About This Home

Sunshine, style, and space—this stunning 4-bedroom, 3-bath pool home delivers it all in the sought-after Steinbrenner School District. With 2,574 square feet of beautifully designed living space, a 3-car garage, and a brand-new A/C, every inch of this home is built for comfort and function. Inside, rich wood flooring flows throughout the home, creating warmth and cohesion. The split-bedroom layout offers privacy and flexibility, with updated bathrooms and thoughtful touches throughout. The kitchen stands out with its solid wood cabinetry, breakfast bar, and generous storage—ideal for both everyday meals and hosting a crowd. The primary suite is a true retreat, complete with serene views of the pool, a spacious walk-in closet, and a spa-inspired en-suite featuring wide stone counters, dual sinks, a soaking tub, and a separate glass-enclosed shower. Step outside to your personal resort—an oversized screened-in pool and spa surrounded by a large backyard, perfect for barbecues, birthday parties, or simply relaxing in the Florida sun. Whether you're entertaining friends or letting the family and pets roam, there's plenty of room to spread out and enjoy.
