In 2013 we posted about a super mansion that was going to be built in Greater Carrollwood, FL. Well, it’s now currently under construction! The 85,000 square foot mega home is being built by Dr. Kiran Patel, who is a noted cardiologist. He purchased the 17-acre lot, located on White Trout Lake, in 2003 for $3.2 million. It was designed by Rojo Architecture and wis being built by Onicx Construction.
Here is the breakdown:
MAIN HOUSE:
32,526 air conditioned square feet
– 15,376 square foot central portion with formal living areas, home theater and a Hindu temple (includes 3700 square foot banquet dining room)
– 8,695 square foot left wing (will be lived in by Kiran and his wife)
– 8,455 square foot right wing (will be lived in by Kiran’s son and his wife)
ADDITIONAL FEATURES:
17,626 square feet in covered exteriors
13,158 square foot garage
Besides the huge main house, Dr. Kiran Patel will be building smaller homes on the property for family members.
There will be two smaller residences (both around 7,500 square feet) for his two daughters that will be connected to the main house by walkways. There will also be 3 guest houses (all around 1,254 square feet) as well as a 3,600 square foot maintenance building.
Other features are to include a 450-foot-long swimming pool, waterfalls, fountains and ponds. A glass lotus blossom structure for yoga practice and a replica of the Taj Mahal carved into a rock mountain also were included in the plans. Plans for a helipad were scrapped.
