Property Description
Under contract-accepting backup offers. Step into a remarkable piece of Belleair history with this century-old Mediterranean-inspired masterpiece, where timeless character, fascinating stories, and exceptional pride of ownership come together. Set along a quiet street with beautiful golf course views from the welcoming front porch, this extraordinary residence is believed to have served as the original Honeymoon Cottage for the legendary Belleview Biltmore Hotel. A historic plaque commemorates its significance, while the home's archives are preserved at the hotel. Over the years, its distinguished guests and residents have included Hollywood star Lana Turner, Sandy Hennings, New York Yankees owner Dan Topping, and golfer Tom Watkins. Honeymooners once traveled by trolley to the hotel, adding another fascinating chapter to this home's story. Beautifully preserved while thoughtfully maintained, the residence is filled with architectural details and character rarely found today. Formal living and dining rooms provide elegant spaces for entertaining, while the dine-in kitchen features stainless-steel appliances, abundant storage, and convenient access to the garage. The spacious family room overlooks the resort-style pool and beautifully landscaped grounds, creating a wonderful connection between indoor and outdoor living. Two charming half baths add convenience to the main level. Upstairs, the inviting primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with two closets, additional storage, and a luxurious ensuite featuring a walk-in shower and soaking tub. Two additional bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath with tub/shower combination, while another bedroom enjoys access to a spacious hall bath. A two-car garage and additional parking add everyday convenience. Ideally located near two private golf clubs, local restaurants, boutique shopping, and beautiful Gulf beaches, this is a rare opportunity to own a treasured piece of Belleair history. Become the next steward of this extraordinary home and continue its remarkable legacy for generations to come.
