    Welcome to a premier Broadwater waterfront sanctuary—where the art of entertaining meets the boater's dream. This meticulously updated one-story residence spans 2,957 square feet of refined living across 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, positioned on an expansive 84 x 140 lot that commands deep-water channel access and easy passage to Boca Ciega Bay and the Gulf. Whether you're launching for an early morning fishing expedition or hosting sunset cocktails, this property has been reimagined for the discerning lifestyle enthusiast. The 2026 kitchen renovation speaks luxury: quartzite countertops and backsplash; Wolf 48-inch dual fuel range with built-in flattop and grill; 48-inch Wolf hood; paneled Subzero refrigerator with separate wine fridge, 30” refrigerator and 24” Freezer; a Miele coffee system with water supply; Cove dishwasher; wet bar with a Scotsman pellet ice maker; and a generous hidden walk-in pantry. That philosophy extends to the full outdoor kitchen featuring a Blaze 36-inch grill and Azure wine fridge, framed by artificial turf, landscape lighting, and a fire pit for evening gatherings. The saltwater, solar-heated Pebble Tec pool and new pool bath complete the resort-style setting. The primary suite welcomes you with a spa-like walk-in shower, its Toto washlet complementing the luxury spa experience, alongside a double walk-in custom closet offering refined storage. Entertainment space abounds with large living room, 2nd sitting area and covered lanai with electronic roll up screens. Two additional bedrooms in the split plan are next to the luxurious updated hall bath. Beyond entertainment, this home is engineered for longevity: updated electrical and plumbing, 2026 laundry remodel, 2025 AC, 2019 roof, 2018 tankless water heater, whole-house water softener and filtration system, and paid-off solar panels offsetting energy costs indefinitely. The seawall updated in 2017 ensures confidence against weather, while the composite dock with 20,000-pound lift features lighting, shore power, fresh water, and a kayak launch platform. This is turnkey waterfront living at its finest—sophisticated, well-appointed, and built for a lifestyle of distinction.
