This spectacular Palm Harbor waterfront home is rich with upgrades and resort-style, alfresco space. The lake views from the screened lanai are resplendent; like a vacation in your own backyard! With a tranquil lake as a backdrop, a screened lanai also offers vistas of the shimmering pool (filter pump replaced in 2022), topped with a sail shade (installed in 2024), surrounded by variegated pavers, and crowned with tailor-made awnings (2022). A custom five-foot-wide gate was designed to accommodate everything from a jet ski trailer to a golf cart. A newer sea wall (constructed in 2022 with a 50-year warranty) borders this sumptuous space that’s encircled by a raised garden bed dressed in a stone wall and staircase separated from the deck by an elegant railing. The island that inhabits the lake is a bird sanctuary that’s also home to ducks and other wildlife. Beyond the classic double entry doors, your guests are welcomed by a blend of Travertine and hardwood floorings, luxe fixtures and finishes, four bedrooms, four baths, almost 4000 square feet, and tons of storage with both upstairs bedrooms featuring walk-in closets; there’s even under-staircase storage. Soaring vaulted ceilings and ultra-wide doorways lend to the spaciousness while two fireplaces lend warmth. All the shades are remote controlled for ease giving a high-end touch to the windows. Aside the formal living and dining rooms, a magnificent eat-in kitchen with casual dining bar showcases a wall of windows out to the lake. Besides cabinets galore, a new frig (2022) and new granite countertops (2020) this is truly a chef’s dream space. The first-floor primary suite is a retreat, boasting swoon-worthy closets (2020). Its beautifully appointed ensuite presents a jetted soaking tub beneath a picture window along with remodeled quartz countertops (2025). The first-floor guest suite may ideally serve as an in-law-suite or to accommodate the returning graduate, boasting its own balcony and water views, remodeled quartz countertops, and a new walk-in shower (2022). Painted in 2025, the flat roof was replaced in 2024, and a recent wind mitigation inspection returned a “no issues” report. The windows were treated to a heat-resistant film that helps keep the house cool and offers additional privacy. In 2022 both a new 80-gallon commercial grade water heater and new electrical service panel were mounted. Recently designated a golf cart community, you’ll enjoy “residents only” features like a community park, dog park, and private tennis/pickleball courts. Live the luxurious Florida lifestyle with wonderful restaurants, exceptional retail, and proximity to the best of the Gulf Coast.
