Live the Lake Life in the Heart of Lutz – Where Nostalgia Meets Modern Comfort
Tucked away on a quiet canal with direct access to ski-sized Lake Keene, this meticulously maintained, one-owner home offers a rare blend of privacy, community, and timeless Florida charm. Welcome to a lifestyle where weekend boat rides, evening paddleboard sessions, and coffee on the oversized screened lanai become your new normal.
Set on a generous lot with no CDD fees and just a $55/year optional HOA, this custom-built 4-bed, 2 full + 2 half bath home is the kind of opportunity that rarely comes available in beloved “Mayberry” Lutz.
From the paver driveway to the ALCOA Country Manor aluminum shake roof, every inch has been cared for with pride. Inside, discover a warm blend of granite countertops, solid hardwood cabinetry, plantation shutters, and thoughtful upgrades—like a cozy brick-hearth fireplace, coffee bar, and a massive walk-in pantry that makes everyday living feel extraordinary.
Flexibility abounds with multiple living and entertaining spaces, including a bonus room perfect for a home office, a formal dining room with French doors that open to the lanai for those lake days that turn into evening gatherings under the stars.
Unique highlights include:

• Direct canal access with private boat basin and seawall
• Optional community boat ramp access to Lake Keene
• Updated kitchen and baths with granite, hardwood, and GE appliances
• Crown molding, built-ins, insulated windows, and hardwood floors
• Multiple storage and workspace areas – even the garage is ready to perform

Located just minutes to the library, post office, schools, and grocery options, you’re also a quick drive from all that Greater Tampa Bay has to offer—without sacrificing peace, privacy, or space.
This is more than a home. It’s a lifestyle—a throwback to simpler times with all the modern comforts.
