Description

Enchanting vintage style farmhouse from the days when Seminole Heights was still dotted with citrus, dairy and stands of pine trees. Public records officially date the home as 1925, but the original floor plan predates the bungalow craze of the 1920's. The front porch is 34 feet wide and flanks both sides of the entry for relaxing on cool evenings with friends and neighbors. Currently set up as 3 bedrooms/3 full bathrooms plus an office. The original first floor has heart pine floors. The original 2nd floor hall and bedrooms have carpet or laminate flooring. The sunroom and addition were originally built as in-law quarters with skylights and vaulted beadboard ceiling as beautiful architectural design features. Today it is an expansive primary owner's suite with its own kitchenette, but it could revert to a private space for aging parents or guests. The en suite bath features a walk-in shower. The original first floor bedroom has been repurposed into a fabulous home office loaded with floor to ceiling drawers and shelving. The living room is just off the entry foyer, and the adjoining dining room features a wood burning fireplace. The charming kitchen features custom cabinetry, tile countertop, stainless appliances, and a pantry closet. There is a large laundry room at one in the sunroom and a huge walk-in multi-use closet at the other end. The second-floor features 2 spacious bedrooms and a full 2nd floor bathroom. The property features multivehicle paver parking, quaint picket fence enclosed yard, and a paver patio. The durable 10-year-old metal roof adds to the charm while its durability offers peace of mind for decades to come. Electric and Plumbing have been updated. This historic home nestled in the urban oasis of Seminole Heights is convenient to USF and UT, hospitals, entertainment, restaurants and less than 20 minutes to the airport. Located just blocks from several waterfront parks on the Hillsborough River with access for canoeing and kayaking or just watching manatees. Come discover your dream home with a historic vibe.
