*** ABSOLUTELY STUNNING MID-CENTURY MODERN *** This Frank Lloyd Wright Prairie Home design architected by renown Harvard Jolly Architecture is situated on a very large corner lot with 75’ of waterfront on Fernery Bay. The home has been completely updated and modernized with an exceptional attention to preserving the key architectural elements of the original design. Mitered glass windows and doors connect the indoors with wraparound re-screened porches abounding light, airflow, and the feel of Old Florida. The interior wood banding, organic elements, and recessed wood soffits have been completely refinished. The floated, smooth ceilings in combination with LED Uplighting, Art Track Lighting, and extensive recessed lighting provide a striking impact. New Travertine Shell Stone flooring extends throughout the first floor living, dining, kitchen, bedroom, laundry, and pantry. The pool bar has a second refrigerator and dishwasher, ice maker, wine cooler and seating area. Hardwood stairs lead up to an entertaining Loft or an office, guest bedroom, and the en-suite Primary Bedroom with a large walk-in custom closet and newly remodeled Bath with dual sinks, deep tub and shower wet room. Motorized blinds, speakers with surround sound, and new door hardware are just a few of the many upgrades made to this home. And no truly 21st century home would be complete without a Smart Home system which remotely controls lighting, blinds, music, temperature, security, door bell, locks, irrigation, and some appliances via an app. The enormous chef’s kitchen has been expanded and completely remodeled with solid Cherry cabinetry, granite countertops matched throughout the home, Arto Custom Bow Tie backsplash and a very large island, with power and USB ports. Commercial style appliances including a 5 Starr dual fuel, 6 burner stove with double ovens and matching 5 Starr hood complete the kitchen. A finished, spacious 2 car garage with resurfaced flooring and travertine driveway with additional parking provide plenty of room for you and your guests. Outside, you’ll find a refinished 34’ pool with travertine decking overlooking the water. The extraordinary landscape lighting, gardens, fountains, and seating areas all offer wonderful outdoor entertainment options. All improvements including the roof, seawall, dock, gutters, fences, and pavers have been upgraded over the last 5 years. Fernery Bay has unfettered access to Tampa Bay and the Gulf of Mexico with no bridges. All this and so much more, only your personal tour will reveal the numerous improvements to this most gorgeous home.
