One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Rare Find: Fully Updated Country Retreat on Nearly 1/2 Acre - No HOA Restrictions Looking for freedom, space, and total privacy? This is it. Welcome to Honeybee Lane, where you'll discover what so many buyers are desperately seeking: a completely renovated home on an oversized lot with zero restrictions and endless possibilities. While others are dealing with HOA fees, deed restrictions, and postage-stamp lots, you can enjoy nearly half an acre of fenced privacy with room for boats, RVs, workshops, or whatever your lifestyle demands. Complete Renovation - Move Right In Every detail has been thoughtfully updated. The stunning kitchen features new soft-close wood cabinetry, granite counters, under-cabinet lighting, and stainless GE appliances centered around a spacious island. Throughout the home, you'll find fresh paint, large tile flooring, luxury vinyl plank, and vinyl double-paned windows that flood each room with natural light. Flexible Living Spaces That Work for You The primary suite includes a gorgeous renovated ensuite with floor-to-ceiling custom tile, while two additional bedrooms offer flexibility—perfect for a home office, craft room, or cozy guest space. The bonus living area at the rear opens to a covered lanai, extending your living space outdoors to a paver patio and extra-large gazebo that's ideal for entertaining or storing your toys. Outdoor Paradise Included Your oversized lot comes complete with a 12x16 shed and even includes a John Deere riding mower. The fenced property offers the privacy and space that's nearly impossible to find in today's market, especially at this price point. Nature Lover's Dream Location Step outside your door to incredible recreational opportunities. Double Branch boat ramp is just one minute away, while Upper Tampa Bay State Park (0.25 miles) offers canoeing, kayaking, hiking, and bike trails. Despite the peaceful, country setting, you're only 15 minutes from Safety Harbor and 20 minutes to Dunedin's beaches and breweries. The Investment Reality Yes, this property requires flood insurance (approximately $4,500 annually including contents), but consider what you're getting in return: no HOA fees, no deed restrictions, no neighbors looking over your fence, and nearly half an acre of freedom. For many buyers, that represents exactly what they've been searching for. Perfect For: Buyers wanting space for boats, RVs, or workshops Those seeking privacy and no HOA restrictions Nature enthusiasts and outdoor recreation lovers Anyone tired of cramped lots and neighborhood rules Investors looking for unique properties with upside potential Bottom Line: This isn't just a house—it's a lifestyle. If you value space, privacy, and the freedom to use your property as you choose, the flood insurance becomes a small price to pay for something this rare in today's market. Ready to escape the restrictions and embrace the freedom? Schedule your showing today and see why life really is sweeter on Honeybee Lane.
