719 ISLEBAY DRIVE

719 Islebay Drive is a 4-bedroom, 3-bath, 3,097 sq ft Nohl Crest–built Hemingway floorplan on an end-of-canal waterfront lot in the gated community of MiraBay. This single-story pool home sits on one of the closest canals to Tampa Bay, offering a straight 5-minute route with no bridges, lifts, or locks. The home is fully powered by an owned solar system that produces monthly credits, keeping electric costs close to zero. ***** Important Energy Feature This home has a zero electric bill. It is fully solar-powered, and all solar is paid in full. The system produces enough energy to run the entire home, and there is a separate solar system for the pool, which pumps warm water continuously. The home also features a metal roof, eliminating concerns about removing solar panels for future roof work. The kitchen includes a Thermador stove, newer appliances, quartz counters, a ceiling-height porcelain backsplash, enhanced cabinetry, an extra-long island with storage, under-cabinet lighting, and a second butler-style pantry. The kitchen also features a dedicated return-air system, one of the smartest upgrades for a serious cooking space. High-CFM range hoods pull large volumes of air from the home, and without a return path, homes can experience negative pressure leading to comfort issues, higher energy use, poor air quality, and back-drafting from gas appliances. This system keeps the kitchen balanced and safe, protects the HVAC system, and improves overall comfort and ventilation while cooking. The home has new porcelain tile throughout and new carpet in the guest rooms. Interior features include remodeled bathrooms, custom built-in closets, tall ceilings, a dedicated office, and an extra flex room that can be used as a second office, lounge, sitting room, or formal dining room. The split-bedroom layout allows for a true mother-in-law setup with a separate entrance. The primary suite includes a large walk-in shower, dual vanities, custom closets, and an additional flex space overlooking the canal. Mechanical updates include two newer AC units with infrared air purification, a tankless water heater, water softener and RO system, a smart irrigation controller, and a newer garage door mechanism. Interior and exterior paint and two remodeled bathrooms were completed in recent years. Outdoor updates include a new lanai (2025), pool resurfacing (2025), new pavers (2025), WiFi-enabled pool equipment, solar-thermal pool heating with electric backup, a full-perimeter cooling misting system, upgraded patio fans, infrared patio heaters, and a dedicated patio misting fan, creating a comfortable resort-style outdoor environment even during the hottest Florida months. The screened outdoor area also offers space for a future outdoor kitchen. The private dock includes power and water, a jet ski lift, and a 10,000-lb boat lift installed in 2022. The home is located on a quiet cul-de-sac near a large common area and is close to all MiraBay amenities, including the 24-hour gym, resort-style pools, tennis, pickleball, basketball, sauna, café, lounge, walking trails, and the fully golf-cart-friendly lifestyle the community is known for.
