About This Home

As of May 2026

Welcome to 36 Citrus Drive in Palm Harbor, a rare waterfront gem offering direct access to beautiful Lake Tarpon. Situated on a deep-water canal with approximately 60 feet of canal width, this property is a dream for boating enthusiasts, featuring a covered boathouse with a 4,000 lb electric boat lift suitable for a V-hull or pontoon, a dedicated jet ski house, and three jet ski ports. The exterior is designed for low-maintenance living, with maintenance-free backyard and side yards enhanced by newer pavers, composite decking, and rubber mulch. The front yard is beautifully landscaped with irrigation and automatic lighting, while gutters and a French drain system provide excellent water management. Enjoy quick, easy access to the open waters of Lake Tarpon from your private dock, complemented by a newer seawall for added peace of mind. The covered outdoor living space is equally impressive, featuring a sparkling in-ground pool and a fully equipped outdoor kitchen—perfect for relaxing or entertaining year-round. Inside, the home has been completely updated throughout, showcasing hurricane-impact windows, elegant plantation shutters, tile flooring, updated baseboards, interior doors, and modern hardware. The remodeled kitchen is both stylish and functional, and the home also features new plumbing throughout, a dedicated laundry room with utility sink, and a Rheem AC system for comfort and efficiency. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence or a vacation retreat, this move-in-ready waterfront property delivers the ultimate Florida lifestyle.
