About this property

Heated Pool, Game Room, Sleeps 14 | Carroll Cove, Carrollwood Tampa

Carroll Cove is a renovated single-level 4-bedroom, 2-bath Carrollwood home for up to 14 guests with a private heated pool and fully fenced yard. A game room, playroom, fireplace and 8-seat table make it a fit for two families, reunions and monthly work stays.

Carroll Cove is a single-level home. The living room, dining table and kitchen run together in one open space with a direct view of the pool. The group gathers on the L-shaped sectional around a 65-inch smart TV, or around the wood-burning fireplace on cooler evenings. Four bedrooms sleep 14, and the game room and kids' playroom keep the younger crowd busy.

★ Bedroom 3: queen bed plus a twin-over-full bunk, smart TV. Sleeps 4.
