About 1940 Floresta View Dr

Welcome to this beautifully updated Mediterranean-style estate, nestled in the highly sought-after gated community of New Floresta — a peaceful neighborhood of just 31 homes. Situated at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this spacious two-story residence offers over 4,350 square feet, combining timeless architectural charm with thoughtful modern upgrades. Built by Bayfair Homes, this property features five bedrooms, four full and one half bathrooms, a bonus room, a playroom, and a screened heated saltwater pool — all set on an oversized lot with an expansive backyard perfect for outdoor enjoyment. The first floor is designed with both elegance and function in mind. The owner’s suite is conveniently located downstairs, along with a guest bedroom and a bonus room that offers flexible use — with the potential to be converted into a private in-law suite. The heart of the home is the stunning gourmet kitchen, which has been recently updated with white-painted Greenfield designer cabinetry, a new custom tile backsplash, Cambria quartz countertops, and a Koehler farmhouse sink. Premium appliances include a Wolf gas convection range with built-in griddle, Wolf drawer-style microwave, Sub-Zero French door refrigerator, and Sub-Zero under-counter beverage cooler. A spacious butler’s pantry and a large laundry room with ample storage round out this chef’s dream space. The home is filled with designer details, including warm wood flooring in the main living areas, plantation shutters and blinds, and built-in closet systems in every bedroom. A beautifully designed custom accent wall adds style to the downstairs movie room or optional bedroom, while the formal dining room features a striking custom ceiling treatment and upgraded designer lighting throughout the home enhances both ambiance and sophistication. Additional practical touches include an air-conditioned attic/storage room offering accessible year-round storage. Upstairs, you’ll find three generously sized bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a versatile playroom or craft space ideal for kids or hobbies. Step outside to your private outdoor oasis. The screened-in saltwater pool is heated for year-round use, and the large pavered deck offers ample space for lounging or entertaining. The backyard is expansive with plenty of green space and trees and is perfect for gatherings, gardening, or simply relaxing in the Florida sunshine. Ideally located minutes from top-rated schools, premier dining and shopping, Avila Golf and Country Club, and with easy access to I-275, the Veterans Expressway, and area hospitals, this meticulously maintained home offers both luxury and convenience in one of Tampa’s most desirable locations. This is a rare opportunity to own a truly special home in New Floresta — where thoughtful design, generous space, and exceptional location come together in perfect harmony.
