What the seller loves about this home:
The location. Walk out the front door and in one minute you are jogging, cycling, or skating along Bayshore Boulevard. Great bay views from patio, second floor balcony, and East facing second floor master bedroom window. Classic, timeless architecture – one of the most unique designs in South Tampa. The house is minutes from Hyde Park, South Howard Street, and downtown Tampa's many cultural venues. Grocery stores and fabulous restaurants are close by and the Tampa airport is a 15-20-minute drive. The pool is beautiful, easy to maintain and just right for elegant entertaining. There are antique chandeliers throughout reflecting the period of the house, while an abundance of natural light streams in daily through the 2nd story atrium. You will not want to miss out on this one-of-a-kind historical home. It is truly a home to treasure!
