What's special

Set along the beautiful waters of Tampa Bay in the coveted island community of Coquina Key, discover a masterpiece of coastal living where every detail shines. Recently enhanced with a host of modern and convenient upgrades. Excitedly enough, this waterfront home remained completely untouched by Hurricane Helene, allowing you to enjoy the luxurious coastal lifestyle with absolute peace of mind. Step inside this 4 bedroom, 2 bath home to find a fully remodeled interior (2022), where an open-concept layout amplifies natural light and picturesque water views from every vantage point. The heart of the home, a gourmet kitchen, delights with smart-enabled appliances, quartz countertops, and a custom waterfall island designed for gatherings. An ingenious gas strut pass-through window connects the kitchen to the expansive covered lanai, creating a seamless blend of indoor/outdoor living. Retreat to the master suite, a sanctuary of comfort with an ensuite bathroom featuring a double vanity, infinity shower, and captivating water views. The fourth bedroom doubles as a serene home office, complete with custom features and tranquil bay vistas, perfect for productivity and inspiration. Outside, you will find a luxurious swim spa, meticulously installed on a solid concrete pad for year-round enjoyment and a private dock with a drop-down launch invites aquatic adventures, while the deep-water canal beckons boating enthusiasts with easy access to Tampa Bay and beyond. The entire house was remodeled only two years ago. Other recent upgrades include new plumbing, both under the house and out to the street to ensure seamless functionality, a brand new air conditioner with a UVC light system for pristine indoor air quality, hurricane impact windows, the roof is new as of 2020. Electric remote-controlled screens grace the back patio, ideal for enhancing outdoor living, while a garage mini-split system ensures comfort and convenience. Located just moments from downtown St. Petersburg, renowned beaches, and major thoroughfares, Coquina Key is an island community consisting of a variety of single-family homes, waterfront mansions, townhomes, and condos. There are only two entrances to the island, giving it a secluded feel. Residents often have neighborhood get-togethers and celebrations at the local community park that features a dog park, basketball courts, walking path and much more. Nearby is Coquina Key Shopping Plaza, Lake Maggiore and Boyd Hill Nature Preserve. This is more than a home, this is a lifestyle – waterfront island living full of comfort and convenience.
