Property Description
Discover the finest of WestWinds in Tarpon Springs with this pristine, beautifully upgraded home, offering a perfect blend of privacy, convenience, and coastal charm just five minutes from the beach & completely FURNISHED & MOVE-IN READY! Nestled against 100+ acres of conservation land, this residence provides a tranquil retreat with no rear neighbors, making it ideal for those seeking peace and seclusion. Unlike typical HOA communities, this home stands out as a private sanctuary while remaining close to top dining, shopping, and recreational activities. Recently updated with a new roof in February 2024, this home has been meticulously maintained and enhanced with numerous upgrades. The pool cage was rescreened and painted in June 2023, while the pool deck was refinished in November 2023, ensuring a pristine outdoor retreat. The driveway and sidewalks were stained and sealed in spring 2024, and the home’s exterior was freshly painted in June 2024, complementing the interior and garage painting completed in 2024 and 2025. A new air conditioning condenser was installed in March 2023, providing optimal climate control for year-round comfort. Inside, the thoughtfully designed kitchen features a new reverse osmosis water filtration system installed in 2023, along with a new refrigerator from spring 2023. The laundry room has been updated with a new LG washer and dryer from 2023 and a new vanity with a stainless steel sink added in May 2024. Additional storage was incorporated in fall 2023, maximizing functionality throughout the home. The open-concept living and dining areas are spacious and filled with natural light, making them perfect for entertaining or everyday comfort. Both bedrooms feature walk-in closets and generous storage, while the modern bathrooms are beautifully appointed with stone surfaces and premium finishes. A tankless gas water heater ensures continuous hot water, and the new pool cage screens with "Florida Glass" panels enhance the lanai’s covered area, allowing natural light while providing added comfort. The outdoor space is equally impressive, with a large backyard and side yard providing ample room for gatherings, sports, and sunbathing. A charming circular travertine patio beneath a majestic oak tree in the front yard offers a peaceful setting for morning coffee or evening relaxation. The surrounding area is home to diverse wildlife, including sand cranes, egrets, great storks, and even the occasional pink flamingo. Situated on an elevated lot, this home has never experienced flooding, offering an added layer of security and peace of mind. With an HOA fee of just $188 monthly, residents enjoy one of the most affordable rates in the county, covering full lawn care, including mowing, edging, treatment, and irrigation services. The home is also steps away from the 45-mile-long Pinellas Trail, which extends to St. Petersburg and features numerous parks and dining options along the way. Nearby, the renowned Tarpon Springs Sponge Docks provide opportunities for boating, waterfront dining, and shopping. Minutes away, Sunset Beach, Fred Howard Park, and Honeymoon Island offer some of the best coastal experiences in the area. Combining comfort, privacy, and convenience, this exceptional home is a rare find in one of Tarpon Springs’ most sought-after communities. Don't miss the opportunity to make it yours!
