About this home

A Rare Private Waterfront Retreat in Northeast St. Pete with zero bridge restrictions to wide-open water and 90’ of newer seawall. This magnificently updated, move-in ready sailboat-water pool home offers an unmatched level of privacy in Northeast St. Pete that is unlike any other. What sets this property apart—and makes it so rare—is its exceptionally private waterfront positioning. Unlike typical waterfront homes where neighboring residences sit directly across the canal and limit privacy, this residence enjoys unprecedented privacy with zero neighbors across the canal and none next door to the east, creating an extraordinary sense of serenity, seclusion, and visual appeal. Enjoy sailboat water directly from your newer composite dock and 10,000-lb. boat lift (2021), with unobstructed access directly to Tampa Bay and The Gulf. Whether you're boating, fishing, island hopping, discovering nearby sandbars, or simply enjoying the water at the end of the day, this is waterfront living without compromise. Inside, the spacious 3 bedroom, 2 bath home plus bonus room/office has been completely reimagined with an all-new updated design where every detail—inside and out—has been thoughtfully planned for even the most discerning homeowner. From the moment you step inside, a stunning modern retreat unfolds around you. Private saltwater canal views greet you from nearly every room, while brand-new flooring flows seamlessly throughout, enhancing the home's elevated custom feel. The open-concept living space remains beautifully intact, free from awkward patio conversions or transitional step-downs—a clean, cohesive design that maintains both form and function. Enjoy worry-free living with an impressive list of high-end updates: impact windows, roof, seawall (2020), brand-new elevated HVAC system (2024), new water heater (2024), upgraded electrical, ample storage, and fully redesigned kitchen and bathrooms. Set on an oversized lot, the expansive circular driveway accommodates up to
