About this home
Under contract-accepting backup offers. An exceptional opportunity to own a private two-acre estate in the highly sought-after East Lake corridor of Tarpon Springs. Built in 2008 and offering 2,800 MOL square feet of heated living space, this custom ranch-style residence blends architectural presence with everyday functionality in a setting that feels worlds away while remaining centrally located in Pinellas County. The interior showcases cathedral and vaulted ceilings, crown molding, skylights, ceiling fans, and a thoughtfully designed open floorplan. A wood-burning fireplace anchors the family room, creating warmth and character. The kitchen is both refined and practical, featuring solid wood cabinetry, a large island, breakfast bar, walk-in pantry, built-in oven, cooktop, and a full appliance package including washer and dryer. A dedicated den/library/office provides flexible workspace and is an ideal third bedroom complete with a bathroom en-suite. The primary suite offers privacy overlooking the expansive mature landscaped back lawn and comfort with dual sinks, a large his/hers walk-in closet, and a rain shower. Two additional full bathrooms serve the remaining bedrooms and living areas. Outdoors, the property transforms into a private resort setting. A saltwater, in-ground infinity pool and spa overlook mature landscaping and wooded surroundings. The screened covered porch and outdoor shower enhance the Florida lifestyle experience. The fully fenced acreage includes a gate and security lighting. For those needing space and versatility, the estate includes a three-car attached side-entry garage, boat parking, gravel drive, a barn complete with its own bathroom, a workshop, and multiple storage buildings. Utilities include public water and sewer, central air conditioning, electric heat pump, and a well dedicated to irrigation. Zoned A-E with no HOA, no CDD, no lease restrictions, and fee simple ownership, this homesteaded property offers rare flexibility. Located near golf courses, parks, and top-rated Brooker Creek Elementary and East Lake High School, the setting combines rural privacy with accessibility to Lake Tarpon, beaches, dining, and major commuter routes. A rare and refined offering in one of East Lake’s most desirable areas.
