Nestled along the peaceful shores of Lake Jackson, this beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home offers the perfect blend of rustic serenity and refined living. The main house and two additional versatile buildings make this unique property is a rare gem for those seeking privacy, nature, and space to breathe. From the moment you pass through the iron gate and private entrance, you’ll feel like you’ve arrived at your own secluded retreat. The expansive grounds are rich with mature trees, vibrant wildlife—from cranes and rabbits to turtles and songbirds—and breathtaking cypress trees that frame the lake with a sense of tranquility and timeless beauty. The main house welcomes you with an open, airy layout featuring tile floors throughout and warm bamboo floors in each bedroom. The kitchen sits at the heart of the home, gracefully connecting the living and dining areas to create a perfect gathering space for friends and family. The thoughtful split-plan design offers a private master suite on one side, while two spacious bedrooms and a central powder bath occupy the other. Step outside and find even more to love. An expansive deck stretches along the lakefront, ideal for quiet mornings, sunset gatherings, or weekend entertaining. A charming office with picture-perfect lake views is the ultimate work-from-home oasis. Need even more space? A bright studio with soaring vaulted ceilings and two additional toilets is ready to become your dream man cave, playroom, or creative studio. Whether you’re enjoying coffee on the front porch, hosting dinner by the water, or simply soaking in the peace of your backyard sanctuary, this home is an invitation to live fully and rest deeply. Located in the countryside charm of Odessa, yet just a short drive to Tampa International Airport, Gulf Coast beaches, and the quaint towns of Safety Harbor, Tarpon Springs, and Dunedin, you truly get the best of both worlds. The price reflects the value of the main home on a beautiful lakefront, the land, and unbeatable location. If you’ve been searching for a lakefront home with soul, space, and the perfect mix of nature and convenience—this is the one. Welcome home.

Over an acre of pristine Lakefront Property on unspoiled Lake Jackson with easy access to Citrus Park Mall, Gulf Beaches and TIA. Wrought iron fence and gate on Boy Scout Rd with fencing on both sides opens to a panoramic view and access to 173 ft of private lake frontage. Although there is a 3 bedroom home currently on the property, previously rented for several years, the property cries out for a new/ modern structure. See examples of new construction directly across the street. Picture a compound with all the amenities including pool, multi car garage, room for boats and R/Vs and home(s) for several generations.
