Description

*WATCH THE VIDEO WALK THROUGH!* This beautiful historically preserved 4 bed, 3 bath bungalow is on a corner lot in the Historic District of Old Seminole Heights. This home has so much character and is one of the area's most well designed and renovated bungalows. Built in 1924, and well maintained by the current owner, this classic bungalow has won an award for its preservation efforts, including: gorgeous wood interior trim and accents, original painted ceiling motif in the dining room, original brick pass-through fireplace, unique barrel vault ceilings, and historically accurate upgrades like the windows and front porch. With 10-foot ceilings, large windows, and a fresh coat of neutral paint, this home feels spacious, bright, and inviting. The main living area has been opened up so you can truly appreciate and utilize the space. The primary bedroom has an ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower and large vanity. The second bathroom is at the rear of the home with a tub/shower combo, and the stackable washer and dryer that come with the home are also located in the second bathroom. The chef's kitchen features double ovens, a Thermidor gas range, counter-depth Subzero refrigerator, granite counters, undermount double-bowl sink, an abundance of cabinets, and plenty of natural light from multiple windows. The fully fenced yard has tall oak trees that provide shade and privacy in the backyard. Because this is a corner lot, it feels like a quarter acre homesite. There is a large wooden deck at the back of the home, as well as thoughtfully upgraded features and landscaping throughout the yard. There is also a pre-plumb for gas to hook up an outside grill. Separate to the home, there is a shed with A/C currently being used as an office. The 2-car covered carport has a garage door so your car can be closed off from the street. There is also a 3rd car garage space currently being used as a workshop, but with some adjustments could easily be a space for a 3rd car. While this home is completely renovated and move-in ready, there is still so much potential to make it even more - specifically by using the upstairs as a rental income generating space as the attic has been turned into a mother-in-law suite/ADU style suite. With a bedroom, full bathroom, and separate sitting room, plus its own AC unit, this area could be used as either a short or long term rental income producing unit. The layout of the first floor of the home allows for private entrance to the upstairs unit without disturbing whoever is downstairs, and the new owner could choose to specifically block off access to the main home by adding just two walls to the current layout configuration. This home is located only two blocks from some of Seminole Height's best restaurants - including The C House and Front Porch/Bart's Tavern. Publix Supermarket and the nearest I-275 exit are .5 miles away, Lowry Park & Zoo Tampa are 2 miles away, and Epps Park with access to the Hillsborough River is 1 mile away. Within a ten minute drive you will also find: Al Lopez Park, the River Walk, Downtown Tampa, Armature Works, Ybor City, and the University of South Florida. Tampa Airport is only a 15 minute drive. This home is in one of the best locations in all of Tampa Bay for providing quick and easy access to all the area has to offer. The downstairs AC was replaced in 2023 and the upstairs AC was added with the renovation in 2021. The gas tankless hot water heater is newer and the home has a metal roof.
