Step through the statement pivot front door of this exceptional Snell Isle residence, and it becomes immediately apparent that every detail has been thoughtfully designed. Constructed of solid concrete block, this elevator-equipped (all levels) home offers five spacious bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bath, across 5,700 square feet of refined living space crafted to be experienced as much as it is lived in. The great room makes a striking first impression with soaring ceilings, imported large-format porcelain flooring, and a sleek fireplace wrapped in oversized porcelain tiles that provide warmth and ambiance. The floating staircase is crafted from steel, oak, and tempered glass, with a custom chilled wine case beneath. The chef's kitchen seamlessly blends sophisticated design with exceptional functionality. Jenn-Air appliances include a 42-inch built-in refrigerator, induction cooktop, dual convection oven, built-in coffee maker, and an expansive waterfall island. At the same time, a fully equipped butler's and catering kitchen with commercial-grade ventilation creates effortless entertaining. Concealed ceiling speakers extend throughout the kitchen and dining area, with oversized picture windows and custom built-ins. Upstairs, the primary suite serves as a private retreat, featuring a dedicated sitting lounge, morning bar, and a private terrace overlooking the resort-style pool. The spa-inspired bath is equally impressive, offering dual rain showers with digital controls, a deep soaking tub, and floating vanities with integrated underlighting.  Designed for year-round Florida living, the outdoor spaces are equally exceptional. A heated pool and spa finished in all-glass tile are surrounded by mature Florida landscaping and enclosed by a privacy fence. Covered lanais with wet-rated ceiling fans create inviting spaces for relaxing or entertaining long after the sun sets. Additional highlights include impact-rated windows, R-25 insulation, dual Navien tankless water heaters, a whole-home water purification system, multi-zone Trane HVAC, security cameras, and a surround audio system. Ideally located just minutes from the Vinoy Golf Course and downtown St. Petersburg's waterfront parks, vibrant arts district, and acclaimed dining scene, this is more than a newly built home; this is the Florida lifestyle redefined.
