About this home
Just minutes from the world-famous Tarpon Springs Sponge Docks and the beautiful beach at Fred Howard Park, this beachy and beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 2-bath pool home offers the ideal Florida lifestyle. Located across the street from scenic Kreamer Bayou, the neighborhood features quiet streets perfect for walking, jogging, and biking while remaining close to the Gulf of Mexico and historic downtown Tarpon Springs. This 1,812-square-foot single-family home sits on a private, nearly ¼-acre fenced lot with a 12x25 covered carport, extended driveway, and backyard shed for additional storage. An inviting covered front porch welcomes you inside to a spacious living room featuring vaulted ceilings, abundant natural light, fresh interior paint, and luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout. The updated kitchen features new cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a breakfast bar, and opens to a family room with hurricane-rated sliding doors leading to the pool area. The screened lanai and large covered patio overlook the sparkling pool, creating the perfect space for relaxing or entertaining. The primary suite includes a large walk-in closet with built-ins and a beautifully remodeled ensuite bathroom featuring a tiled shower with rain showerhead, granite vanity, two linen closets, and an additional vanity area with pendant lighting. The middle bedroom is ideal for a home office and connects to a remodeled Jack-and-Jill bathroom with tiled tub/shower combination and granite vanity. A spacious rear bedroom offers recessed lighting, ceiling fan, and pool views. The oversized yard provides plenty of room for outdoor gear such as kayaks and paddleboards, with a storage shed for convenience. Enjoy living less than one mile from Fred Howard Park and beach, and within two miles of the Pinellas Trail, Sunset Beach, historic downtown Tarpon Springs, the Sponge Docks, and Craig Park. The area is known for its vibrant festivals, waterfront parks, golf courses, kayaking trails, and easy access to nearby islands and Anclote Key Preserve State Park. With its desirable location, pool, and proximity to beaches, parks, and downtown attractions, this property would make an excellent primary residence, vacation home, or investment opportunity with strong rental potential.
Local Insight
At $254/sqft for a 1956 home in an AE flood zone, you're paying a premium that reflects the pool and Bayshore location more than the bones—flood insurance will be a real line item here, so factor that into your true carrying costs before committing. The lot's tight at 0.22 acres and you're in an older subdivision without HOA protections, which means no one's controlling what neighbors do with their properties, though that also means no dues eating into equity. If the pool and waterfront access justify the flood risk and insurance burden for your situation, it's worth a close inspection of the foundation and any previous water damage, but this isn't a screaming value play.
