517 Escort Ave is a newly built modern residence that balances clean architectural lines with a warm, organic interior aesthetic. The exterior sets the tone immediately: layered siding textures, a soft coastal-inspired palette, and a welcoming front porch framed by crisp white columns. The symmetry, the roofline, and the oversized windows give the home a refined, contemporary presence on the street — understated yet undeniably upscale. Inside, a dramatic two-story atrium floods the main living area with natural light. The vertical volume, black metal railings, and open sightlines create a sense of scale that feels both architectural and inviting. The living room’s soft neutral furnishings, textured rug, and warm wood accents complement the wide-plank French oak flooring that runs throughout the home. Every detail — from the matte black fixtures to the curated artwork — reinforces a cohesive, modern design language. The kitchen is a standout moment. Light wood cabinetry, brass hardware, and a clean white tile backsplash create a soft, Scandinavian-inspired palette. The wood island adds warmth and functionality, while the pendant lighting introduces a sculptural touch. Stainless steel appliances, a large window over the sink, and thoughtful styling make the space feel elevated yet comfortable — the kind of kitchen that photographs beautifully and lives even better. The dining area continues the indoor-outdoor connection with large sliding glass doors that open to the backyard. Natural light pours in, highlighting the round wood table, modern seating, and layered textures. It’s a space designed for real living — morning coffee, family dinners, or hosting friends with the doors open to the breeze. Upstairs, the primary suite is a serene retreat. Soft natural light, a calming neutral palette, and views of greenery create a restorative atmosphere. The ensuite bathroom features warm vertical tile, a modern vanity with black fixtures, and a boutique-hotel feel. Additional bedrooms — including one with its own ensuite — offer flexibility for family, guests, or a dedicated office. The loft adds another layer of usable space, ideal for a lounge, play area, or creative workspace. Every bathroom in the home is finished with intention: warm tile selections, clean lines, modern lighting, and a balance of natural materials with matte black accents. Even the powder room feels curated, with its vertical accent wall and minimalist fixtures. Premium Construction & Technology Upgrades 1517 Escort Ave is equipped with impact-rated windows and doors, providing enhanced safety, storm protection, energy efficiency, and noise reduction. The home also includes a full 1-2-10 builder warranty — one year of workmanship, two years of major systems, and ten years of structural coverage — offering long-term peace of mind. Modern connectivity is built in with Cat 6 ethernet wiring throughout, Wi-Fi extender locations, and full security-camera prewiring, giving the home a true smart-ready infrastructure. With 2,530 square feet of living space, a two-car garage, and a quiet location with quick access to Tampa’s key destinations, this residence delivers a refined living experience with the ease and confidence of new construction. Plans and a full finishes lookbook are attached for reference.
