Description of Property
Fall in love with this beautifully restored 1920s Seminole Heights bungalow! A wide, welcoming front porch invites relaxed evenings and friendly conversation along one of the neighborhood’s most picturesque cobblestone streets. Inside, this 2-bedroom, 2-bath charmer blends timeless character with thoughtful updates, offering a move-in-ready home filled with natural light and warmth. Last year, the home underwent an extensive restoration true to its historic roots. The original novelty wood siding was uncovered beneath layers of aluminum, carefully repaired, sanded, and freshly painted in an authentic historic color palette. Every window was restored—re-roped, fitted with new brass hardware, and complemented by custom exterior screens and clear storm panels for durability. The front porch was fully rebuilt, with reinforced beams and premium 3-inch KDAT tongue-and-groove decking designed to last for decades. Rafter tails were artfully exposed and even featured on a historic homes website, underscoring the craftsmanship and attention to detail throughout. Recent updates enhance both comfort and peace of mind, including a new roof (2020), refinished and painted kitchen cabinets (2023), and fresh landscaping and fencing (2024). The detached 320-square-foot garage offers abundant storage and flexible use for hobbies or a workshop. The wide-open living spaces, showcase gorgeous original hardwood floors and mid-century style light fixtures. They flow seamlessly into a large kitchen, featuring a pull-out pantry and French doors leading to the back porch, giving an indoor/outdoor feel. The spacious screened back porch provides the perfect place to relax year-round—whether you’re enjoying morning coffee, evening breezes, or hosting friends while overlooking the lush backyard. The master bedroom features a private bathroom, with a custom shower and additional closet. Both bathrooms have their own 1920’s flare with period tile. The fully fenced backyard offers plenty of room to garden, entertain, or unwind beneath mature shade trees, and includes multiple fruit-bearing trees—bananas, papayas, and mangos—creating a private tropical retreat right at home. Other edible plants include a kaffir lime tree, lemon tree, hibiscus plant, and lemongrass. Located in the heart of Seminole Heights, you’ll be walking distance from beloved local favorites— DI Coffee, The C House, Rooster & Till, Valhalla Resale, Gulf Coast Sourdough, among other fantastic cocktail bars and breweries—all with quick access to I-275 for easy commuting across Tampa Bay. Walk or bike to riverfront parks or the Seminole Garden Center or take a quick stroll to the Farmer’s Market and other holiday events held at the Seminole Heights UMC. Come experience the charm, history, and community that make this one of Tampa’s most sought-after and character-filled neighborhoods.
