  • Description
    Set on a rare 1.75 acre double lot just minutes from downtown Palm Harbor, this secluded log cabin estate offers privacy, flexibility, and character. Enter through a stone paved drive framed by a jasmine covered pergola, custom stone pillars, and a handcrafted log cabin mailbox, and the property immediately reveals itself as a private retreat wrapped in mature landscaping. The main residence features a 3 bedroom, 3 bath layout, thoughtfully designed for both everyday living and flexibility. The upper level includes two generously sized primary style bedrooms, each with its own private ensuite bath, offering ideal separation for guests or multigenerational living. The main level flows naturally between the living, dining, and kitchen spaces, creating a comfortable, connected gathering hub. Throughout the main home, natural pine floors, solid pine doors, and exposed wood beam ceilings add warmth and architectural integrity, reinforcing the authenticity of the log construction. Wood plantation shutters and double pane hurricane rated windows enhance both character and efficiency. The main house is topped with a tin roof, a distinctive architectural element that adds durability and timeless appeal. The fully updated kitchen blends rustic materials with modern functionality, featuring updated appliances, a walk in pantry, and a layout that remains connected to the homes primary living spaces. A stone faced island with a granite countertop anchors the room, complemented by a stone backsplash that adds texture and depth while reinforcing the homes natural material palette. Complementing the main residence is a detached 1 bedroom guest house, offering exceptional versatility for extended family, guests, rental income, or creative use. The property is zoned multifamily and not subject to HOA restrictions, providing rare flexibility this close to town. Updates include new 2023 Bosch and Trane A/C systems and a whole house water filtration system serving the property. Outdoor and landscape lighting enhances walkways, stone features, and gathering spaces after sunset. The grounds are a destination in themselves. A stone paved driveway and expansive parking pads provide ample space for multiple vehicles and guests. A 2.5 car garage with an electric opener and a built in workbench provides storage, workspace, and space for hobbies and projects. Mature palms, plumeria, pine trees, and jasmine create a dense canopy that naturally keeps the property 810 degrees cooler, enhancing comfort year round. Outdoor living is woven throughout the landscape with a fire pit, a horseshoe pit with a spotlight, a woodland swing, and multiple seating areas designed for both quiet enjoyment and entertaining. Additional features include a wood shed with a roof and floor, a generous side yard with room for a pool, and railroad style fencing with custom stone pillars featuring original artwork. All of this privacy and craftsmanship is paired with the rare convenience of being minutes to shopping, dining, and everyday conveniences, creating a truly distinctive offering that blends nature, flexibility, and location. This is more than a homeit is a private residential estate defined by craftsmanship, versatility, and a true sense of place.
