This exceptional Harold James Builders custom home, crafted by a boutique Tampa contractor for their personal residence, stands as a testament to his unparalleled craftsmanship and vision. This home seamlessly integrates the historic charm of its original 1920s façade with a meticulously executed interior and exterior reconstruction completed in 2016. Upon entering, you're greeted by quarter-sawn oak floors that flow seamlessly through the open-concept layout, bathed in natural sunlight filtering through the French doors. Custom crown molding and millwork adorn every door and window, adding a touch of sophistication to each room. The kitchen is a chef's dream, featuring granite countertops, custom solid wood cabinets with seed glass inserts, and a large center island topped with leather-cut granite. High-end appliances include a Verona gas range, a custom designed exhaust hood, and a GE Chef Collection stainless steel fridge.
