$150,000 PRICE REDUCTION!!!... MOTIVATED SELLER...Designed for relaxed waterfront living and elevated entertaining, this thoughtfully maintained residence in Anclote Isles, delivers a rare blend of privacy, space, and polished coastal style. Set along a tranquil river/bayou and positioned adjacent to a marina, the setting captures the lifestyle waterfront buyers seek—morning skies reflecting off the water, nearby boat activity, and the peaceful rhythm that comes with living at the water’s edge. A natural mangrove-lined shoreline enhances seclusion and preserves the authentic character of Florida’s coastal environment, while the nearby marina adds everyday convenience for boating, dining, and the waterfront scene. Inside, the home offers a comfortable, inviting flow well suited for both everyday living and hosting. Volume ceilings and abundant natural light enhance the open feel throughout the main living areas, while the layout connects the living, dining, and kitchen spaces in a way that encourages gathering. The kitchen serves as a true hub of the home, featuring generous counter space, ample cabinetry, and a design that keeps the cook connected to family and guests—ideal for casual mornings, weekend entertaining, and holiday celebrations. Multiple living areas provide flexibility to suit a variety of lifestyles. In addition to the primary living space, there is additional family room-style space that works beautifully as a media lounge, hobby area, game room, workout zone, or overflow entertaining area. This versatility supports full-time living, seasonal use, or hosting extended family with ease. Bedrooms are well-proportioned, offering privacy and comfort for owners and guests, and the overall layout balances openness with separation so everyone has room to relax. Outdoor living is a true highlight. A full screened enclosure creates a private, resort-style atmosphere centered around a heated in-ground swim spa—perfect for low-maintenance relaxation, evening unwinding, and year-round enjoyment. Surrounding deck space provides multiple areas for sun, shade, dining, and conversation, while the 12x12 tiki bar adds a signature coastal touch that elevates every gathering. From afternoon refreshments to sunset conversations, this outdoor setting was designed to be used and enjoyed. Additional highlights include a tile roof, an HVAC system approximately five years old, and the option for all furnishings to be negotiable—an added convenience for out-of-state buyers or those seeking a more seamless transition. Per seller and elevation certificate, the home has not experienced flooding, including during the 2024 hurricane season; an elevation certificate is available upon request. Low HOA annual fee. Located near schools, shopping, dining, and medical facilities, with Gulf Coast beaches and downtown Tarpon Springs just a short drive away and Tampa International Airport approximately 45 minutes from your doorstep. This is a compelling opportunity to enjoy polished coastal luxury, flexible living spaces, and a waterfront setting that supports both relaxed daily living and memorable entertaining.
