There’s a rich Mediterranean flair to this manse built by Mercedes Homes and nestled in the gated community of Toulon. Six bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms and a 3-car garage sit on a private and oversized 0.6391-acre lot. A stately iron gate reveals the magnificent courtyard’s herringbone-patterned pavers and barrel-topped portico. The alfresco entertainment center is crowned with a screened lanai and boasts a spectacular pool/spa, an outdoor shower and half bath. Inside, graceful archways provide elegant transitions from room to room. The staircase’s wrought iron-accented railings feature night lighting and reveal the second floor from the elegant family room. A spacious under stair storage area can stow holiday décor. From the pendant lighting to the fitted wine rack, the kitchen shines with gourmet amenities including two built-in ovens, a sleek cooktop, trash compactor, lustrous granite-covered countertops and a large center island with prep sink. A sunny breakfast nook and casual dining bar complete the picture. Currently used as an upstairs living room, the space behind a set of double doors is designed as a media room wired for sound. With access to the balcony it’s the ideal accommodation to watch sporting events and host movie nights. The locations of the bedrooms were thoughtfully planned with the master suite, a secondary bedroom and its full bath on the main floor, with the balance upstairs. Twenty minutes from downtown Tampa, you’ll enjoy the best of both worlds from this stunning retreat.
