Residential Property - Single Family Residence in Tarpon Springs
Listing Price: $699,900
Description of Property
This exceptional Tarpon Springs property offers nearly half an acre of lush, storybook-like beauty enveloping a character-rich Victorian-style home. With passion fruit vines, avocado (only 2 years old so will fruit in 5 more years), banana, star fruit, and moringa trees throughout the grounds—and a tranquil small pond anchoring the landscape—the setting feels like a private sanctuary. The additional .19-acre parcel greatly expands the sense of space, making it perfect for gardening, outdoor recreation, or the type of creative use the seller currently enjoys. A paver driveway and walkway lead to the wrap-around porch and into the heart of the home. Inside, real hardwood flooring spans most of the main level, while the family room features luxury vinyl plank and a cozy gas fireplace. The property includes a buried propane tank, which efficiently fuels the gas range, water heater, home heating, and fireplace—a highly desirable feature, offering comfort and cost efficiency. The kitchen provides abundant cabinetry, generous prep space, and a large walk-in pantry—ideal for everyday cooking or entertaining. Upstairs, the primary suite includes two large walk-in closets and an ensuite bath with a jetted tub and a separate shower with dual showerheads. Additional conveniences include an upstairs laundry chute, a spacious first-floor laundry room, and a 2-car garage with excellent overhead storage. A standout feature of this home is its proven durability: throughout the severe 2024 storms that caused widespread flooding and damage, this home stayed entirely dry and experienced no damage whatsoever, offering incredible peace of mind. With .48 acres of captivating grounds, abundant fruit trees, room to garden, and endless opportunities for outdoor living, this property delivers a one-of-a-kind lifestyle. And with Fred Howard Park, local beaches, the famous Tarpon Springs Sponge Docks, downtown restaurants, boutique shops, and coastal parks only minutes away, the location offers the perfect balance of nature, recreation, and convenience.
