I am the second owner of this home. It was originally built by a ship magnate who spared no cost in making it the best and strongest built home I have ever seen. The home has 3000 SQ FT of heated area and 2500 SQ ft of covered and open balconies. I am a Certified Florida Contractor and building homes for over 35 years. I can recognized how the quality of this home is like none other. The entire first floor is on a suspended foundation with a concrete poured concrete floor supported by 8x16 inch steel reinforced beams. The footers are over sized to hold up the 10 inch blocks, both first and second floor with 1x6 inch diagonally placed interior and the finish wall inside. Not to mention other attributes which I could go on and on. The home has 3000 SQ feet of heating and AC area and triple garage with 7000 SQ feet of paver driveway,3000 sq feet of covered porches and open terrace's. It is located on 1 acre of country like property in a private 7 home subdivision with it's own private road with the property fronting on the Hillsborough River with dock and 10,000 pound boat lift, 5 to 7 minutes away from downtown Tampa. 15 minutes from Airport and lots of restaurants close by. The interior of the home's floors feature all stone and tile and the second floor is all red oak except for the bath rooms which are tile..The roof was finished with a Pacific Blue glazed finished tile imported from spain that repels water and will always shine. There is always plenty of natural light that reflects the wood walls that resembles a cruise ship. There are two wood burning fire place's. One in Living room the other in a room we call the lodge with exposed beams that measures 24 x 30 feet. The large kitchen has large windows overlooking the views with plenty of wood cabinets and a granite counters with colors like none ever seen. This kitchen has food and plate warmers wine cooler and everything you will see in a gourmet kitchen. Every room has a park view.
