$749,000 3 bedrooms | 2 full baths | 1,572 square feet | 65+ ft on the canal | Shagos Bay MLS TB8543555
The reason to see 918 Shagos Drive is in the backyard. There are more than 65 feet of deep-water saltwater canal, a replaced dock with a 10,000-pound lift, and no bridges between you and Tampa Bay. Then a heated pool, a covered outdoor kitchen and a west-facing porch for the sunset.
It is a 3-bedroom, 2-bath, 1,572-square-foot block home on one level, with a new metal roof, no HOA, no CDD, and short-term renting allowed.
The water: 65+ feet, a 10,000 lb lift, no bridges
The home is on the south channel of Shagos Bay, on a deep-water saltwater canal with no bridges between the dock and Tampa Bay. The dock and the lift have both been replaced. The back of the house faces west, and the seller has enjoyed watching dolphins and manatees come through.
- More than 65 feet of deep-water canal frontage
- Private dock, replaced
- 10,000-pound boat lift, replaced
- No bridges to Tampa Bay
- West-facing backyard for sunsets
Lifts are rated by weight, not length. A 10,000-pound lift fits a lot of center consoles and bay boats, but we will check your boat’s loaded weight (fuel, engines and gear) against it, and look at depth at low tide.
Elevation: about 12 feet, never flooded
The seller reports the home sits about 12 feet above sea level and has never flooded. It is still in flood zone AE, so a lender will require flood insurance, but elevation is the biggest factor in the premium. Ask for the elevation certificate and get a quote early.
The pool and outdoor kitchen
Three sliding glass doors open to a screened patio of about 24 by 33 feet with a heated gunite pool. The pool has been replastered and has a color LED light, and the pool heater is about two years old. The pool cage, pavers and covered outdoor kitchen have all been replaced. There is an outside bath entrance, a fire pit and updated landscaping.
Inside
This is an all-block home with 1,572 square feet on one level and some personality: cathedral and high ceilings, skylights and architectural windows. The living and dining spaces are open to each other and to the pool.
The renovated kitchen has stone counters, a convection oven, a wine refrigerator and room to eat. Both bathrooms have been updated. The primary bedroom has a walk-in closet and private bath, and two more bedrooms share the second full bath.
