Welcome to a truly rare offering—one of only 13 homes on White Trout Lake with over 1.5+ acres of land, and the only one currently for sale. Privately gated and situated in Flood Zone X, this 5-bedroom, 4.5-bath lakefront estate spans 1.71 acres with 124 feet of direct frontage on the 78-acre private ski lake. With just 60 homes on White Trout Lake, opportunities like this are few and far between—especially one offering this level of space, privacy, and lifestyle in the heart of Tampa. This is the perfect moment for buyers to secure a home on a private ski lake—just in time for summer on the water. Set deep within the property behind a private gate and stately brick wall, the home offers exceptional seclusion and peace—perfectly positioned at the back of the 1.71-acre lot to maximize privacy and lake views. The main living area has been dramatically opened up—highlighted by the removal of interior beams and the installation of 8’ hurricane-rated sliders that bring in abundant natural light and perfectly frame the stunning lake views from both the kitchen and living areas. The expansive main living room island—outfitted with plumbing and electrical—is perfect for casual meals, family game nights, or gathering with guests while enjoying views of the pool and lake. Interior finishes include real hardwood floors and solid core doors, along with quartz countertops, upgraded light fixtures, and fresh paint throughout. The thoughtfully designed floorplan features two guest bedrooms with private en-suite baths—one of which functions as a true in-law suite with its own private entrance, offering flexibility for multi-generational living or extended guests. The primary suite is a true retreat—complete with pocket sliders that open to the pool and lake, a massive walk-in closet with private access to a spacious elevated deck overlooking the backyard and lake, and a spa-like en-suite bathroom featuring a large walk-in shower. The outdoor living experience is second to none, featuring a private tennis/pickleball court with stadium lighting, a pool, and a dock equipped with an 8,500 lb covered boat lift and floating jet ski dock. The home also features a 50-amp RV hookup, providing added flexibility for hosting guests or accommodating extended travel plans. Additional highlights include a formal dining room, open-concept living areas, a 2-car garage, and exceptional storage space both inside and in the attic. With over $575,000 in recent improvements, this one-of-a-kind lakefront estate offers the rare opportunity to enjoy space, privacy, and lifestyle.
