About this home
Welcome to this beautifully preserved 1926 Craftsman bungalow in the heart of Seminole Heights. Blending historic charm with modern upgrades, this 2-bedroom, 2-bath home features an inviting front porch, a freshly painted exterior, and beautiful hardwood floors throughout. Inside, open living and dining spaces are filled with natural light, accented by wood ceiling beams and a charming decorative fireplace. Elegant chandeliers in the dining room, master bedroom, and guest bath add timeless character. The spacious kitchen flows seamlessly from the dining area and features generous cabinetry along with a large peninsula counter with bar seating, perfect for entertaining. French doors lead to a large back porch, extending the living space outdoors, where a fully fenced backyard provides room for pets, play, or your own private outdoor retreat. Both bedrooms have been freshly painted. The primary bedroom includes an en-suite bathroom, while the guest bath features a stunning claw-foot tub. Step outside and experience Seminole Heights, one of Tampa’s most vibrant neighborhoods. Walk to local coffee shops, breweries, and beloved family-owned restaurants. Just minutes away, enjoy game days with the Buccaneers, spring training with the Yankees, and hockey nights cheering on the Tampa Bay Lightning. Explore the Tampa Riverwalk, dine at Michelin-recognized restaurants, visit Armature Works, or commute easily to Tampa Bay’s beautiful beaches, major hospital systems, and top-rated schools. *New Roof installed March, 2026
