It’s a busy road and dangerous to walk there.” There are Pinellas Suncoast Transit Authority bus stops along some of the major roads like Drew Street. The drive to St. Pete–Clearwater International Airport takes around 8 miles down the Bayside Bridge, and Tampa International Airport is about 15 miles away on the Courtney Campbell Causeway. The latter offers a shuttle service between the two airports.
Dining at local restaurants and shopping at retail plazas
There are several restaurants and shops along Gulf to Bay Boulevard, which runs through the neighborhood. There’s a mix of chains like Culver’s and local eateries, including Pierogi Grill, serving Polish cuisine. "Skycrest is next to a few shopping plazas,” Petkov says. “There's a nice Publix there and a lot of restaurants.” Downtown Clearwater is a hub for beachy eateries with outdoor seating. Clearwater Mall is also close by with Target and Costco.
Pierogi Grill welcomes Skycrest neighbors to try out their delicious Polish food.
