From Dream to Reality: The Story of a Stunning Palma Ceia Home Sale
A Modest Beginning: The Tear-Down That Started It All
A year and a half ago, this stunning custom home was just a small 2-bedroom, 1-bath house in Palma Ceia. It was a property with potential, but in a market where demand is high, competition is fierce.
We had to bid $40,000 over asking price just to secure the home. That’s the reality of South Tampa real estate—when a great lot in a prime neighborhood becomes available, you have to act fast.
Once the deal was closed, the transformation began. The existing home was torn down to make way for something bigger, more modern, and perfectly suited for today’s buyers.
A Dream Home Becomes a Reality in Palma Ceia
For many homebuyers, finding the perfect home in South Tampa is a journey filled with anticipation and excitement. For one out-of-state family, that dream became a reality when they secured this stunning, custom-built home by Mobley Homes in Palma Ceia.
What started as a long-distance search quickly transformed into an opportunity they couldn’t pass up. With its luxurious finishes, spacious layout, and unbeatable location, this home checked every box on their wish list.
Luxury and Comfort: Inside the Custom South Tampa Home
This exceptional home was built to impress, featuring 4 spacious bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms designed with both style and functionality in mind. A second en-suite offered added privacy, perfect for guests or multigenerational living.
The open-concept kitchen featured a large island, stainless steel appliances, and 42” cabinets, making it a dream space for cooking and entertaining. Just off the kitchen, the flex room provided the perfect setting for a home office or study.
Upstairs, the owner’s retreat was a sanctuary of relaxation, complete with his & her walk-in closets and a luxurious spa-like bathroom featuring a soaking tub and a spacious shower.
The Perfect Setting for South Tampa Living
Beyond the impeccable design, this home embraced the best of South Tampa living. With high ceilings, 5.25” crown molding, and engineered wood flooring, every detail was carefully crafted.
French doors led to a covered lanai, creating the perfect space for Florida-style indoor-outdoor entertaining. Every window was framed with 3.5” Delta Howe Casing, adding to the home’s polished look.
And for families, the top-rated schools—Mitchell Elementary, Wilson Middle, and Plant High—made this an even more desirable location.
