Description

Classic Florida living in desirable Lake Shore Estates! This unique canal-front home, built in 1958, sits on a rare double lot (approx. 0.31 acre) at the end of a cul-de-sac with direct access and left facing view to Lake Tarpon — Pinellas County’s largest freshwater lake. Enjoy peaceful canal frontage with a serene backyard setting. Stainless steel appliances are in the kitchen. The layout includes 5 bedrooms, with one currently used as a workout room/office featuring a built-in corner desk. The primary bedroom originally had sliders that opened to an enclosed porch, which has since been converted into the family room and two additional bedrooms — offering extra space and layout options to fit your needs. There’s a living room with a built-in Murphy bed, plus an open dining room adjacent to the family room. All window treatments convey except the rods and blackout curtains in the primary bedroom. A 12x24 shed (permitted) conveys, along with the gazebo and shade covers. The 1-car garage has a storage room at the back and the garage itself houses the laundry hookups plus a utility sink. While buyers should plan for unfinished projects — this home is ready for your updates. A carport is situated on an easement and was grandfathered in by the previous owner many years ago, per Seller, as well as plumbing/sewer line replacement from the house to the street. Outdoors, the left side of the property (Lot 33) is where the home sits and has approximately 115' of freshwater canal frontage to the east; the right side (Lot 34) is the adjoining vacant lot and has approximately 148' of canal frontage, providing extra storage, privacy, or room for toys and garden projects. Both lots are combined under one deed (property records show a total of 13,534 sq ft). The yard features fruit trees that have not yet began producing. A wood fence partially encloses the vacant lot side to keep storage neat and tidy (no gate, not fully fenced in). Property includes a manual crank boat davit (condition and lift capacity unknown), a small wood observation deck (added 1996, condition not warranted), and a seawall estimated at 50 years old, constructed of railway ties — also not warranted or guaranteed. The canal supports shallow-draft recreational boating typical for Lake Tarpon. Acceptable boat types may include pontoons, small flats boats, skiffs, Jon boats, and kayaks. Updates, per the Seller, include a metal flat roof (maybe 4 years old?), carport roof reshingled in 2025, some double-pane windows installed in 2011, a Rheem water heater (2018), and a 200 amp electric panel (date of upgrade unknown). The Seller let us know that the property is on well water; the septic tank was reportedly removed or filled by a previous owner many years ago when they converted to public sewer. Two bedrooms were added from an enclosed porch area — you step down into these rooms. Bedroom 2 at the front includes the start of what was to be a walk-in closet from an enclosed porch. Enjoy Old Florida charm, boat-friendly lifestyle, mature landscaping, and fruit trees in one of Palm Harbor’s beloved waterfront communities. Bring your vision and make this classic canal-front gem your own! The property has cameras with audio/video capability (do not convey).
