About this home
16606 FOREST PARK DRIVE
Exceptional 3-bedroom, 2-bath home in the heart of one of Lutz's most desirable areas.

The gorgeous, functional updated kitchen includes two-tone soft-close cabinetry, quartz countertops, a new backsplash, stainless steel appliances, stylish hardware, and plenty of storage, including a spacious pantry. The expansive family room features a fully functional wood-burning fireplace with a striking granite hearth, along with a recently serviced chimney and spark arrestor. A separate living area offers flexible space for a second family room or gathering area. Upstairs, you'll find two generously sized bedrooms, including the primary suite with a dressing area and walk-in closet, plus a fully renovated bathroom with a walk-in shower. The third bedroom is tucked away downstairs for privacy and has access to a tastefully updated full bath with a shower/tub combination, making it ideal as a second primary suite, guest room, or home office. The interior also includes a dining area with bay windows and an indoor laundry room with plenty of storage space. Outside, the large, fully fenced backyard offers room for a future pool and plenty of safe space for family and pets to play while you relax or grill on the paved deck. One of Lutz's many clear creeks runs along the property line, adding unexpected charm. A large shed with electricity provides ample space for lawn equipment and power toys. With no HOA or CDD, there is also room to park a boat. The stamped-brick driveway and patio, made with bricks from Ybor City, add a unique touch of Tampa’s history. Enjoy worry-free living with a newer roof (2024), a 2-year-old tankless water heater, a regularly maintained 2018 AC with coils cleaned three months ago, a 2025 water softener, filter, and pressure tank, septic service completed in 2025 including a new gray-water/laundry septic tank, and regular pest control three times a year.

Value check
Is the price right?
The internet’s favorite home-value number comes from a single automated model that has never seen the street, the finishes, or the view — which is why it routinely misses by tens of thousands of dollars. The edgeAI estimate combines multiple independent data sources with our team’s on-the-ground expertise in this exact market.
