Privacy plus, this large lakefront property is located at the end of a quiet dead-end street. With 78 ft. of lakefront footage on the largest lake in Northwest Hillsborough County, it offers beautiful views and access for all water sports on Lake Keystone's 417 acres. Over half an acre of land affords plenty of room to expand and still take full advantage of this great wooded location, allowing plenty of privacy and very little noise.
The quiet beauty of Lake Keystone can be viewed from every room of the main house. The large lot is home to such beautiful mature trees as Golden Raintree, orchid, palms, orange, lemon and grapefruit which insulate the house from the neighbors, creating the feeling of a serene retreat.
The community of homes that surround the 417 acres of Lake Keystone are comprised of some of the most upscale residences in the Tampa Bay area. Originally back in the 1940s and '50s, when some of the first houses appeared around the lake, most were smaller weekend getaway cottages and winter retreats for snowbirds. As Tampa and the surrounding area have grown in the decades since, more people have made this area their year-round home, and the surrounding landscape has changed accordingly. The lake is now home to many sports celebrities, entrepreneurs, doctors and other professionals with large mansions replacing the original houses that ringed the lake.
The soaring cathedral ceiling in the living room highlights an exceptionally large brick fireplace and complements original wood beams. A large sunroom off the living room adds even more space for lounging and entertaining, and a marble pass-through provides convenient access to the dining room.
The dining area and kitchen are linked by an open counter. Ample storage is available in an adjacent pantry as well as another small room which leads out to the enclosed porch off the second bedroom. The bedroom itself features ceiling fan, overhead storage above the closet and a sliding glass door for access to the sunroom and another beautiful view of the lake.
A Zen rock garden, with access from the second bedroom porch, is viewable from both the hall bath and the master bath. The master bath combines contemporary treatments and original mid-century elements to produce a unique, elegant escape which overlooks the Zen garden and the backyard. The master bedroom features ceiling fan with remote, overhead storage compartments and his and hers closets, as well as yet another magnifcent view of the lake through the sliding glass door access and adjacent porch.
2 bedrooms and 2 baths in main house (approx. 1500 sq. ft.), with sunrooms across the back length facing the lake, affording an exquisite view from every room of the home.
Refrigerator, stove, sink and 1/2 bath in 500+ sq. ft. guest house located in front of main house.
