Nestled in the highly sought-after gated community of Placido Bayou, this exquisite waterfront home offers the perfect blend of luxury, privacy, peacefulness, and convenience. Located on a quiet cul-de-sac in the Estates section, this fully updated Arthur Rutenberg-built block home boasts 90’ of waterfront with a wide canal, private dock and direct access to Tampa Bay. A pond view along the side of the home makes this one of the most unique lots in Placido Bayou with water views on two sides. Meticulously updated, this 5-bedroom home sits high and dry with 9' elevation and features impact windows and doors that allow natural light to flood the interior.

You’ll feel like you are staying in a luxury hotel from the primary bedroom with sliding glass doors to the view and pool, a magazine-worthy 2023-updated bath, and built-in California Closet storage. Another bedroom is situated off the primary suite, ideal for your daily yoga sessions, painting studio, writing retreat or nursery. The day is never done without a dip in the saltwater pool, resurfaced in 2016. It includes a sun shelf, deep end seating, and a heavy-duty pet screen along the bottom of the cage. With water on two sides and preserve beyond, this private lot is a nature lover's dream!
