Reading the numbers

Four bedrooms in 5,201 sq ft is an unusual shape for this street, where the houses are built around five. It means 1,300 sq ft per bedroom — more than twice the 630 sq ft per bedroom at 8929. The extra floor area is in shared rooms, not sleeping rooms.

Combined with three baths, this is the configuration people describe as formal: separate living and family rooms, a dining room, and a large primary suite, with two secondary bedrooms sharing the third bath. It is also the configuration most likely to be re-planned on a renovation, since the bedroom count can grow without adding square footage.

Reading the frontage

Lakefront is a mapped-polygon flag against Lake Tibet Butler: the parcel reaches the water. No shoreline length, dock, seawall or lift is recorded.

Bay Hill Section 4 fronts the main body of Lake Tibet Butler. Access to the rest of the Butler Chain from here runs through the lake system itself, not through a canal, which is the distinction worth making against the canal parcels farther east on Bayshore Dr.

What this page is not

  • It is not a listing. Nothing here says the property is for sale.
  • It is not an appraisal. Just value is the county's assessment figure for its own tax year.
  • It does not confirm a pool or a dock, neither of which is recorded here.
