About this home
Lakefront Retreat with Private Guest Suite with direct access to Phillippi Creek located in Southgate!
Welcome to a rare opportunity to own private waterfront with access to scenic Phillippi Creek and the Intracoastal Waterway. This exceptional property combines timeless design, modern upgrades, and true Florida indoor-outdoor living—all with no history of hurricane water intrusion. From the moment you arrive, the home’s curb appeal impresses with a circular driveway, paver walkways, additional paver parking pad, mango and avocado trees, and a fully fenced setting surrounded by lush, mature landscape.
Step through stunning French doors with stained glass into a bright, tropical-inspired entry. Inside, the open-concept living space is expansive and inviting, anchored by a gas fireplace and enhanced by updated windows that fill the home with natural light. The chef’s kitchen is both functional and stylish, featuring a curved, stone countertop and bistro-height seating, Murano glass pendants and recessed lighting, a six-burner natural gas cooktop, and stainless steel appliances, including a Bosch dishwasher.
Designed for entertaining, the outdoor living area is truly exceptional. Enjoy an expansive paver patio with a tranquil wall-mounted fountain and a summer kitchen with a gas grill, refrigerator, sink, single gas burner, and an exterior vented commercial-grade hood. The backyard overlooks serene views of Lake Seclusion and the dock. Watch the ducks, herons, egrets, cormorants, and leaping fish.
The primary suite is a private sanctuary—spacious, light-filled, and surrounded by glass sliders opening to the patio with peaceful water views. Features include dual oversized walk-through closets, an elegant ensuite bath with split vanities, granite countertops, a jetted soaking tub on an elevated platform, and a walk-in shower with glass block detail and water closet.
Further highlights in this wing are two more large bedrooms with a shared bathroom, walk-in shower, and pedestal sink.
Another standout feature of this home is the fully equipped mother-in-law suite/home office/artist studio complete with a private entrance and courtyard, separate A/C system, and kitchen with appliances! The suite has a living room/bedroom combo and full bath with new tile shower and linen closet.
Connecting the guest suite with the three bedrooms and two bathrooms is a spacious butlers pantry with full-size refrigerator and wine chiller, as well as washer, dryer, utility sink, and extensive storage.
The oversized attached garage has an updated automatic door opener motor, cabinets, and shelving. In the backyard are the Rinnai tankless gas water heater, well-fed irrigation system, exterior lighting, private outdoor shower, and small storage shed.
This is more than a home—it’s a private retreat offering flexibility, functionality, and exceptional waterfront living plus the option of income producing! It is minutes from downtown, the beach, and shopping without the inconvenience of bridges or seasonal traffic. The highly desirable neighborhood is quiet and stable with mature trees lining the gently curving street. Remarkably, this house has had only three owners—a true sign of how special it is to live there....
