Located just one block from Swann Circle, this Mediterranean Revival home is situated amongst the grand oak canopies of South Tampa's sought-after Beach Park neighborhood. The total square footage reflects the 4,133 sq ft main house and the 979 sq ft guest space. The main home, which features 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms with original hardwood flooring, exudes old-world style and architecture while offering today's conveniences like a modern kitchen with professional appliances, updated bathrooms and garage parking for four vehicles. The grand oak spiral staircase, wrought iron chandeliers, radius arches, and spectacular 20 foot living room with beamed ceiling and hand stenciled artwork are highlights of this home's meticulously maintained original craftsmanship. Originally owned by the Brorein Family (Carl D. Brorein was the President of Tampa's Peninsular Telephone Company and the namesake of downtown's Brorein Street), the home was built for entertaining large groups and is equally as elegant for smaller, more intimate settings. As for spaces to gather, the front porch with retractable screens opens with double french doors to both the main living and dining rooms allowing for comfortable year round indoor/outdoor living. Just off the bar area and family room is the tree-shaded 500 sq. ft. rear patio encompassed by ornamental concrete balusters similar to those that adorn Bayshore Boulevard. Supplemental to the main home is an oversized guest house with one large bedroom, full bath, spacious living room, and kitchenette. This visitors retreat will offer your company the right amount of privacy with all the creature comforts of being in one's own home while being steps away from the rear of the main house. This well-cared for home exudes historical charm, attention to detail and is functional for today's modern lifestyle.
