Located in Pat Acres, a Tampa neighborhood known for its generous homesites and mature landscaping, La Bella Villa is a one-of-a-kind private retreat on a beautifully maintained half-acre. Enter through a graceful wrought-iron courtyard, where tropical gardens create a sense of privacy that feels remarkably secluded for its convenient Tampa location, yet remains just minutes from Tampa International Airport, shopping and dining, and an easy drive to the Gulf beaches. Inside, warm textures, distinctive architectural details, and thoughtfully updated spaces create a home filled with character. Authentic Saltillo tile flows throughout the main living areas, while a hidden door leads to the main-level primary retreat and a second generously sized bedroom, along with two full bathrooms. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms share a full bath, with one opening to its own screened patio. The recently remodeled staircase and upstairs hallway feature microcement flooring, creating a seamless transition that complements the home’s design. Outside, the home feels like a private resort, with an oversized screened patio overlooking the pool, brick-paver deck, fire pit, hammock lounge, and lush tropical landscaping. Notable updates include a new Spanish clay tile roof installed in 2025 with transferable warranty, new HVAC systems, remodeled bathrooms and back porch, a renovated kitchen with updated appliances, and new pool equipment. A transferable flood insurance policy is also in place. La Bella Villa offers the rare combination of space, privacy, character, and resort-style living in one of Tampa’s most generous residential settings.
