The most popular Tampa Bay homes in 2022, including a Bucs palace, the Bilzerian mansion, Tom Brady's rental and more

Tampa's infamous Bilzerian mansion

Back in January, the former childhood home of Dan Bilzerian, a professional poker player and so-called "King of Instagram," was on the market in Tampa's gated Avila community.

Located at 16229 Villarreal De Avila, the home was built in 1992 by his father Paul Bilzerian, a disgraced corporate fraudster who served 13 months in prison for illegal stock manipulation.

The 28,363-square-foot home sits on 3.4 acres and comes with a total of 10 bedrooms and 19 bathrooms, as well as a wine room, elevator, four fireplaces, a swimming pool with waterfall and slide, and an "athletic wing," featuring a gym, plus indoor basketball and racquetball courts.

For years the home sat on the market and at one point was listed as high as $18 million. In 2016, a trust paid $2.85 million for the home in what the Tampa Bay Times called the area's "most notorious and expensive foreclosure."

The home is currently off the market.

The 'Edward Scissorhands' house in Lutz

Tim Burton's 1990 goth classic "Edward Scissorhands" was filmed all around Tampa Bay, and the famous house from the movie was on the market this year.

Located at 1774 Tinsmith Cir. in Lutz, the 1,432-square-foot fictional Boggs' house— where Edward (played by Johnny Depp) trimmed the hedges to look like dinosaurs and stabbed the waterbed—features three bedrooms and two bathrooms. Most importantly, it "comes with ALL the priceless collection of memorabilia from the movie," says the listing.

The home was recently turned into a free museum by the current owner, Joey Licalzi, who purchased the property at auction in September of 2020. "It's crazy," said Licalzi to Creative Loafing Tampa Bay. "We bought a running theme park with a worldwide following for $230,000."

Licalzi told CL that it was essentially fate that he won the bid, since he worked on the set of the film as a dishwasher. After Licalzi moved in he rehabbed and transformed the house into a live-in homage to the Tim Burton masterpiece.

This year the asking price was as high as $699,900, but the home is now off the market.

Cigar City Brewing founder Joey Redner’s South Tampa mansion

The house that Jai Alai built is no longer on the market.

According to property records, the South Tampa home of Tampa beer mogul Joey Redner sold this year for a loss at $5.75 million.

The home has been on the market for about two years now, and at one point was listed as high as $7.495 million.

In July of 2016, Redner purchased the home for $6.4 million, which was one of the biggest local real estate deals that year. A few months prior to the purchase, Redner sold a controlling stake of Cigar City Brewing to Colorado-based Oskar Blues for an estimated $60 million.

Last January, Oskar Blues was purchased by energy drink company Monster Beverage for a reported $330 million cash.

Located at 823 S Bayside Dr., in Beach Park, the 7,379-square-foot home was built in 1925, and comes with a total of six bedrooms and nine bathrooms, including a detached guesthouse. It also features 170-feet of waterfront, a pool and spa, an outdoor kitchen, a treehouse, a bocce ball court, and more.

After being represented by others, the listing agent who finally got the sale done was Jennifer Zales with Coldwell Banker Realty.

The St. Pete Beach house from MTV's 'Floribama Shore'

The St. Pete Beach home where a group of 20-somethings centered their entire summer around the phrase "puke and rally" is for sale.

Located at 225 Punta Vista Dr., in St Pete Beach, the property was home to the cast of season three of the MTV reality series "Floribama Shore" and can now be yours for $4,200,000.

The 3,862-square-foot home comes with four-bedroom and four-bathrooms, and features Brazilian hardwood throughout, a four-car garage, an elevator, a deep water dock, a pool and a heated jacuzzi, and a designer kitchen where Gus and Cole famously got into a fight while eating pizza over who was more "trash," Florida boys or Georgia boys.

The listing agent is Chris Featherston of Coastal Properties Group.
