Designed to live in harmony with its natural surroundings, this Mid-Century Florida Contemporary residence blends timeless architectural character with privacy, tranquility, and everyday convenience—just minutes from vibrant Downtown Dunedin, world-famous Honeymoon Island State Park, and the pristine shores of Caladesi Island. Surrounded by mature oak canopy, towering palms, and lush native Florida landscaping, the home sits gracefully within a certified wildlife habitat, creating a peaceful, park-like setting seldom found this close to the Gulf Coast.

Inside, you'll discover expansive living and dining areas, a welcoming family room anchored by a classic fireplace, and a well-appointed chef's kitchen featuring shaker-style cabinetry, granite countertops, an oversized center island, and abundant custom storage—ideal for both daily family living and elegant entertaining. Upstairs, the private primary suite opens to a serene balcony overlooking the tree-lined grounds, while additional bedrooms offer flexible space for guests, multigenerational living, work-from-home needs, or creative pursuits. A detached air-conditioned studio dramatically enhances the property's versatility, delivering the perfect setting for a home office, artist's studio, yoga or fitness space, or future guest quarters or in-law suite. Meaningful capital improvements provide true peace of mind, including a 2021 roof, impact-rated hurricane windows and doors, a pavered driveway, and an oversized two-car garage, all reflecting years of careful stewardship. Outdoors is where this property truly shines: meandering garden paths wind through shaded groves and mature trees, while an outdoor kitchen, grilling area, and gazebo create inviting spaces for gathering beneath the oak canopy—this is a home designed not just to be lived in, but to be experienced.
