Your amazing Old Florida escape awaits at this tranquil Alafia Riverfront Equestrian Estate. Situated on 6.5 acres, the park-like setting allows you to feel truly away from it all while having the convenience of a 20 minute commute to downtown Tampa! Enter through the private gate and follow the tree lined drive to the paver circular drive with fountain and home entry. The residence features 3 bedrooms, 3 baths in a triple split plan layout offering total privacy to all. The massive gourmet kitchen is a chef's dream and perfectly designed to offer a large center entertaining island with breakfast bar giving a gathering space that is separate from but open to the rear cooking area featuring commercial Viking range with grill, Thermador wall oven/microwave, Trash Compactor and GE Monogram Refrigerator. Nothing was spared in this custom kitchen! The recently added sunroom along with rear of the home truly brings the beauty of the property inside, looking out on the massive oak-lined path down to the river. Meander down to the Riverfront entertaining area featuring a large deck, gazebo and dock with lift and dual jet ski lifts. Tampa Bay is a quick 10 minute boat ride away! While the Alafia Riverfront is a special feature of this property, don't forget the 1,590 sf metal roof barn waiting for your horses or other livestock! This barn has hosted many a party and 3 wedding receptions over the past years and was previously home to jumper horses owned by the prior owner. The barn features 3 stalls, wash stall, feed room and tack room as well as a rustic half bath. A 2 acre pasture offers room for your horses to roam and run. The barn is on a separate Teco meter. If horses aren't your thing, just think of all the possibilities the barn holds! Current owner uses one tack room as her pottery studio and stores party supplies in the feed room. You have to see this property to experience the natural Florida beauty!
