Under contract-accepting backup offers. Spectacular Waterfront Oasis with Over $250K in Upgrades! Enjoy the best of coastal living in this 4-bedroom, 2-bath home featuring nearly 70 feet of saltwater canal frontage with direct access to Tampa Bay. In 2021, the exterior was completely upgraded with over $250,000 in improvements, including a new seawall, WearDeck composite dock, extended travertine lanai, resurfaced pool with new coping and waterline tile, and a 10,000 lb boat lift—perfect for boating and entertaining. Additional 2022 upgrades include a new HVAC system, 200-amp electrical panel, high-capacity tankless water heater, and complete replumbing throughout the home. Recently remediated after Hurricane Helene, the property offers a solid foundation ready for your personal vision. The primary suite, tucked privately at the rear of the home, includes direct access to a screened-in porch overlooking the pool and canal. Three additional bedrooms have space for family, guests, or a home office, and the interior features a spacious family room and bright Florida room ideal for relaxing or entertaining. Outside, enjoy your private backyard retreat with travertine decking, a covered lounge area, large, fenced yard, sparkling pool, and tranquil canal views. Located in Bay Crest, a desirable waterfront community with residents-only boat ramp access, you're just a short boat ride from Bahama Breeze, Hula Bay, Salt Shack, Safety Harbor, and the St. Pete Pier. This prime location also offers easy access to the Veterans Expressway, I-275, Tampa International Airport, Downtown Tampa, International Plaza, Westshore Business District, Rocky Point Golf Course, Skyway Park, Berkley Prep, and the area's best beaches. Don’t miss the chance to restore and customize this exceptional waterfront gem! Note: Interior photos reflect the home prior to flood remediation.
