***Multiple Offers Received*** Offer Deadline: 3/13 at 5pm. Live the true Florida lifestyle in this Key West inspired custom-built home with it's own dock on the Alafia River! Head out to the Gulf of Mexico or just hang out on one of the many sandy islands that dot the Alafia River and Tampa Bay. This high-end construction built by TB Homes is set in your own gated oasis just 10 miles from Downtown Tampa and is close to I-75 and tons of shopping and restaurants. In addition to your own dock on the Alafia River, this dream home also sits on a 4-acre spring fed lake that is stocked with Bass, so you can also fish from your own backyard. The resort-style backyard is made for entertaining or just relaxing. It is completely enclosed with vinyl fencing and a masonry wall that will keep your kids and pets safe from venturing down to the lake. Gorgeous slate pavers surround the heated saltwater pool and spa, and you can rinse off in the private outdoor shower with hot water from one of the home's two tankless gas water heaters. There is plenty of space to get relief from the heat as well with a huge, covered lanai that has powered retractable screens and features a commercial grade outdoor kitchen complete with a Twin Eagles built in gas grill and a Kamado Joe ceramic grill/smoker. There is also an organic garden with a beautiful pergola and koi pond. The main kitchen inside the home is a chef's dream with custom solid wood cabinets installed by Amoroso Cabinets that reach all the way up to the 10' ceiling, Crema Marfil Marble countertops, a huge island, a wine bar complete with it's own fridge, an antique cast iron sink, and top of the line stainless steel appliances including a 48" Wolf gas range and Sub-Zero fridge. This highly desirable floorplan is a 3-way split with one bedroom on each side of the home and a 3rd bedroom upstairs with a large balcony that overlooks the lake and pool. All 3 bedrooms have full ensuite bathrooms plus there is a powder room for guests. There is also an office with French Doors and built-in bookcases on the main floor, and there is an apartment/in-law suite above the garage with a 4th full bath and it's own kitchenette and laundry that would also work well as a craft room or private office. Gorgeous 5" hand scraped engineered hardwood floors run throughout the main living areas and bedrooms with tile in the foyer and bathrooms. The luxurious master suite is highlighted with elegant Coffered Ceilings and 8' French doors that lead out to your pool and spa. The walk-in closet has custom built-in cabinetry, and the stately master bath has double sinks and an enormous frameless glass shower with a jacuzzi tub large enough for two. The house is adorned with intricate woodworking throughout, and the colorful landscaping, metal roof, exposed beams, covered front porch, and decorative shutters (that are also functional storm shutters) highlight the home's Key West/West Indies architectural style. Other features include 10' Tall Ceilings, 8' Tall Doors, 7.25" Baseboards, 5.25" Crown Molding, a Security/Surveillance System, and a Generac Whole Home Generator plus all Block Construction with Hardie Board siding and Double Paned Low-E Impact Windows.
