Property Overview
Elevation is the true "key" to turnkey living at 18D Franklin Court South.
This exceptional elevated end-unit seamlessly blends Mediterranean-inspired elegance with modern design, offering serene lake views and unmatched peace of mind. Boating enthusiasts will appreciate the rare opportunity to purchase two private, owner-owned deep water slips—each equipped with high-capacity lifts (14K and 20K).
Inside, the 2,574-square-foot, three-bedroom, 2.5-bath residence is thoughtfully designed with dramatic vaulted ceilings, an open-concept layout, and premium finishes throughout. The chef’s kitchen is a true showpiece—equipped with high-end appliances, sleek Cambria countertops, elegant pendant lighting, natural gas cooking, and an oversized walk-in pantry.
Custom upgrades continue throughout the home, including a covered lanai for year-round outdoor enjoyment, an integrated surround-sound system, remote-control blinds, a built-in bar with wine refrigerator, and a charming writing nook—all contributing to the home’s elevated sophistication.
The spacious owner’s suite serves as a peaceful retreat, complete with custom walk-in closets and a spa-inspired bath featuring dual vanities, a tiled walk-in shower, and a luxurious soaking tub.
Designed with both convenience and peace of mind in mind, all living areas are located on a single level and accessed via a private elevator from the expansive, nearly 2,500-square-foot garage. This five-car garage is a true dream for automotive enthusiasts, featuring durable epoxy flooring and a striking custom hexagon lighting system—perfectly suited for a workshop, home gym, or game room.
Built to FORTIFIED Gold™ standards—the highest designation awarded by the Insurance Institute for Business & Home Safety (IBHS)—this home offers unmatched structural resilience. It exceeds standard building codes with impact- and pressure-rated windows, sliding glass doors, entryways, and garage doors. Engineered roof-to-wall, story-to-story, and wall-to-foundation connections form a unified, reinforced structure designed for maximum protection. For added peace of mind, a whole-house 22-kilowatt Generac natural gas generator ensures continuous power when it matters most.
Marina Bay offers a true resort-style lifestyle with amenities that include two pools, two spas, a well-equipped fitness center, a clubhouse, and a fishing pier. Nestled along nearly 2,000 feet of Intracoastal shoreline on scenic Boca Ciega Bay, this pet-friendly community is just minutes from world-renowned beaches, golf courses, tennis, and pickleball. Outdoor enthusiasts will love direct access to the 60-mile Pinellas Trail, providing uninterrupted bike routes to Fort De Soto Park and St. Pete Beach—right from your doorstep.
According to the owner, the home sustained no damage during hurricanes Helene and Milton—further testament to its resilient construction.
