Description

Tucked away on a sprawling, oak-canopied lot of nearly an acre, this stately residence in Clearwater's highly sought-after Wedgewood Estates offers an unparalleled blend of architectural character, generous scale, and resort-style outdoor living. Boasting over 6,100 square feet of heated living space, this remarkable home is designed for both grand-scale entertaining and comfortable everyday living, surrounded by the tranquility of mature landscaping and beautiful grounds. A sweeping circular paver driveway leads to a striking Tudor-inspired facade, framed by magnificent shade trees and dramatic landscape lighting that creates an unforgettable evening presence. A covered drive-through breezeway connects the residence to the garage wing, creating a striking architectural feature while providing sheltered access and additional covered parking. Complementing the estate's functionality is a substantial pavered motor court behind the garage, offering abundant space for RV and boat parking, collector vehicles, and large-scale guest accommodations. Upgrades include a Full House Generator (2019), Two Tankless Hot Water Heaters (2019), New Flat Roof (2025), a Beautifully Remodeled Kitchen, Deep Well for Irrigation, and much more! Step through the double glass entry doors into a grand foyer that sets the tone for the home's impressive interiors. This home features 6 Bedrooms, 5 Bathrooms, an Executive Office with Private Entrance, a 1-Bedroom Apartment, a Large Bonus Room with Pool Bath, an open gym/rec area, an Open Loft, Storage Rooms, and much more! The flowing floor plan effortlessly connects formal and casual spaces, featuring a chandelier-lit dining room and an expansive family room anchored by a dramatic stone fireplace wall and highlighted by rich wood-beamed ceilings that add warmth and architectural character. Wide-format tile flooring, rich wood accents, and custom stained-glass details add warmth and timeless elegance throughout. The heart of the home is a spacious, open-concept kitchen featuring granite countertops, custom wood cabinetry, a tile backsplash, and an inviting layout that overlooks the main living areas. This home offers tremendous flexibility for a buyer to enjoy its classic charm or further customize and modernize the spaces to their exact vision. What truly sets this property apart is the combination of two extraordinary bonus spaces that most homes of any size simply cannot offer. A large, dedicated home office features its own private entrance and a full bathroom, making it ideal for a home-based professional, a creative studio, or a private guest suite entirely separate from the main living areas. In addition, a fully detached in-law suite offers complete independence with a private one-bedroom layout, a full kitchen, and a full bathroom. Whether accommodating extended family, hosting long-term guests, or generating rental income, the possibilities are endless. Step outside to discover a private, resort-inspired oasis. The massive screen-enclosed pool area is a true showstopper, complete with a custom rock waterfall and slide feature that promises endless entertainment. Broad paver decking provides abundant space for entertaining, all while overlooking the expansive, lushly landscaped backyard. Located in a premier Clearwater neighborhood with no flood insurance required (Zone X), this estate delivers the ultimate combination of privacy, space, and lifestyle versatility.
