An exquisite Mediterranean Revival-style home inspired by a villa in Italy seldom comes available in South Tampa. This unique home has been meticulously taken care of and beautifully renovated to improve the home’s indoor and outdoor living areas, while carefully preserving the Italianate architectural style and character that make this a truly exceptional property. Upon entering the home, you are welcomed by a stunning ten-foot arched door beautifully adorned by custom ironwork. This door leads you through a grand foyer with marble floors that create a step down into the formal living room centered around a grand fireplace, vaulted ceilings, a large round window that fills the room with natural light, and a pair of French doors that lead out to the courtyard spanning the center of the home. The living room is the heart of the home where the formal dining room and office flow. Steps away is a spectacular chef’s kitchen that features exquisite custom cabinetry and handsome stone countertops. You will love the kitchen’s dry bar with built-in china cabinet in addition to a Thermador gas stove top, stainless steel wall oven, a counter depth refrigerator, and paneled dishwasher. Off the kitchen, you will find a well-appointed laundry room that is large enough to serve as a butler's pantry, craft room or small gym. Whether it's the start of your day or near the end, the immense owner’s suite features a spacious sitting room overlooking the pool and courtyard. Included is a luxurious bathroom suite complete with two walk-in closets, and fabulous custom antique furniture vanity with a stone countertop converted to double sinks and walk-in shower. An enchanting garden tub and light-filled glass block window is the focal point of the room. Around the corner from the primary bedroom is a luxurious guest suite that is perfect for family and friends. The third bedroom is located off the family room and adjacent to the third bathroom which also may be accessed from the pool area. The home is centered around a courtyard that is an entertainer’s dream come true with an oasis-style heated pool and dramatic fountain. Outdoor entertaining is ideal with the impressive outdoor kitchen equipped with a built-in gas grill, covered seating area, and lush tropical landscaping secluded under the large birdcage enclosure. This property has an oversized two-car garage and a private rear driveway with room for additional parking with an automatic gate enclosure. All of this is located one block from the renowned Bayshore Boulevard on Tampa Bay. This home is close to everything this vibrant city has to offer: world-class dining, waterfront parks, and so much more! Make an appointment today to see this one-of-a-kind home.
