YOUR FLORIDA LIFESTYLE AWAITS in resort-style MiraBay, where this 2,500-SF beauty rests along one of the exclusive boating canals with docks for easy access to Tampa Bay and the Gulf of Mexico! Boasting upgrades from brand-new wood floors to a metal roof that should last a lifetime, this home delivers excellence and elegance along a cul-de-sac just beyond the 24-hour security gate. The 2-story design welcomes you with a first-level front porch and second-level balcony, and takes advantage of your waterfront view with a screened lanai in back. Inside you'll find formal living and dining rooms in front, with one often used as an office or den, then a casual living room in back under a soaring, 30-foot ceiling -- with twin sets of French doors that open to that lovely lanai. The kitchen features long banks of raised-panel wood cabinets, stainless-steel appliances including a gas range, beveled-edge counters with an integrated sink, and a bay-windowed dining nook that overlooks the water. The master suite with luxury bath also gets the water view from the first floor, and there's a second half-bath downstairs for convenience. Upstairs is an open loft with bookcases and a window seat, plus another bath and 2 front bedrooms. One of these rooms features a handsome Murphy bed and other opens to that front balcony. Amenities include arches, art shelves, crown molding and other decorator touches, as well as advantages over other homes such as solar panels on that valuable metal roof! And of course, the best part is that it’s in MiraBay, an exclusive waterfront destination with clubhouse, recreation center, fitness classes, spa services, heated pools, parks and playgrounds, tennis and basketball, plus a private café and watersports shop. The MiraBay shopping center is right next door, and this location makes it easy to reach work and play options north to Tampa or south to Bradenton/Sarasota. Schedule your appointment today!
