This exceptional two-story waterfront residence offers 2,655 heated square feet of living space and presents a unique opportunity for customization. The property was affected by Hurricane Helene, resulting in flooding; however, the drywall has been professionally removed, and the structure thoroughly dried, providing a blank canvas ready for your vision. According to FEMA guidelines, the existing structure can be retained with improvements permitted up to $188,749 under the 49% rule. Prior to the storm, this home was meticulously maintained by the same owners for over 50 years and featured numerous updates, including two brand-new HVAC systems and a roof installed in 2017. The residence boasts formal living and dining rooms, creating an inviting atmosphere for entertaining. A distinctive circular staircase leads to an expansive loft area, suitable for a home office, playroom, or media room. The recently updated kitchen is equipped with granite countertops and elegant cabinetry, offering a functional space for culinary endeavors. Adjacent to the spacious laundry room is a convenient half bath, enhancing the home’s practicality. The grand entrance foyer further adds to the welcoming ambiance. Experience serene waterfront living with a quick boat ride to the open waters of Tampa Bay. The property includes a newer seawall and dock, ideal for boating enthusiasts or peaceful relaxation by the water.
