**Second chance! Previous buyer’s financing failed—don’t miss this one.** Welcome to 1023 N Bask Dr., a warm and welcoming Wellswood retreat where thoughtful UPDATES and timeless comfort come together. Perfect for DOWNSIZERS or FIRST TIME buyers, this home offers a “just right” blend of character, efficiency, and low maintenance living. Step inside to an inviting living room featuring a cozy stone fireplace, wood accented walls, and abundant natural light. In 2021, the flooring and floor joists in primary and great room were replaced, walls and ceilings were freshly painted, and interior doors were updated, giving the home a clean, refreshed feel. UPDATED luxury vinyl plank flooring (2021 & 2025) flows throughout for durability and easy care. The kitchen continues the theme of simplicity and function with 2017 cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless-steel appliances. Everyday living is made even easier with an UPDATED electric RANGE, 2022 refrigerator, and 2021 countertops. A flexible dining area sits just off the kitchen—ideal for daily meals or converting into an additional FLEX space. One of the home’s standout features is the expansive SCREENED LANAI. With wood ceilings, multiple seating zones, and peaceful views of the backyard, it’s a true outdoor retreat. The fenced yard offers mature trees, stone pathways, and space for gardening, pets, or hobbies. For those needing a WORKSHOP, HOBBY AREA, or STORAGE, the oversized 1 car garage delivers. The extended driveway and carport provide convenient COVERED parking and easy access. This home has been meticulously maintained with an UPDATED 2017 HVAC, NEW 2025 electric water heater, IMPACT RESISTANT windows, and NO FLOOD insurance required. The encapsulated crawlspace includes a dehumidifier that keeps humidity low and improves AC efficiency, adding comfort and long term protection. Additional perks include decked attic storage, a termite warranty, and well kept exterior systems. LOCATION is another major highlight—within five miles you’ll find Tampa’s best: the Riverwalk, Armature Works, Lowry Park Zoo, Al Lopez Park, and Seminole Heights favorites like Rooster & the Till, Trip’s Diner, and Independent Bar & Café, plus a vibrant mix of local restaurants and coffee shops. Homes with this level of care, comfort, and flexibility rarely come available. Experience the peaceful lifestyle waiting for you at 1023 N Bask Dr. Seller Motivated!!!
