Mansion Monday: Live out your rom-com dreams in this Tampa home

Step inside this Mansion Monday pick that has us feeling like we’re living out our favorite, nostalgic, feel-good films.

Mediterranean-style house with arched windows, tall cypress trees, and a sunset sky in the background.

Calling all Nancy Meyers fans — this home has everything you’re looking for.

Product Editor Amelia here. If you’re anything like me and grew up devouring classic rom-com films, you know the homes often steal the show — and I think I just found a real-life version of one in Tampa. Cue “What Dreams Are Made Of” from “The Lizzie McGuire Movie.”

Lavender walk-in closet with built-in shelves, a black bench, and a floral-patterned ceiling.

Every morning in this closet will feel like your own personal getting ready montage.

This 6,833-sqft Beach Park estate has a private brick driveway and fountain courtyard that instantly reminded me of Amanda Woods’ dreamy house in “The Holiday” — Mediterranean-inspired with a modern twist.

Modern pool with a waterfall feature, spiral staircase, and glowing lights at sunset.

Need a backdrop for your Harvard admissions video a la Elle Woods? We think this pool fits the bill.

Looking inside and into the backyard, you’ll find features + amenities like:

  • A spacious, natural light-filled kitchen that would make Chessy from “The Parent Trap” swoon. Not to mention the 700-bottle wine cellar downstairs
  • A massive primary suite complete with a sitting area, fireplace, wet bar, and custom closet, like in “The Princess Diaries 2"
  • A backyard oasis that could have been designed by Nancy Meyers herself, featuring a pool with a waterfall and spa, putting green, in-ground trampoline, terrace balcony, and outdoor kitchen
