Description
Welcome to refined Florida living in Grand Cypress, a gated community with private resident boat access to Lake Tarpon. Set amid lush green space, mature trees and shimmering lake views, this exceptional residence offers four bedrooms, three full bathrooms, an additional flex room and nearly 3,100 square feet of living space. A heated screened pool with brick-paver decking, three-car garage and Mediterranean tile roof complete the setting. The exterior was painted and the bulkhead redone in 2026. For added peace of mind, a 22 kW Generac whole-home generator was installed in 2025 and connected to the gas line with two 200-amp automatic transfer switches. An eagle's nest is visible from the backyard. Throughout the seller's ownership, eagles have returned to the nest and raised their young, offering a rare opportunity to observe them against the backdrop of Lake Tarpon and the surrounding preserve. Double leaded-glass entry doors open to an impressive foyer and gallery-style hallway with high ceilings, eight-foot doors, crown and picture-frame moldings and a neutral palette. Brazilian cherry wood flooring enriches the main living areas, while chiseled travertine is featured in the kitchen, secondary hallways, laundry room and bathrooms. The well-planned layout provides generous gathering spaces while keeping the bedroom wings comfortably separated. The formal dining room, great room, kitchen and casual dining area flow together in an open arrangement. Triple sliding doors frame the pool, green space and lake views while connecting the interior to the covered lanai. The kitchen features 42-inch wood cabinetry, undercabinet lighting, granite countertops, custom backsplash, five-burner gas cooktop, built-in oven and microwave, stainless steel appliances, custom range hood, center island, breakfast bar and full pantry. The private owner's suite offers direct pool access and serene Lake Tarpon views. Its spa-like bathroom includes dual vanities, soaking tub, walk-in shower and private water closet. Two walk-in closets plus an additional California Closets system provide exceptional wardrobe storage. Near the entrance, a separate wing includes a full guest bathroom and the flex room, currently used as a jewelry design studio and equally suited for an office, creative or exercise studio, bonus room or guest accommodations. Two additional bedrooms and another full bathroom occupy a separate wing. The oversized laundry room includes a utility sink and abundant storage with access to the three-car garage. Tall garage ceilings provide vertical storage plus room for an extra refrigerator. Additional features include impact-resistant, energy-efficient windows and doors, plantation shutters, tray ceilings, upgraded trim, a central vacuum system with floor sweeps, tankless water heater, landscape irrigation and plumbing for a future poolside kitchen and outdoor shower. The heated screened pool, covered lanai and brick-paver deck create a private setting for dining, entertaining or enjoying the lake breeze. Residents enjoy a community boat ramp and dock with direct access to Lake Tarpon, Pinellas County's largest freshwater lake, offering more than 2,500 acres for boating, fishing and recreation. Grand Cypress is near Innisbrook Golf Resort, Downtown Palm Harbor, Gulf beaches, shopping, dining and the historic Tarpon Springs Sponge Docks, with convenient access to Tampa International Airport.
