About This Home

As of May 2025

Lutz lakefront 4/3 + office home with NO HOA located in a top-rated school district! Most of this home has been updated from the inside out, including a new roof in 2024, two HVAC systems and duct work in 2023 and 2024, additional electric panel, and new well pump and septic in 2020. In addition, the deck and dock were replaced in 2025, and the pool was renovated and resurfaced (Diamond Brite) along with a new variable speed pump and privacy fence. The exterior was also repainted in 2025. The home sits on Lake Barbara with access to Lake Helen, which is a ski lake. The owners’ suite, with a private screened-in porch with access to the pool deck, features a large bedroom and walk-in closet with a brand new bathroom: double vanity with raised quartz counter and two undermount sinks and a huge shower with a wide niche and two shower heads. The downstairs secondary bedroom has access to a renovated full bath, which features a new vanity, new flooring, tub/shower with tile all the way up the shower wall. The floor plan is bright and open with lots of natural light and lake views from many of the rooms. The formal space can easily accommodate a living and dining area. And the bonus sunroom is a perfect place to read, relax and enjoy the lake views. Flooring throughout the home is upgraded tile and top-of-the-line LVP. New light fixtures include LED recessed lighting. The garage includes an extra 350 sq feet (approximately) of space for a workshop, home gym, storage. The oversized and extended driveway provides plenty of room for additional vehicles including a boat or an RV! Conveniently located minutes from Dale Mabry Highway and the Veterans with access to all major roads, downtown Tampa, St. Pete, the beaches and Tampa International Airport. Driveway is currently under repair and should be completed by 3/15.
