Once in a great while a property comes on the market that is so thoughtfully crafted, meticulously designed, and captures the beauty of a Bygone era the moment you step onto her grounds. Such is the case with 9340 S. Tropical Trail. This magnificent estate, inspired by the villas in Florence, Tuscany and Venice, instantly transports you to the heart of Italy. Located on Merritt Island's coveted South Tropical Trail, this 5-bedroom, 4-bath masterpiece spans over 2.24 river-to-river acres, with both Banana and Indian River frontage. Every detail-from the hand-painted tile plaques by Ruiz Gil, to the black-bottom pool with Italian stone fountains-was curated to evoke the romance and grandeur of old-world Europe. Soaring ceilings, a wrought-iron gated entrance, a Diana the Huntress statue, and mature mango trees offer a sense of timeless serenity. With a deep-water dock, new terracotta tile roof, and craftsmanship you can feel in every inch, this estate isn't just a home-it's a legacy. Driving through the handcrafted iron gates down the mature canopied oak Drive, feels as though this home has been lifted from the rolling hills of Florence and lovingly placed along Merritt Island's most scenic stretch of riverfront. Thoughtfully designed to reflect a 200-year-old Italian villa, this private estate offers 120 feet on the Banana River and 115 feet on the Indian River.nThe two-story, solid concrete block structure is as enduring as it is beautiful, with a new terracotta clay tile roo
