Overview

Welcome to 1808 W Bearss Avenue a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own one of the most architecturally distinctive and private lakefront estates in Tampa. With 6 bedrooms, 5.5 bathrooms, and 6,209 sq. ft. of custom-designed living space, this curated residence is set on 1.56 acres with 150 feet of shoreline along the exclusive Lake Magdalene, a 252-acre private ski lake. Only a handful of homes on this lake have the rare combination of architectural scale, acreage, and direct water access, making this an exceedingly uncommon offering in the Tampa luxury market. Inspired by the iconic Southern California designs of Harry Gesner, the A-frame architecture features soaring windows, warm wood tones, and artful finishes throughout. Each room has been thoughtfully curated to flow seamlessly into the next, with hand-selected lighting, textures, and finishes that give the home the feel of a living, breathing art installation. The result is a serene, organic, resort-like experience both inside and out. A brick wall and gated entrance open to a circular driveway, pulling you toward the main home and a 4-car garage connected via porte cochere. The 1,510 Sq. Ft garage offers three individual car bays, with the center bay designed taller for a sprinter van or larger vehicle. In 2022, the second floor was transformed into a fully equipped guest apartment featuring a separate entrance, living room with fireplace, wet bar, mini fridge, and full bathroomideal for guests or a mother-in-law suite. Inside the main home, the lake commands attention from the moment you enter. Floor-to-ceiling windows flood the family room with natural light and panoramic water views. A spiral staircase leads to a second-story loft overlooking both the lake and front yard, complete with its own half bathperfect as an office, creative studio, or lounge. The primary suite is a retreat with lake views, walk-in closet, and spa-inspired ensuite bath with a soaking tub facing the water. Upstairs, two guest rooms feature elevated lofts, one offering its own lakeview perch. The chefs kitchen boasts Viking appliances (double oven, fridge, gas stove with pot filler), granite counters, double dishwashers, a farmhouse sink, and hidden walk-in pantry, all flowing into an expansive layout ideal for entertaining. Just off the kitchen, the formal living room offers an inviting retreat beneath exposed wood beams and vaulted ceilings. Rich hardwood floors and layered lighting create a cozy-yet-elevated ambiance. The dry bar and wine fridge make this space ideal for entertaining. Step outside and youre transported to your own private lakeside sanctuary. The resort-style backyard unfolds with a sparkling open-air pool, Azek premium deck, and uninterrupted, panoramic views of Lake Magdalene. Swim beneath the oaks, sunbathe with wide-open water as your backdrop, or stroll directly from your private beach into the lakeno seawalls, no obstructions, just pure shoreline access. Immaculate tropical landscaping and vibrant gardens create a sense of natural privacy, while a covered boat dock with lift and sunset-view hot tub deck provide the ultimate in waterfront luxury. Additional features include a media room with new carpet, formal dining with organic leaf wallpaper, an outdoor shower, fenced dog run, and a 200-gallon propane tank. All just minutes from Carrollwood Day School, Whole Foods, fine dining, and Dale Mabryoffering seclusion, design, and convenience in one unforgettable package.
