Welcome to Paradise! This tropical oasis is more than just a home—it's a luxurious retreat ready for you to move in and enjoy. Every detail has been meticulously upgraded, demonstrating that the current owners invested generously in transforming this property into a state-of-the-art haven. Its contemporary style exterior captivates with a refreshing color palette and striking architectural design. Approach through the beautifully landscaped walkway to the stylish contemporary front door, and step into a home where joy and elegance await at every turn. In 2023, the home was enhanced with new Luxury Waterproof Vinyl flooring, tall baseboards, and custom woodwork around windows throughout the main living areas. All windows and doors are now impact grade, including two additional impact windows added to the living room. The high ceilings in the dining and living room areas add a sense of grandeur and spaciousness. The kitchen and bathroom were completely redone in 2023, featuring granite countertops, exquisite cabinetry, updated lighting, modern electrical outlets, and top-of-the-line appliances, along with a large breakfast counter overlooking the front yard. Both bedrooms are cozy, tastefully decorated, and equipped with modern ceiling fans. The roof was replaced in 2024, and the home has been updated with a new irrigation pump (2023), water heater (2021), and A/C system including ductwork (2021). An oversized storage shed matching the home's aesthetic was built and permitted in 2021 with storm tie-downs. Step out onto the screened-in lanai and admire the fenced gardens that envelop the property, located just off a serene lake in a private setting. One side of the home is perfectly suited for storing kayaks or other large water sport vessels, while the other sides feature gravel pathways and ample yard space for additional leisure activities, gardens, or a pool. Situated near Howard Park, Sunset Beach, local dining, bars, shops, and the world-famous Tarpon Springs Sponge Docks, this home offers an active lifestyle with trails and walkways ideal for biking, walking, or jogging. Just a 30-minute drive to both PIE and TIA airports, this location couldn’t be more convenient. Don't miss out on this exceptionally remodeled and tastefully decorated dream home. Schedule a showing today and start living the good life in this unparalleled masterpiece!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
