Offered with a Top-of-the-Line 5-yr Choice Ultimate Home Warranty! Welcome to the ‘House that Love Built!’ This custom-built, one-owner home has been cherished, as its condition certainly confirms. Purchased pre-construction as a 25th anniversary gift to each other, it has served as a beloved home for family and friends since 1988. You and yours will love the peace of mind this all-block home on slab construction delivers. A new roof in 2023 and new impact windows in 2006 add value. For those windows/sliders that are not impact resistant, there are metal shutters! Here is yet another comfort: The Sellers are providing a 5-year, Ultimate Choice Home Warranty, valued at over $2400, just to give the new stewards of this home yet another reason to feel confident that it is a safe harbor for them and theirs! Here is another reason for confidence: Per the survey, the home sits at 10 & 11ft above base flood elevation! This is a very desirable attribute contributing to safety, resilience, & insurance discounts. Situated on a generous 1/4-acre lot, a relative rarity for homes of this era & size on the beautiful island of Tierra Verde, the property features a lushly landscaped backyard oasis with flowering trees, bushes, and greenery all within the perimeter of a vinyl privacy fence. At the heart of this enormous and well-conceived backyard is a sparkling pool — perfect for relaxing and entertaining. Inside the home, you will find a desirable split-bedroom layout, soaring ceilings, and an open-concept kitchen designed to bring family and friends together. An expansive Florida room with a wall of glass doors stretches across the back of the house providing a beautiful view that brings the beauty of this outdoor oasis into the home itself! The primary bedroom has soaring ceilings and an ultra-spacious ensuite bathroom which enjoys both a walk-in shower with frameless shower enclosure and a separate soaking tub. There is also a large double vanity, thoughtfully designed with a seated area between the sinks for comfortably drying your hair, applying makeup, or putting on your best Jimmy Choos! Here too is closet space galore and abundant natural light gracing the room! The other two bedrooms are at the opposite end of the home, offering owners and guests alike privacy. The open-plan kitchen features custom-built solid wood (ash) cabinetry, including some amazing features that will wow you with their thoughtful creativity and practicality! As the kitchen area seamless flows into the great room area – as well as ‘spills’ into the backyard area, it is easy to imagine sunny days filled with friends and loved ones enjoying the best Florida has to offer, right here in one of its finest gems: The beautiful oasis of Tierra Verde, which is located between two of the highest-rated beaches in the nation, Ft. DeSoto Park and St.Pete Beach. Within walking distance, or a short drive or bike ride, there are many restaurants to enjoy, as well as great live music. There are also two marinas within walking distance. Life is Good… Life like THIS is even better. Get your sun and fun on and then come home to your retreat in ‘The House That Love Built!’
