9914 ALAVISTA DRIVE, MLS# – TB8430799

Florida Living at Its Best! This fully remodeled (2002) 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom elevated stilt home sits at the end of a quiet street on a large waterfront lot, where you can enjoy incredible sunrise and sunset views and frequent visits from dolphins and manatees. Nestled on a canal of the Alafia River with direct access to the Gulf, this home offers the perfect blend of privacy, space, and true waterfront living.

Upstairs, the open floor plan highlights an expansive living room seamlessly connected to the kitchen and dining areas. The spacious kitchen features a breakfast bar, abundant cabinet storage, and plenty of room to cook and entertain. A split-bedroom layout provides privacy, while the primary suite impresses with a spa-like en suite complete with dual vanities, a walk-in shower, and a large custom walk-in closet. Double doors lead from the suite to the wraparound deck, where you can take in stunning water views. Beautiful wood flooring extends throughout most of the home, and the laundry room is thoughtfully designed with built-ins for extra storage.

Outdoor living is at the heart of this property. The second-floor screened porch and expansive wraparound deck are perfect for soaking in the views, while the ground level offers a covered tiki bar and spacious entertaining area. Boating enthusiasts will love the private covered dock with a 12,000-pound boat lift and 1,000-pound jet ski lift, along with plenty of room for kayaks, paddleboards, and RV parking—all tucked securely behind a private electric gate. Covered parking for three vehicles adds to the convenience.

Energy-efficient and built to last, the home is fully solar powered with updated panels (2023) and an inverter under warranty through 2026. Additional upgrades include a 50-year galvanized standing seam metal roof, hurricane shutters, professional landscaping, and custom exterior lighting.

By boat, you’re just minutes from the open bay, popular waterfront restaurants, and downtown Tampa. By car, you’ll have easy access to US-301, the Crosstown Expressway, and I-75. Whether as a full-time residence, vacation retreat, or income-producing Airbnb, this home delivers the perfect mix of comfort, convenience, and lifestyle.
