Residential Land for Sale in Tampa, Florida

Located on the private Byrd Lake, shared in part with Avila--one of Tampa's most exclusive neighborhoods--this rare lakefront parcel is an opportunity that has not surfaced in many years. Awake each morning to breathtaking sunrise views over this ~18-acre freshwater retreat, reaching depths of up to 16 feet, with no public access to disturb the quiet serenity. The property sits more than 400 feet off the public road, with a 25-foot-wide, 400-foot-long private driveway that opens to a secluded world of nature, where majestic bald cypress, centuries-old oaks draped in Spanish moss, and stately pines frame a setting of unparalleled tranquility. A gate at the driveway entrance ensures complete privacy, with the home site entirely invisible from the road.

Here, you'll feel worlds away, yet remain just 20 minutes from Downtown Tampa, Water Street, and Tampa International Airport. Most of the land lies in Flood Zone X, with only minimal fringe at the water's edge, while county setbacks protect the shoreline and docks often qualify for streamlined DEP self-certification. This expansive lot offers a rare canvas for a custom estate where modern luxury meets natural beauty--perfect for terraces, infinity-edge pools, or glass-walled living that blends indoors and out. More than just land, this is an invitation to create a legacy estate defined by privacy, prestige, and timeless elegance.
