If you have been waiting for the one that checks every box, this is it. Tucked into a quiet cul-de-sac in the Seacrest neighborhood of MiraBay, this beautifully maintained Tidewater villa sits on one of the most coveted lots in the entire community. Front and back waterfront views, wide separation between neighbors, an extra-long driveway, and no through traffic create the kind of peaceful setting that is genuinely rare in a maintenance-free villa community. The back screened lanai overlooks the largest pond in Seacrest, with additional views of a canal, a conservation strip, and one of MiraBay's signature walking trails. The front lanai gives you a second outdoor living space to enjoy the morning or the evening breeze. Both lanais are fitted with pull-down plantation shutters and shade blinds for privacy and shade. whenever you want them. CDD IS INCLUDED IN THE PROPERTY TAX
Inside, the Tidewater floor plan delivers a bright, open feel with a layout that makes sense for everyday living and easy entertaining. Real Brazilian cherry hardwood flows through every bedroom, tile covers the main living areas, and there is no carpet anywhere in the home. The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated with newer gas appliances, light and bright quartz countertops, under-cabinet lighting, a coordinating backsplash, a generous pantry, and a charming café-style breakfast nook with built-in bench seating. The primary bedroom features a tray ceiling and is positioned on a split floor plan, giving guests their own side of the home and giving you your own retreat. Both bathrooms have been updated with new cabinetry, high-end quartz counters, and upgraded glass shower doors. The den at the back of the home opens through French doors to peaceful canal views and works beautifully as a home office, bedroom, hobby room, or reading space. Built-in features in the living room, laundry room, and secondary bedroom add storage without sacrificing style. The garage includes overhead storage racks for seasonal items and extras.
This home has been exceptionally well cared for, with every major system addressed in recent years. Updates include a new roof in 2024, new AC in 2024, new water heater in 2024, new interior paint, new exterior paint, and a whole-house surge protector. The seller has also invested in upgraded landscaping with flowering shrubs and large foxtail palms that make this home stand out from the street.
One detail worth highlighting for buyers considering villa living: the shared wall in this home is built with sound-reducing construction that continues fully through the attic. This is not standard, and it makes a meaningful difference in day-to-day privacy.
The low HOA covers exterior irrigation, landscaping, lawn care, periodic exterior painting, and reserves for future roof replacement. You get the MiraBay lifestyle without the maintenance burden.

Residents enjoy a resort-style pool, 24-hour fitness center, clubhouse, café, tennis courts, pickleball courts, basketball courts, playgrounds, parks, and miles of walking trails. Kayak and paddleboard access, a community boat lift, and a full calendar of social events and activities round out a lifestyle that is hard to replicate anywhere else on the South Shore.
