One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Nestled on a little over a third of an acre and surrounded by Florida flora, this impressive CUSTOM 3-story CONTEMPORARY structure emerges as an immediate neighbor to the ICONIC STETSON MANSION for the contemplative soul who finds both solace & energy in and amidst the wonder of nature! The house's architecture is far from conventional, shunning the "cookie-cutter" mold to prioritize creativity and self-expression. Inside, SOARING WOOD-PLANKED VAULTED CEILINGS, SLATE FLOORS, and A TOWERING TWO-STORY PLATE GLASS WINDOW embrace to bring the outdoors indoors, connecting the living space with the natural surroundings… but doing so in such a dramatic way! Sustained on a SOLID CONCRETE AND BLOCK FIRST FLOOR FOUNDATION, the home is approached via three gates across a wooden bridge before entering through the front door. TWO FRONT LIVING AREAS, both of which offer picturesque views and ceilings with multiple pitched lines creating movement for interest, are incredibly versatile and can be adapted to suit a variety of purposes from formal living and dining to a music and billiards room, or a home office. The galley kitchen features an EXPANSIVE FULL COUNTER BAR and an incredible kitchen-sink window view. It seamlessly flows into the casual living areas which embodies all things OPEN CONCEPT in every direction…stretching upwards TWO FULL STORIES HIGH…extending out to a BACK DECK perfect for grilling…and encompassing THREE ADDITIONAL LIVING AREAS with flexibility of use and furniture placement! Two LARGE SECONDARY BEDROOMS are privately accessed just beyond the ARCHED STAINLESS GLASS DOOR. One, a JUNIOR MASTER, boasts a EUROPEAN-STYLED ENSUITE complete with a BIDET and TWO CLOSETS, and the other bedroom shares the guest-hall bath. The MASTER SUITE is a true sanctuary, commanding the ENTIRE THIRD FLOOR and creating a loft-like urban-industrial space. THREE LARGE-PANELED SKYLIGHTS, strategically placed above a separate dedicated space perfect for yoga and early morning meditation, draw-in natural light and views of the night sky while the MASTER ENSUITE, with its CUSTOM-BUILT DOUBLE VANITY and SLATE SHOWER, exudes a zen-spa ambiance. A MUD ROOM is fittingly placed at the top of the stairs when entering from the 800+ SF GARAGE, currently divided with a temporary wall to create a SEPARATE WORKSHOP space. Ample parking is available as a CONCRETE DRIVE ENCIRCLES the house, and ADDITIONAL STORAGE can be found underneath the front portion of the framework. NEW ROOF 2017! NEW HVAC 2017!
