There’s also an expansive side patio serving as the ideal spot for taking in the sun, lounging in the hot tub, or enjoying a cozy fire pit on those refreshing fall and winter evenings. Lush grass edged with decorative stone and slate form a charming pathway leading to the pavered walk and seawall completed in 2015.

In addition to the home’s raised construction, beneath a standing, seam metal roof, a Trane A/C unit, lcynene insulation, and a central vacuum system are installed besides PGT hurricane-impact, insulated windows, and pocket sliders. Reclaimed water cycles through a Rainbird sprinkler system. The three-car garage boasts 2300 ft and 8-foot doors with their own battery backup. Beyond this uniquely designed manse, you’re surrounded by the absolute beauty of Tarpon Springs. Famed for its historic sponge docks, it’s a 5-minute walk to downtown’s eclectic shops and dining; a less than 5-minute ride to Sunset Beach and Fred Howard Park; a 20-minute boat ride to the magnificent Gulf of Mexico that leads to Anclote Key, Three Rooker Island, and Honeymoon Island; and a bit farther south to the world-famous Clearwater Beach. You’re also just a short distance from Delightful Dunedin, the multi-purpose Pinellas Trail, and only 40 minutes to Tampa International Airport and the city’s cultural hot spots.
