Azure skies, gentle breezes, magical sunsets, and sweeping gulf-front views: These lovely elements meld together at Graeme Lloyd’s custom waterfront estate in Palm Harbor, FL.
And as luck would have it, the retired Major League Baseball reliever is selling this tropical paradise for $1.5 million.
With four bedrooms and five bathrooms, the 3,100-square-foot home is a dream. It’s got a graceful circular drive offset by mature palms and crisp landscaping trimmed to the most meticulous detail. There are gorgeous stone facades as well as arches and gables that add terrific architectural flair.
Beyond the glass entryway, there are high ceilings with stately crown molding and gleaming cherry hardwoods that extend throughout the home.
The master suite has access to a large, wrap-around deck with endless views of the Gulf of Mexico and its colorful sunsets—not to mention a spa bath with a sunken tub from which you can look out across the water and gaze off into another world.
The kitchen is an entertainer’s playground, with top-of-the-line stainless appliances and a large granite-topped center island with its own gas range—all set amongst custom cherry cabinetry and artisan tile flooring.
Downstairs, there’s a billiards table, a bar, and access to the home’s outdoor oasis. With an expansive, paver stone patio, glittering pool and spa, a private dock with two boat lifts, an outdoor shower and a massive deck, it’s an area you might never want to leave.
Australian Graeme Lloyd spent his 10-year MLB career with seven teams, most notably the New York Yankees from 1996-98. He won two World Series championships with the Bronx Bombers as a left-handed relief specialist in the bullpen.
Lloyd’s final 16 games in the major leagues were with the Kansas City Royals in 2003, so we know he will be watching his former club tonight as they play Game Three of the World Series in San Francisco against the Giants.
