This unique Carrollwood estate is a study in contrasts. Expect the unexpected as you take in the home site & this majestic home--a 35' vaulted ceiling with steel beams & skylights & oversized spaces, doors, & windows all in harmony with the intimacy of nature. From the sky, 2 of its 3 design segments are the shape of butterfly wings; hence, this home has been dubbed "The Butterfly House." Built expressly for family enjoyment, artistic displays, & entertaining guests, this home melds with the landscape & is discretely camouflaged by the surrounding foliage as it stealthily sits beside Bay Lake. The main residence incorporates the expansive living room, dining room, gourmet kitchen, library, master bedroom & dressing suite, & a studio. Situated through a short breezeway, the second building, a 3 story loft, expands the living area & the number of bedrooms. Both residences are juxtaposed to the large swimming pool & deck, & both view the lake. A pathway to the private tennis & basket ball courts is nearby. This estate is one of a handful of 5 acre parcels conveniently located (10 to 22 minutes) to Raymond James Stadium, Tampa International Mall, Tampa International Airport, The Straz Center for Performing Arts, the St. Petersburg Times Forum, & the University of South Florida. Numerous dining, entertainment, & sports venues are close by. Excellent private & public schools are within easy access. This romantic, artistic, & functional masterpiece is a must to see.
