Property Description

Life behind the gates in Ballastone, one of Oakstead's most established enclaves in Land O Lakes. This 4-bedroom, 3-bath, Mediterranean-style home sits on nearly half an acre at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, behind private gates, with 2,573 square feet of single-story living, a 3 car garage with an oversized parking pad. This master-planned, gated community is zoned for Oakstead Elementary, Charles S. Rushe Middle, and Sunlake High School, and puts you close to everything, with the Suncoast Expressway getting you into downtown Tampa in under 20 minutes and Wiregrass Mall and Tampa Premium Outlets just around the corner. Whether you've called Land O Lakes home for years or you're relocating to the Tampa Bay area for the first time, this is a neighborhood that makes settling in easy. The layout is move-in ready: an open-concept kitchen and family room, a dedicated den for remote work, a three-way split bedroom plan for privacy, and a primary suite with two closets, a soaking tub, and a separate walk-in shower. Recent updates take the guesswork out of buying from a distance: new A/C (2022), a new dishwasher (2025), whole-house central vacuum, a Vivint security system, and a whole-house water softener are all already in place. A triple-slider opens onto a screened, L-shaped lanai and an oversized side yard, giving you outdoor space immediately, without waiting on landscaping or renovations. Oakstead's amenities are resort-level: a 165,000-gallon saltwater pool with waterslide, three tennis courts, a fitness center, and a covered playground, all just steps away. For a family relocating and starting fresh, this is a community, and a home, that's ready before you even unpack.
