About This Home

One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Welcome to a Palm Harbor home that lives effortlessly from day one—renovated with intention and styled for modern comfort. Behind a freshly painted interior (2024), you’ll find a bright, open layout where a fully remodeled kitchen (2024) with sleek cabinetry and luxe Dolomite stone countertops flows into a vaulted living room made for gathering. Durable new ceramic tile runs throughout (2024), while the big-ticket systems are already handled: a brand-new roof and AC (both 2023) and a newer water heater (2022) deliver long-term peace of mind. The spa-inspired primary suite is a true retreat with dual vanities, his-and-hers closets, marble countertops, a deep soaking tub, and a beautifully tiled walk-in shower. Versatility abounds with a dedicated flex space for a home office or creative nook, plus a climate-controlled enclosed back room that invites lounging, play, or year-round entertaining. Outdoors, a fully fenced backyard offers privacy, a screened front lanai is perfect for unwinding on Florida evenings, and a rear garage door opens to a covered carport—ideal for extra parking, backyard access, or storing a boat or trailer. Set near top-rated schools, parks, shopping, and Gulf beaches, the home sits within sought-after Lake Shore Estates, where a voluntary association provides access to a clubhouse and private boat ramp with direct entry to 2,500-acre Lake Tarpon for boating and fishing. Added confidence comes from an assumable flood-insurance policy and owner-reported no damage from the 2024 storms—an exceptional, move-in-ready opportunity in one of Palm Harbor’s most desirable neighborhoods.
