Property Description
Tuscany Reimagined! Gorgeous! There are homes that check boxes… and then there are homes that create a feeling the moment you arrive. Tucked behind swaying palms and a private courtyard, this Spanish Mediterranean waterfront residence unfolds with warmth, character, and architectural drama. Steeped in local lore, this Belle Vista waterfront estate is said to have once hosted lavish gatherings under the ownership of a British noble. Step inside and you’re immediately drawn to a sweeping spiral staircase wrapped in wrought iron—a true centerpiece that sets the tone for the entire home. Arched openings, soft textures, and curated finishes create a sense of timeless elegance, while thoughtful renovations and modern systems bring effortless living to every space. Designed for both everyday living and unforgettable entertaining, the home offers five bedrooms, including two primary suites—one on each level—ideal for guests or multi-generational living. And a grand fireplace in the formal living room that cant help but grab attention! At the heart of the home, the kitchen is both striking and functional—featuring a Monogram professional refrigerator, GE Café six-burner gas range, convection oven, warming drawer, and Bosch dishwasher, all complemented by custom cabinetry, Brazilian granite surfaces, and integrated wine refrigeration. Just beyond, a custom-built entertaining bar and piano room overlooking the water set the stage for evenings filled with music, conversation, and light dancing across the bay. Upstairs, the reimagined primary suite becomes a true retreat, opening to a wraparound balcony with new cable railing—perfect for morning coffee or sunset views with wine in hand. The spa-inspired bath offers a freestanding soaking tub, multi-head custom shower, and refined finishes designed for relaxation. Throughout the home, designer lighting, updated flooring, and smart home integration seamlessly control lighting, pool, spa, and security—blending convenience with elevated design. Outside, the experience continues. Expansive multi-level decking overlooks the water, leading to a resort-style pool and waterfall spa, fully automated and enhanced by ambient lighting. A spiral staircase rises to an elevated terrace, offering sweeping views of the surrounding waterways and tropical landscape. For boating enthusiasts, deep water access, a private dock with 12,000 lb lift, and quick passage to Boca Ciega Bay and the Gulf of Mexico make this location as functional as it is beautiful. Significant upgrades—including a new Eagle tile roof, propane system servicing the gas range and spa heater, updated water heaters, and enhanced pool systems—provide peace of mind behind the beauty. As evening falls, landscape and underwater lighting transform the setting into something truly magical—private, peaceful, and quietly spectacular. This is more than a home. It’s a place to gather, to retreat, and to live beautifully by the water.
