Virtually Staged. A rare opportunity on Davis Islands — Casa Jardine is a fully custom-built, all concrete block pool home on two levels, set on a corner lot with high elevation and commanding curb appeal. Timeless in its architectural character, this five-bedroom, five and one-half bath residence was designed for those who want resort-style living without compromise. From the moment you arrive, an impressive two-story rotunda entry sets the tone — featuring exquisite woodwork and a grand chandelier. Inside, the open and airy floor plan is bathed in natural light, with ten-foot ceilings, eight-foot solid-core doors, extra-wide custom French doors, and seamless access to the zen tropical outdoors from virtually every room. The chef's kitchen is built for serious entertaining — center island, breakfast bar, wet bar, six-burner gas range, dual ovens, and a butler's pantry. The primary suite is a true retreat: wide custom French doors open to a private balcony overlooking the pool and tropical garden, with a generous sitting area, custom his-and-hers California walk-in closets, and a spa-inspired en suite bath featuring a jetted tub, walk-in shower, and dual custom vanities. Every additional bedroom includes its own en suite bath and French doors to a Juliet balcony. The home offers a large bonus room, family room, formal dining room, living room, two covered patios, four balconies, a large terrace, and a three-car garage. Designer finishes throughout include hand-scraped solid Brazilian hardwood floors, granite slab surfaces, two gas fireplaces, crown molding, wood casing on all windows and doors, authentic Tuscan light fixtures, central vacuum, intercom, and security system. Outside, handmade wrought iron details, natural Corinthian stonework, travertine pavers, mature tropical landscaping, and a butterfly garden create a private oasis. 2025 updates include: new roof, exterior paint, awnings, and built-in side-by-side refrigerator. Newer zoned A/C and water heater. Meticulously maintained by its original owner, this home is move-in ready. Davis Islands is a beloved golf cart community with no HOA fees, offering a private beach, yacht club, tennis club, community pool, dog park, walking and biking trails, parks, a baseball field, waterfront dining, and a small private airport — all just minutes from downtown Tampa.
