About this home
Discover this beautifully updated waterfront canal home offering direct access to Lake Tarpon and an exceptional blend of luxury, functionality, and long-term durability. This spacious 5-bedroom, 3.5-bath, 4,496 sq ft residence features a rare first-floor mother-in-law suite with a private close-off pocket door option, ideal for guests, multigenerational living, or extended stays. A standout feature is the oversized 3-car garage, complete with a built-in 10×10 storage room and extensive built-in shelving, providing unmatched storage and organization. The home has undergone major capital improvements in recent years, making it truly move-in ready. A new roof was installed in April 2021, followed by three new HVAC systems replaced in May 2023 for optimal comfort and efficiency. In October 2019, the entire exterior was upgraded with Hardie-Board color plus siding installed over full house wrap, eliminating the need for ongoing painting and offering superior moisture and pest resistance. That same year, all windows and pool-deck sliding doors were replaced (October 2019), enhancing hurricane resilience, energy efficiency, and insurance savings. Outdoor living shines with a large screened pool enclosure and a fully refurbished private dock completed in September 2023, featuring davits, covered lifts, and direct canal access for boating enthusiasts. Inside, the home boasts two full kitchens, two laundry rooms, a dramatic three-story foyer, and premium finishes throughout. For buyers seeking a turn-key experience, the property can be purchased fully furnished, offering a seamless transition into one of Palm Harbor’s most desirable waterfront lifestyles. NOTE- NO HOA FEES, NO DEED RESTRICTIONS, NO FLOOD INSURANCE- SEE LOMA ATTACHED. “Includes full 360° virtual tour and walkable video for remote buyers.” SEE ATTACHMENTS AND VIDEO TOUR LINKS- INCLUDES FLOOR PLAN LAYOUT INTERFACE WITH 360 VIDEO WALK THRU
Local Insight
At $411/sqft for a 1988 waterfront home on just 0.15 acres in Lake Tarpon Estates, you're paying a premium for water access and the pool, but you should have a thorough inspection given the age and understand that the tight lot size limits expansion options. The no-flood zone is a genuine plus in Pinellas County, and the location hits solid public schools, but verify the seawall condition and dock maintenance costs upfront since waterfront repairs can be substantial. This price point puts you in competitive territory with newer construction inland, so the decision really hinges on how much you value the water lifestyle versus having a larger, more modern footprint.
