Waterfront living takes center stage at this distinctive Palmetto residence, where approximately 81 feet of saltwater canal frontage and unobstructed access to the Intracoastal create an exceptional setting for those who want to experience Florida from the water. From quiet mornings overlooking the canal to afternoons spent boating toward Anna Maria Island, this is a home designed around the coastal lifestyle. Offering approximately 2,941 square feet, the three-bedroom, three-bath residence pairs generous living spaces with beautiful water views. Hardwood flooring lends warmth to the formal living and dining areas, while the spacious kitchen features Bosch stainless steel appliances, abundant storage, a walk-in pantry and a breakfast area overlooking the water. The primary suite enjoys its own waterfront perspective, complemented by a private screened lanai, walk-in closet and dual-vanity bath. A flexible bonus room provides an ideal setting for an office or study, while the lower-level great room opens to another screened lanai and includes a convenient pool bath and substantial storage. Outdoors, the property becomes a private waterfront retreat. A heated gunite pool is surrounded by space to relax and entertain, while the composite dock features a covered cleaning station with power and water, a 5,000-pound boat lift and additional davits. The concrete seawall and deep-water sailboat canal provide a compelling setup for boating enthusiasts, with no fixed obstructions between the property and the Intracoastal. An oversized two-car garage, metal roof and mature landscaping complete the property. Set within Palmetto Skyway, the location offers convenient access to the waters of Tampa Bay, the Intracoastal and the Gulf beyond—bringing boating, fishing and the relaxed character of Florida’s Gulf Coast directly into everyday life.
