The Home Has a Storied History of Celebrity Ownership

Listed by Justin Smith at Smith & Associates Real Estate.

Nestled within the prestigious enclave of Snell Isle Harbor in St. Petersburg, Florida, 2020 Brightwaters stands as a testament to unparalleled luxury living. The architectural marvel sits on a half-acre waterfront lot and offers a lifestyle of opulence and sophistication, with the added allure of being owned by Hollywood icon Rhonda Shear. Known for her role as the host of USA’s “Up All Night,” Shear is an actress, comedian, and entrepreneur. She is the inventor of the globally bestselling AHH-Bra and has appeared in numerous movies and sitcoms, including Spaceballs, Happy Days, Married With Children, and Dallas. Before Shear, the father of the current Chicago Fire star owned the home.

Entry to the Grand Mediterranean home is through a majestic, gated entry, greeted by an avenue of towering palm trees leading to the palatial estate. Spanning over 10,000 square feet of living space, the home features five ensuite bedrooms, six bathrooms with three powder rooms, a custom bar, an executive chef’s kitchen, and an eight-seat movie theater. The primary owner's retreat, spanning the entire south wing of the second floor, offers a spa-like bath, marble floors, and two oversized walk-in closets. There are four balconies and a 400 square-foot in-law suite with an ensuite bathroom, walk-in closet, kitchen, and private entry.

"Every aspect of this estate exudes luxury. It's a distinct haven dripping in elegance and sophistication from the moment you enter the grand foyer adorned with bespoke millwork," says Justin Smith, listing agent at Smith & Associates Real Estate.

This Italian-inspired oasis even has a commercial-grade elevator. With amenities rivaling the best all-inclusive resorts, from a gym with a full sauna to a salon spa and billiards game room. The home boasts a resort-style outdoor terrace featuring 102 feet of water frontage, a pebble-tech heated saltwater pool and spa with a summer kitchen and cabana, and a private beach.

Boaters will particularly appreciate the protection of Snell Isle Harbor, offering unmatched direct access to Tampa Bay. Conveniently located less than 10 minutes away from vibrant Downtown St. Petersburg and a 25-minute drive to Downtown Tampa and the Tampa International Airport, this estate offers the utmost accessibility.
