One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Set along the tranquil shores of Lake Taray within Avila, this exceptional lakefront estate presents a rare opportunity to own a true legacy property in one of Tampa’s most revered and ultra-private enclaves. Framed by towering mature trees and uninterrupted water views, the residence is a masterclass in contemporary architecture, where soaring volumes, refined materials, and seamless indoor-outdoor living create an atmosphere of understated sophistication. Dramatic 30-foot ceilings and expansive walls of glass draw natural light deep into the interiors, while floor-to-ceiling windows capture panoramic lake vistas from nearly every room, blurring the line between architecture and nature. Thoughtfully reimagined in 2021 with continued enhancements, the home balances elevated design with effortless livability. At its center, a striking chef’s kitchen is appointed with an oversized gathering island, Viking and Miele appliances, stone surfaces, a 42-inch workstation sink, and a beautifully integrated wet bar designed for uncomplicated entertaining. The adjacent dining room, living room, and library unfold seamlessly beneath soaring ceilings, while double French doors open to the expansive lanai and resort-style saltwater pool, creating a fluid connection to the surrounding landscape. The primary suite is conceived as a private retreat unto itself, complete with a fireside sitting room, spa-inspired bath, and dual walk-in wardrobes. Every space throughout the residence has been curated to evoke both comfort and quiet luxury, offering a lifestyle equally suited to intimate evenings and large-scale entertaining. Avila is among Tampa Bay's most established and closely held addresses. Round-the-clock guard-gated security, resort-caliber amenities - parks, pickleball and basketball courts, a dog park, pavilion, and walking paths - and optional membership to the Avila Golf & Country Club, with championship golf, tennis, fitness, and dining, set the standard for the lifestyle this community offers. Downtown Tampa is twenty minutes away. Waterfront estates of this standing in Avila rarely come to market. This is one worth knowing.
