Before the “great room” plan was cool, Mid-Century modern architects introduced homes like this designed with the intention of opening up interior spaces and bringing the outdoors in. This impressive home captures you from the first moment. Sleek lines, walls of glass, vaulted ceilings and an open floor plan are hallmarks of the style that you’ll find here.
The home flows smoothly from its central living area with dramatic ceiling details to a dining area with built-in seating on one side, and casual space on the other with a wall of French doors opening to the pool area.
The kitchen is a show-stopper, with handsome granite counters and rich wood cabinetry accented
by stainless steel. It’s a functional space, with dual islands, tons of counter and storage space, a built-in desk area and two separate casual dining counters.
The Master suite and a guest bedroom are on one side of the house, with a wing added in 2013
on the opposite side having two bedrooms and a full bath.
Outside, the large pool has a paver deck with several areas to relax – there’s a built-in fire pit and
an outdoor grill area. Around the corner is an outdoor shower, and a detached building that’s got perfect light for an artist’s studio, writer’s retreat or workout space.
You’ll be surprised how private the outdoor space is, with a huge side yard, and rear access for off-street parking. You’ll also enjoy the location, in a desirable mature neighborhood just minutes from
downtown and waterfront parks along Tampa Bay.
