Family Estate

Modern Italianate

This modern Italianate-style home was designed for a young family that traveled extensively and wanted to feature materials and design styling seen in grand old homes of Europe.  The 2 story entry foyer features a marble checkerboard floor and grand stair with a Juliet balcony at the top, reminiscent of traditional Italian estates. 

Because the owners love to cook with the family the Christopher Peacock cabinetry and island make the kitchen both a social space for sharing a meal and a hard-working space for preparing food. At the opposite end of the home is a private guest suite. Upstairs, the bedrooms all have views of the water, highlighted by a private master suite with a large shower room creating a relaxing retreat at the end of the day. Outdoors, the canal front location takes advantage of the waterfront with a pool, hot tub, and outdoor entertaining space as well as boating access to Tampa Bay.
