Welcome to the terrific, gated community of Adeste in Ballast Point, former home to two of Tampa’s past mayors! First time on the market since its initial sale, this beautiful end-unit condo was the original model unit for the coveted 17 unit property and lives like a townhouse. Have the benefit of South Tampa at your fingertips in this fabulous location! Just minutes from your favorite restaurants, stores, Ballast Point Park, and seconds from Bayshore Linear Park Trail. Drive up the well-maintained brick driveway and enter through a private courtyard area past the spacious two-car garage. The entryway greets guests through a hallway that opens up into the airy living room with a soaring two story high ceiling. The floor plan makes your daily routine a breeze, with great eating space in the kitchen, walk-in pantry, stainless steel appliances, an updated Mediterranean backsplash, and a wonderful dining area. The back of the home is lined with windows and French doors, which let in gorgeous natural light. Out the French doors is the vibrant, screened-in pool area, with stately gas lamps to really set the mood. Enjoy happy hours with the convenient wet bar, wine fridge, and ice maker. A downstairs bedroom with en-suite bathroom rounds out the first floor. The second floor features a beautiful loft area and landing, where you can get creative and make it a second living space or home gym. The primary bedroom suite is generously sized, with French doors going out to a balcony overlooking the pool, and double walk-in closets. Walk into the bright primary bathroom and find your zen “me time” in the large soaking tub, or at the dual vanity with make-up space. The third bedroom features an incredible library and office which could be perfect for someone seeking to take advantage of today’s work from home flexibility. The custom-built Mahogany shelving and paneling throughout the house have been featured in newspaper and commercial design publications. Delight in the convenience of the upstairs laundry room, with plenty of room to store additional items. See all this in person today and schedule a showing!
