About This Property
Built in 1934 and thoughtfully updated over the years, this Craftsman-style bungalow offers the charm and character Tampa is known for, paired with the comfort and functionality of modern living. With 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a spacious backyard, and a central location just minutes from Seminole Heights, this home offers plenty to enjoy both inside and out. Major updates include a roof and gutters replaced in 2024, hurricane-rated double-pane windows, and an A/C system installed in 2022. Step inside to fresh interior paint and an inviting open-concept layout where the living room flows naturally into the dining area and kitchen, creating a comfortable setup for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen comes with concrete countertops, stainless steel appliances, wood cabinetry, open shelving, and a modern backsplash that adds just the right amount of character. The owner’s suite features a private ensuite bathroom with an updated vanity and modern walk-in shower. Two additional bedrooms offer great flexibility for guests, a home office, or additional living space, with a nearby guest bathroom. Out back, sliding glass doors open to a deck overlooking the oversized, fully fenced yard. Whether you’re entertaining, enjoying a quiet morning coffee, or envisioning a future garden, firepit area, or outdoor retreat, there is plenty of room to make the space your own. The location adds even more appeal. Seminole Heights cafés, brunch spots, and locally owned restaurants are just a short drive away. Armature Works, the Tampa Riverwalk, Water Works Park, Downtown Tampa, and historic Ybor City are all within easy reach, and nearby I-275 provides convenient access throughout Tampa Bay. A classic Tampa bungalow with character, updates, outdoor space, and a location that keeps you close to some of the city’s most popular destinations.
