Welcome to La Dolce Vita—the good life. From the moment you arrive, this enchanting home captivates with its paver driveway, graceful porte cochère, and tall columns supporting a cool, shaded front porch that invites you to linger. The elegant entry door, adorned with a square lattice inset of luminous capiz shells, offers a hint of the beauty that unfolds inside. Step through and be greeted by soaring ceilings, crown molding, and a glowing gas fireplace anchoring an open, light-filled floor plan designed for effortless living and memorable gatherings. The home is rich with vintage character—none more striking than the dramatic vintage folding doors with capiz shell accents in sun-warmed Mediterranean tones of terra-cotta, Tuscan gold, and cerulean blue. Throughout the home, original two-panel doors with glass knobs and brass hardware are sourced vintage elements that showcase craftsmanship of a bygone era. At the heart of the home, the kitchen is both stunning and social, boasting honed granite countertops, bar seating beneath pendant lights, gleaming stainless-steel appliances, and a new gas range—perfect for hosting lively dinners or intimate evenings alike. The primary suite is a true sanctuary with a walk-in closet, a private entry to the backyard and hums with good energy and comfort. Enter the spa-like en-suite bath through a wonderful salvaged oak barn door where you’ll discover new oversized curated floor-to-ceiling tile, a new double-sink vanity, frameless glass walk–in shower, and a sculptural fluted sumptuous soaking tub beneath a charming bubble chandelier, creating a daily ritual of indulgence. Designer lighting throughout enhances the abundant natural light pouring in through a generous amount of windows. Out back the fully fenced backyard reveals a private oasis: a beautifully landscaped retreat complete with an outdoor kitchen featuring a gas grill, refrigerator, bar, pergola, gas fireplace lounge area, custom lighting AND a flat screen TV — an irresistible setting for al fresco entertaining or watching the big game under the stars. Perfectly situated in sought-after South Seminole Heights, just steps from the river and Rivercrest Park, this home offers the rare luxury of tranquility without compromise—and the peace of mind of being outside the flood zone. Your new lifestyle is waiting for you!
