Nestled beneath a striking canopy of grand trees on a picturesque tree lined street and located in the storied Hampton Terrace Neighborhood in Old Seminole Heights, is this gorgeous 3 bed 2 bath classic bungalow with detached garage. Sauntering up the front walkway, and past a lovingly landscaped yard you arrive at your wrap around front porch, a most desirable attribute in a craftsman bungalow. While you ponder making memories visiting friends, neighbors and family whilst sipping a frosty beverage during the summer months or a lovely spot of hot tea during the mild Florida winters- don't stop there because beyond the front door there is so much more to see. Pride of ownership is on display through this entire meticulously maintained home and property. As you enter the home into the formal living room, you will immediately notice the sunlight bouncing off beautiful heart pine floors, a cozy wood burning fireplace flanked by original built in shelves and stained glass windows to either side of the mantel. Continuing is your formal dining room, a perfect location for dinner parties and gatherings and a timeless galley kitchen with a quaint eat-in space just to the rear. Downstairs off the main hallway is your laundry closet, two sizeable bedrooms, each with ample closet space and a full remodeled bathroom with shower. The entire upstairs is your owner's retreat. A huge bedroom area perfectly sized for a California King Sized bed, gives way to an awesome private den perfect for quiet nights with a good book or catching a movie on the tube. The large ensuite features dual vanities and a large shower. There is simply so much to love in this home, including the artfully placed stained glass window accents throughout. Back downstairs and outside is a newly resurfaced deck that overlooks a truly beautiful, landscaped yard full of the flora and fauna that tropical Florida is known for. A ribbon driveway travels through a quintessential bungalow porte' cochere and right up to your detached garage. There are so many awesome updates to this home as well featuring a NEW ROOF in NOVEMBER 2022, NEW ELECTRICAL PANEL in 2023, TANKLESS GAS WATER HEATER, (2) HVAC SYSTEMS installed in 2020 and 2021, NEW SEWER LINE to the city and a FRESH EXTERIOR PAINT JOB in 2023 plus a TERMITE BOND/WARRANTY that is transferable to the new owner. This home is timeless and marvelous in so many ways within a community full of exciting neighborhood events and the renowned Lake Roberta home to captivating wildlife, and the backdrop for gorgeous southern sunsets. You are literally minutes from great restaurants and retail, the vibrant energy of downtown Tampa, the award-winning Tampa International Airport, the famed Gulf Beaches and so much more.
