Designed by noted Tampa architect B. Clayton Bonfoey for Senator John J.

Set on over half an acre, the red brick manor is distinguished by soaring white Ionic columns and an expansive front porch.

Designed for elegant entertaining, the main level offers a grand formal living room, an inviting dining room and a sunlit solarium.

Adjacent, a beadboard-accented laundry and mudroom connects seamlessly to the heated saltwater pool and patio. The upper level includes a luxurious primary suite with a fireplace, a spa-inspired bath with a clawfoot soaking tub and frameless glass walk-in shower, and a custom-designed dressing room. Additional guest bedrooms each enjoy updated en-suite baths. The third floor offers a private guest suite complete with a kitchenette, full bath and cozy reading nook, ideal for multigenerational living or an additional retreat. The grounds evoke a private resort, with a heated saltwater pool enhanced by graceful fountains, a covered entertaining pavilion featuring a gourmet summer kitchen, cooling misters and ceiling fans, all set amid professionally landscaped gardens.
