This waterfront, tropical paradise is situated on a quiet cud-de-sac and has been recently upgraded and meticulously maintained by its current owner. The home backs up to an idyllic, protected cove just 700 yards from the ICW. The yard has been landscaped with lush tropical plants and mature palms, and the backyard and pool area are walled-in to create a serene and very private surrounding not commonly found among waterfront homes. Behind the perimeter wall is a side-yard patio with brick pavers reminiscent of a Key West style paradise ideal for enjoying morning coffee or evening entertaining. On the other side of the home, even the mechanicals' section has paver bricks and an outdoor storage shed. The backyard’s expansive patio showcases fabulous water views and overlooks the pebbletec pool and the newly remodeled composite dock with 8,000lbs boat lift and kayak launch. The front yard features a spacious concrete and brick circular driveway and a covered entry to the home. Stepping inside, you will find stunning, diagonally laid, polished porcelain tile throughout. All bedrooms have wood or bamboo flooring. Large picture windows and multiple skylights bathe the interior with bright natural light. The well designed kitchen features solid wood cabinetry, a pantry with wood-framed glass doors, granite counter tops and backsplashes, a large farmer’s sink, stainless steal appliances, a breakfast bar and a desk or computer workstation. In addition to the living room and family room, there is a separate dinning area as well as a full sized office. The indoor laundry room with utility sink, provides plenty of cabinetry and armoires for dehumidified indoor storage. Recent upgrades include: New garage door and opener, pool pavers, gutters, exterior paint, A/C unit, bathtub in 2nd bath, LED overhead lights, new windows, breaker panel, water heater, new dock stringers and composite deck. Conveniently located close to major thoroughfares, excellent dinning, shopping and Pinellas county’s world renowned beaches. Don't let this gem pass you by.
