Description

This property is no longer available to rent or to buy. This description is from May 21, 2023
This new listing in Seminole Heights will WOW you from the moment you step off the brick-lined street! This historic, craftsman bungalow in Seminole Heights will fit your every need without the pricing of other Tampa neighborhoods. Fern Street is one of the quietest streets in Seminole Heights with some of the trendiest restaurants within walking distance. Go for brunch at “Trip’s Diner” and choose the HubCakes, then go for drinks at “The “C” house” and order the Circumstantial Evidence cocktail; ask them to add amaretto cherries for added pleasure, then choose the Grilled Chicken Chicken + Plantain Nachos entrée at Mekenita’s. Every surface on the interior of this home has been touched and altered to make this your perfect home. Instead of the customary 2 BD/1Bath bungalow, this home has been updated to a 3 BD/2 BA while being open and offering tons of natural light throughout the house. The front patio offers a new, oversize porch area to sit outside and watch the great Tampa sunsets and visit with neighbors. The million-dollar red door opens to a bright and open breezeway with bonus "double" closet storage. Walk into the inviting family/living room offering tons of NATURAL light centered by a traditional Shiplap accent wall with working electric fireplace that blows cool and warm air! New “wood-like” ceramic tile flooring, 5 1/4" baseboards, fresh interior and exterior paint, new light features, and pantry and closet shelving lead into your open, gourmet kitchen with additional eat-in space centered by new quartz countertops and soft-close 42" Shaker cabinets hand fitted in perfect form. Enjoy your new stainless-steel appliances and kitchen sink big enough to clean your produce from the local farmer's market and everyday use. As you move down the long, extended hallway you have the first and second bedrooms, bathroom, laundry room, and master bedroom with en-suite bathroom. The first full bath shares the same quartz counter tops and Shaker soft close cabinets for that spa-like energy. Find your dedicated laundry room adjacent to rear exit for easy access to a private, secondary “WFH”, artistic, or homeschool space with working a/c and electric. Leading down the hall ends with the master bedroom with 3 huge windows flooding the room with natural light and an open backyard for your private get-away needs. Enjoy your en-suite bathroom accented with a delicious, deep earthy color tile in your walk-in shower illuminated with a side window. The exterior has been given a complete make-over as well with a secondary shed that can turn into your private "WFH" space, artistic loft, or homeschool pod. Attached to the secondary dwelling is an outdoor workspace for your lawn and garden needs. The yard has been landscaped to include tree-trimming, drought-resistant plants, and newly graded front lawn planted with sod. Additional exterior features include new lighting, new exterior paint, new composite wood decking on front porch/stairs, side porch/stairs, and newly laid extended driveway. This is a must-see home!
