This is home. Only once you settle in poolside you won’t know whether you’re in Southampton or South Tampa. This residence was tastefully re-imagined and expanded upon in 2014 with an abundance of improvements. An inviting brick paved driveway now leads its owners to an expansive front porch featuring craftsman bungalow columns and ornate shake siding. The foyer now fittingly greets guests with a formal dining room. A custom designed granite wet bar and is flanked by a front facing guest room (#4) which can serve as a home office or play room. The former living room is now a spacious owner’s retreat, including a wood burning fireplace, newly appointed master bathroom & large walk in closet. The split floor plan comfortably positions guest rooms 2 & 3 to the north side of the home. They share a full bathroom featuring vintage wainscoting and a cast iron claw-foot soaker tub. The rear portion of the home features a 700 sf open concept addition (2014) uniting a contemporary kitchen (white shaker cabinets, granite tops, large center island, SS appliances) with a cozy family room. This grand space also offers a laundry room and powder room and is adorned with hand scraped hardwood flooring and sun drenched with natural light from 2 sets of glass french doors. These doors lead you to the picture perfect, all season, outdoor oasis highlighted by a sparkling blue saltwater pool and poolside pergola (covered) pre-wired for the big screen. Just imagine game day with the fellas, grilling seasoned steaks and never missing a play. Or the kids hosting a summer pool party followed by movie night under the stars. The newly sodded lawn is lush green and includes a new irrigation system (June 2020). The home site is centrally located on one of the highly sought after circles of Belmar Shores in South Tampa, offering less traffic and more safety for the entire family. Home to (3) A-rated schools (Mabry/Coleman/Plant) and surrounded by the best of South Tampa retail, restaurants, gyms & entertainment venues. Welcome, this is home.
