Property Description

Under contract-accepting backup offers. Picture-perfect Craftsman Bungalow nestled on nearly 1/4 acre in South Seminole Heights, offering timeless charm and impeccable curb appeal. Set back from the street, this home welcomes you with a cozy front porch and a peaceful screened side porch tucked just around the corner—perfect spots to unwind. Located on a quaint, quiet street yet only minutes from I-275, you’ll enjoy easy access to some of the area’s best dining and breweries. Walking or biking to local favorites is a breeze. Step inside to a bright, open floor plan that blends the large eat-in kitchen with a warm and inviting family room. An additional flexible living space makes an ideal office, play area, or reading nook. The two spacious bedrooms are filled with natural light, one featuring a walk-in closet and the other offering two closets for ample storage. Original glass doorknobs and classic plaster walls highlight the home’s authentic Craftsman character, while rich Dark Hickory luxury laminate flooring elevates the main living areas. The beautifully updated bathroom includes a newer vanity, stylish lighting, and eye-catching mosaic tile flooring. Interior laundry with a full-size stackable washer and dryer adds convenience. Outside is where this home truly shines. Sitting on nearly a 1/4 acre, the fully fenced backyard offers endless possibilities, plenty of room for gardening, outdoor living areas, a play set, pets, or even space to add a pool. A storage shed provides extra room for tools and equipment, and the expansive lot accommodates RV or boat parking with ease. Even better, the backyard offers alley access, making parking, unloading, or future projects incredibly convenient. Just blocks away you’ll find The Independent, Angry Chair Brewery, Spaddy’s Coffee, local shops, and a neighborhood park. Situated outside the flood zone yet only a short stroll to the waterfront at Rivercrest Park, you can enjoy sunsets, fishing docks, a canoe launch, picnic areas, a playground, and over a mile of scenic walking trails. Armature Works and the Tampa Riverwalk are just 2 miles away, while Downtown Tampa and Curtis Hixon Park, Al Lopez Park, Ybor City, and Raymond James Stadium are all within 3 miles. This central location truly puts you close to it all.
