Offering exceptional privacy and an impressive setup for boating, the property features multiple boat lifts with no bridges to the Gulf and Anclote Key just a short boat ride away. Its high-elevation (no flood insurance required x-500 zone) setting is another important distinction—the home experienced no flooding from Hurricane Helene.

Just minutes from the historic Tarpon Springs Sponge Docks and a short boat ride to Anclote Key, this is a rare opportunity to own a private waterfront estate combining nearly half an acre, exceptional boating, extensive updates and the exclusivity of one of Tarpon Springs’ most distinctive island neighborhoods.
