This exceptional five-bedroom, three-bath residence is on an acre lot within the exclusive, gated Alafia Preserve neighborhood, a community comprised of only four homes and offers a refined and private living experience. Upon approach, an updated paved circular driveway leads to the residence's grand, 12-foot wide staircase. As you enter, you'll be captivated by the floor-to-ceiling windows that illuminate the foyer with abundant natural light. The expansive living room features an 18-foot ceiling, a built-in decorative fireplace and a distinctive wood veneer feature wall. The meticulously remodeled kitchen is equipped with new appliances, including a Bosch refrigerator and an induction cooktop range, complemented by butcher block countertops with a waterfall edge, glass tile backsplash and soft-close drawers. Adjacent to the kitchen, the dining room presents a dry bar with glass display cabinetry. The primary bedroom, characterized by floor-to-ceiling windows and interior windows overlooking the living room, coupled with a private balcony provides a tranquil retreat. All bedrooms are uniquely appointed with aquarium windows. Cohesive gold fixtures and hardware contribute to the residence's unified aesthetic. The first level includes an in-law apartment, featuring a bedroom, full bath, living room and kitchenette, offering versatile accommodation. Practical amenities include dual-zoned air-conditioning units, double-pane UV film-covered windows, built-out closets and pantry, and retextured interior drywall. The laundry room is outfitted with a custom dog washing station and direct exterior access. The exterior features a 3,500-square-foot main-level deck with a covered sitting area, dock access with over 90 feet of riverfront on the Alafia River, a wraparound balcony, a separate workshop, and plenty of parking space for your RV or boat. The fenced-in animal area with a detached doghouse is ideal for pet comfort. The expansive sand garden, featuring a water feature/firepit and illuminated by three custom bollard lamps, creates a serene outdoor environment. In the A-rated Bloomingdale High School district, there are nearby shopping and dining varieties such as The Stein & Vine or Three Bulls Tavern & Brewery, as well as many entertainment options such as Urban Air Trampoline & Adventure Park or the Lithia Springs Conservation Park. All of this with close access to Interstate 75 and the Selmon Expressway leading to downtown Tampa.
