Property Description

ATTENTION CASH INVESTORS, FLIPPERS & CONTRACTORS!! THIS HOME IS FOR YOU!! This once LOVELY GEM at 8136 Brighton Dr, Port Richey, FL in the WATERFRONT COMMUNITY of HARBOR ISLES features 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, 2-car garage on an OVERSIZED LOT with 13,273sqft lot or .30 acre. Have you ever wanted to live surrounded by MILLION DOLLAR properties but pay MUCH less? Here is your RARE OPPORTUNITY to purchase this CANAL-FRONT home with DIRECT ACCESS to the GULF OF MEXICO. Key exterior features are concrete seawall with water & electric capabilities at the former dock (previous dock was removed due to condition), davits, HUGE inground pool with freeform shape & large patio area PERFECT for hosting parties with MAJESTIC pine trees providing shade. You'll LOVE the MASSIVE semi-circular concrete driveway fitting multiple vehicles. Need more space for your boat, RV or jet skis? No problem! There is an additional double-wide parking pad by the garage as well as another oversized driveway. The architecture of this house is GORGEOUS with stone wall construction & a roof that looks to be in very good shape. The GRAND front entrance feels like you are entering a RESORT LODGE featuring double doors, hexagonal tiled floor, wood plank ceiling on the covered porch & STATELY columns. Once inside, the long foyer with hall closet connects the different rooms of the house. The OPEN FLOOR PLAN consists of the foyer, kitchen, dinette, dining, living & Florida rooms. The SPACIOUS kitchen has a walk-in pantry, mosaic tile backsplash, 2 breakfast bars & lots of cabinets. The living room has VAULTED ceilings with MAGNIFICENT wood beams as well as a WOOD BURNING FIREPLACE with stone wall & wooden mantle. The master bedroom can easily accommodate king-size furniture, has a walk-in closet of approximate dimensions 7'x6' & en suite bathroom. The master bathroom with pocket door for added privacy looks like it got its style from the Brady Bunch with a sunken-in shower, vintage tiles & L-shaped counter with cabinet storage. In this split bedroom plan, the other 2 bedrooms are located on the opposite wing of the home. About equivalent in size, these bedrooms can also fit king size furniture. The front bedroom features a GIGANTIC walk-in closet of approximate dimensions 11'x6.5'. The nearby REMODELED bathroom is definitely the most updated room of the house. This PRETTY bathroom consists of LOVELY tiled floors in a diagonal pattern with square inserts, wood cabinet with granite counter, satin nickel faucet, newer toilet, linen closet & tub/shower combo with sliding glass doors. There is a 3rd full bathroom with shower, sink & toilet located off the Florida room. The generous-sized laundry room with utility sink & cabinet/counter ideal as a folding station is off the Florida room. Tax records indicate this is a 5-bed house. It can very easily be converted back into 5 bedrooms by creating Bed#4 out of the spa room which is off the master bedroom & Bed#5 can be created by the 3rd bath using space from the 28' long Florida/Bonus room. By reconfiguring the layout, this home can be turned into having an IN-LAW SUITE with its own private entrance from the yard. The condition of the home is reflected in the price. There is a LOT OF SWEAT EQUITY IN THIS HOUSE! Can you transform it to an ELEGANT BEAUTY? The location is SUPERB near waterfront activities, restaurants, shopping, schools, places of worship, medical plazas, beaches & tourist attractions. MAKE THIS YOUR FUTURE HOME!
