About this House

Classic Florida ranch style home sits on a rare .76-acre lot in the heart of Brandon. This solid block home with brick façade offers space, flexibility, and peace of mind with major updates already completed — including a 2022 roof, 2019 HVAC, cast iron plumbing replacement (2020), and new well pump and tank (2024). The functional 3-bedroom, 2-bath layout features 1,551 sq ft of living space and a thoughtfully upgraded primary bath with roll-in shower, ideal for accessibility or aging-in-place. Enjoy both a covered front porch and a screened back porch with new screening (2023) overlooking the expansive backyard. Outdoor living continues with an above-ground pool with deck, umbrella, and upgraded steps, perfect for relaxing or entertaining. Parking and storage are a standout with a 2-car garage, 4+ car driveway, and plenty of room for an RV, boat, trailer, or work vehicles — all with NO HOA. The oversized lot offers privacy, usability, and endless possibilities rarely found in this location. Conveniently located near Downtown Tampa, the Riverwalk, Tampa International Airport, MacDill AFB, Raymond James Stadium, shopping, dining, and entertainment — plus easy access to Florida’s Gulf Coast beaches. A rare opportunity to own land, freedom, and long-term value in an established neighborhood.
