What's special

This home does not have a true list of comparables because it outperforms the neighborhood in a premier location, double lot size, and impeccable condition. It's not priced as an average home; it's priced as the best-positioned property in the area. Own a piece of Florida’s hidden waterfront legacy! This luxury lakefront property blends historic charm, modern comfort, and outdoor adventure, a real lakehouse resort style. A timeless mid-century modern design with upscale finishes, this home sits on a rare double lot (26,136) accessed by a private driveway lined with oaks and tropical foliage, culminating in a spectacular Royal Poinciana tree—a true showpiece when in bloom. From the moment you arrive, enjoy a breathtaking view of 2,534-acre Lake Tarpon, one of Pinellas County’s largest freshwater lakes—ideal for bass fishing, boating, jet-skiing, and wildlife watching. Relax or entertain on your private dock overlooking the water. This 3-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom residence has been completely updated and meticulously maintained, showcasing over $314,000 in premium upgrades. Significant improvements include a new roof, a new A/C system, a new hot-water heater, updated electrical, an updated gas fireplace, a Generac whole-home generator, an A/C in the garage, and a new Jacuzzi added to the pool for ultimate relaxation and year-round comfort. Step inside to discover luxury vinyl flooring throughout, crown molding, and bright, open spaces filled with natural light. The chef’s kitchen is a masterpiece, featuring a custom-built espresso machine, a gas range, a large center island with deep storage drawers, and barn doors concealing additional pantry space. The custom bar features a built-in beer tap, dual wine coolers, and a hidden charging station. A coastal-living wood ceiling adds warmth and character to the space. The open living area highlights bay windows framing the pool, spa, and patio, seamlessly connecting to the covered boat dock. The pool area was expanded to include a custom spa, while the lanai showcases a handcrafted cypress-wood ceiling and dual-blade ceiling fans, creating a serene retreat. Outdoors, enjoy underground utilities, a reclaimed-water sprinkler system, and a reverse-osmosis (RO) water system for convenience and efficiency. Every feature has been thoughtfully curated to deliver true turn-key, move-in-ready luxury. Enjoy serenity, sophistication, and no HOA—your private lakefront sanctuary on beautiful Lake Tarpon awaits.
