Overview

This meticulously maintained, custom-built single-level home in the highly desirable Sands Point neighborhood of Tierra Verde exemplifies the pinnacle of Florida waterfront living, enveloped by mature landscaping and combining luxury, comfort, and security in one elevated residence. Demonstrating exceptional resilience, the house was undamaged by the hurricanes of 2024, withstanding both flood and wind without incident—a true testament to its robust, superior construction. Wake each day to tranquil water views, savor your morning coffee on the patio, and enjoy the ease of having your boat moored just steps away on a protected canal that leads swiftly to the open waters of Tampa Bay and the Gulf of Mexico. Unmatched in location and amenities, the home offers 80 feet of unobstructed waterfront with sunset vistas, a boater-friendly dock that fits a 55-foot yacht and a 10,000-pound lift for a 30-foot vessel, plus essential utilities and direct water access. The quality block construction, stone facade, roll-down storm shutters, PGT Windgard™ windows, and high-and-dry single-level layout provide peace of mind through any storm, while the elegant interior features four bedrooms, three baths, oak flooring, vaulted ceilings, energy-efficient upgrades, rapid internet, skylights, and comprehensive video surveillance for added peace and modern living. The gourmet kitchen, GE Profile appliances, a breakfast nook, and a versatile table for meals or entertaining, and the primary suite delivers both luxury and comfort with water views, a walk-in closet, his and hers granite-topped vanities, and a designer shower. Designed for year-round indoor-outdoor living, the rain-protected lanai, pool, and built-in Jacuzzi provide waterfront relaxation, while an oversized two-car garage ensures ample storage for all activities. With direct access to the Pinellas Trail’s biking and walking paths, plus only minuets to the beaches of Ft. Desota and convenient proximity to St. Petersburg, Tampa, and Sarasota, this rare residence truly marries elegance, maritime charm, freedom, and the promise of unforgettable waterfront memories.
