Welcome to Andalucia, a private, exclusive Tampa Bay-front enclave of homes located at the tip of Apollo Beach. This is a canal-front home, which leads directly into Tampa Bay! Natural light flows through the open floorplan of the home, with sets of triple sliding glass doors in both the game room and the living room. Step in through the front door and be marveled by the high ceilings, 18" travertine tile, and crown molding throughout, giving the home a very luxurious feel. The carpets have been removed from the home and were replaced with engineered hickory hardwood flooring (all bedrooms and living room)! The living room features a gas fireplace with stone facade, plus a built-in TV cabinet. The gourmet kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, solid maple cabinets, kitchen island, breakfast bar, and dinette eating area. The Fratelli Onofri range is perfect for the home chef, being serviced by gas, and complete with a hood vent! The bedrooms are split in the home, with the master suite on the north side of the home, and the guest bedrooms on the south side of the home. The three guest bedrooms are spacious and have ceiling fans. They share a bathroom that features built-in storage, dual sinks, and a tile shower with tub combo. There is an additional full bathroom that leads directly to the pool (eliminating any need to walk through the house), and this bathroom has an oversized tile shower with a glass enclosure and a rain showerhead. The master suite takes up an entire wing of the house, and the bedroom features a tray ceiling and a third set sliding glass doors leading to the lanai. The master bedroom closet is specious, with built-in features and access through two doors. The master bathroom has a garden tub, separate toilet room, an oversized tile shower with glass blocks, and double vanities. There is a pool table in the formal living room area that conveys with the sale of the home. Working from home? There is a beautiful home office with French doors and built-in shelving. The laundry room is inside the home, with a laundry sink, granite countertops, and plenty of cabinet space. The garage is oversized, with additional storage with shelves, and an epoxy floor. House has central vac system. The pool deck is west-facing, meaning plenty of afternoon sun and amazing sunsets! The pool was converted to saltwater. The covered lanai has two ceiling fans to add additional air flow during the day, and there is also an outdoor kitchen, complete with built-in gas grill! The current owners added the lanai and cage in 2016! Step out the back of the lanai down to the dock, where you can watch crabs scuttle through the mangroves. The dock has three boat lifts: two 4,500 jet ski lifts, and one 20,000 boat lift. Smart home features include a wifi-enabled thermostat and sprinkler system. The home also has exterior cameras and an ADT security system. Upgrades to the home include: BRAND NEW tile roof, installed in 2020 * new RHEEM 5 ton HVAC system with 10 year warranty installed in 2016 * updated 20'x19' Trex decking dock * brand new lanai cage and screens in 2016 * engineered hardwood floors installed in 2016 * hot water heater replaced in 2010. Andalucia is a private enclave of homes that has a variety of amenities including: 24-hour guard gate; private roads; lighted clay tennis courts; clubhouse with community pool, beach, playground, and basketball court; fishing jetty with views of Tampa Bay; and Andalucia Yacht Club.
