Mediterranean

12205 Broadwater Loop. Imagined and built in 2008 by Tampa's most prestigious builder: Alvarez Homes. This Mediterranean beauty is located in Stonelake Ranch: a 680-acre master-planned equestrian community that boasts privacy, prestige & security. No rear neighbors, 1.8 acres of land, and 170 feet of water frontage with access to Lake Thonotosassa: the dock comes equipped with a 10,000 pound boat lift & 2 jet ski lifts. Every sense is captivated with the prominent entrance to the home: an access bridge...a long winding driveway... a courtyard with extra parking and a private gate for a grand entry. Beautiful wooden double doors take you to your 2-story foyer, with immediate views of the stately formal sitting room and formal dining room upon entering the home. The master suite and executive office are conveniently located on the east-wing of the home. If you are looking for a retreat from life's anxieties: look no further. The master suite is serene, with vaulted ceilings, crown moulding, its own sitting area with a fireplace and views of the extensive backyard. The master bathroom has two vanities, and custom cabinetry from floor to ceiling. Inside the master bathroom is an extra room that would make an excellent nursery, home office, or additional closet. But the ultimate surprise is the magnificent master closet: with two islands, custom cabinetry, rope molding, and enough space for even the most extensive shoe, purse, and clothing collections. On the west wing of the home is a grand chef's kitchen with subzero fridge, built-in range hood, and oversized island. The kitchen is open to the spacious family room, with plentiful natural light creating the perfect haven for entertaining guests. And speaking of entertainment, what better way to "dive" into the Florida lifestyle than enjoying the indoor-outdoor connection via the doors to covered rear patio from the family room. The backyard boasts a huge pool, covered gazebo, outdoor kitchen, and lots of green space that leads up the dock & waterfront. Also downstairs is a spacious guest bedroom with en-suite bathroom. The first floor is a home unto itself, and the second floor provides even more amenities: three bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms (two of which have their own balconies), and a HUGE 22X20 BONUS room with an oversized balcony that boasts views of the LAKE. Equipped with a wet bar & wine cooler, the bonus room offers flexible options for entertainment and would make a great THEATER/MEDIA center. The home is a short drive to downtown Tampa, Tampa International airport, major hospitals including TGH, Moffitt & Lakeland Regional. Quick access to interstates I-4 & I-75, shopping & all that the Tampa has to offer. Do not miss this opportunity to secure a one of a kind estate, and to make the kind of memories that last a lifetime. 3d tour and floorplan available upon request.
