BIG, BRIGHT, AND BEAUTIFUL! In Riverview's Manors of Forest Glen, a gated sanctuary for 80 executive properties, come home to your castle with more than 4,200 SF in this 2-story Madeira from Homes by West Bay! Beyond its dramatic, tower-style foyer that soars over 20 feet high, you get 5 bedrooms, 4.5 baths, and 5 other rooms for living, dining, working or playing before you even step through the French doors of quadruple sliders to a 370-SF screened lanai overlooking a fenced back yard. Quality is everywhere from granite, tile, wood, and wrought iron to crown molding, surround-sound speakers, stainless-steel appliances, and decorative casings around 8-foot beadboard doors. Both the first and second floors are centered around 450-SF living spaces: a downstairs great room with 20x20-inch brick-pattern tile plus an upstairs bonus room with brand-new carpet and its own side bar. That new carpet extends to all 4 upstairs bedrooms, including the spacious master suite that views the woodsy conservation area lining one side of the home instead of another neighbor. Undermount sinks and granite counters in the master's luxury bathroom are repeated in both of the other full baths upstairs as well as the full bath downstairs beside the remaining, wood-floored bedroom. That bed/bath combo in a back corner near the lanai creates an easy guest or in-law suite or flexible den or game room. There's another wood-floored flex room in front -- this one French-doored with crown molding so it's more formal for use as a study or office. Crown is featured also in the formal dining room, which flows with that gorgeous tile from the living room through the kitchen, breakfast nook and foyer. Other upgrades and amenities include over- and under-cabinet lighting in the kitchen, a custom backsplash, tankless gas water heater, and extensive wiring/plumbing to allow surround sound in several rooms, TV and wifi on the lanai, a wet bar upstairs, outdoor kitchen on the lanai, water softener in 1 of the 2 garages with 3 total parking bays, and security cameras in addition to the existing motion-detection system. It's all in Forest Glen close to A-rated schools, shops, restaurants, recreation spots and convenient routes to downtown Tampa, the Gulf beaches or beyond! Schedule your private appointment today.
