About this home
One of Sunset Park's rare surviving 1920s estate homes, this extraordinary Mediterranean residence evokes the timeless elegance of Palm Beach's golden era while offering the comfort, functionality, and infrastructure expected by today's luxury buyer. Situated on nearly one-half acre beneath a canopy of majestic oaks and mature Florida palms, the property offers a setting that recalls Old Florida elegance while benefiting from an extensive 2025-2026 renovation and modernization.
Approximately $500,000 was invested in carefully planned improvements, including more than $100,000 in electrical and infrastructure upgrades. The renovation was undertaken with a singular goal: modernize the home for contemporary living while meticulously preserving the historic details that make it irreplaceable. The result is a seamless balance of old and new.
The redesigned kitchen and living spaces have been opened to create exceptional flow for everyday living and entertaining. Original architectural elements, including character-rich details that reflect the home's 1924 heritage, remain integral to the residence, while updated finishes, systems, and living spaces provide modern convenience throughout.
Offering over 5,000 square feet of living space, the home features three generous gathering rooms downstairs, with one featuring a gorgeous gas fireplace reminiscent of the Great Gatsby era. In the kitchen, architectural-quality cabinetry throughout, punctuated by new stainless Jenn-Air appliances. There is an integrated food preparation or planning/study nook with ample counter space, and a large walk-in pantry. A breakfast room featuring tall carved wood panel doors offers a sunny space for dining. Downstairs also offers two large bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms, a large laundry room and a mudroom with a convenient pool bath. Upstairs, the large primary bedroom is adjacent to the primary bathroom suite appointed with every upgraded fixture and feature, complete with an extraordinary window-lined dressing room featuring nearly 20-foot ceilings. Adjacent to the primary suite is a spacious executive office with elevated views and an exposed brick accent wall, ideal for a home-based business or private retreat. Large windows frame expanded views of the lush grounds, creating a connection between the interior and the estate-like setting outside. The upstairs level is completed by an unusually large separate guest/in-law studio with kitchenette, a full bathroom with its own laundry connections, and its own private entrance.
The private backyard is designed for entertaining and relaxation, anchored by a large saltwater pool and expansive outdoor living areas surrounded by mature landscaping and abundant green space. Few properties in South Tampa offer this combination of privacy, scale, and character. Adding to the property's uniqueness is a tidal canal at the rear of the property, providing opportunities for kayaking and exploration through the surrounding mangroves offering a connection to nature rarely found in the heart of South Tampa.
A truly one-of-a-kind South Tampa residence in the best school district where historic charm, modern functionality, and an exceptional setting come together in a way that cannot be replicated....
