MULTIPLE OFFERS RECEIVED, HIGHEST AND BEST DUE SUNDAY 8/10 7PM. Welcome to the Mid Century Modern Bungalow: A rare blend of craftsman charm + mid-century soul, on one of the biggest lots in the neighborhood. Set on a rare 75x122 lot-and-a-half in the heart of Old Seminole Heights, this custom-renovated 1925 Craftsman Bungalow is NOT your average historic home. Thoughtfully updated and full of charm and personality, it combines the warmth of a classic bungalow with clean mid-century design vibes—and a DREAMY backyard. From the moment you pull up, you’ll notice the difference. A porte-cochère with trellis detail, lush landscaping, & paver driveway give the home that show-stopping curb appeal that homebuyers dream of. Mature oaks & brick streets complete the picture-perfect setting in one of Tampa’s most sought out neighborhoods. Inside, sunlight pours through restored sash windows, highlighting original wood floors & a cozy fireplace. The open living/dining spaces flow into a stunning custom kitchen featuring walnut cabinetry, concrete countertops, floating shelves, new zellige backsplash, stainless appliances—including a brand new dishwasher, natural gas cooktop, and built-in wall oven & microwave. A bright bay window and built-in spice storage add extra charm and light to the space. The layout is flexible, with a front bedroom (currently styled with custom barn doors as a second living space w/ sleeper sofa to easily convert to guest room) perfect for guests, an office, playroom, or additional living space. Tucked in the back, the vaulted-ceiling primary suite is separate from the rest of the house, complete with unique transom window & spa-like ensuite bath with subway tile and walk-in shower. The guest bath feels like a piece of art—featuring a skylit shower, cast iron soaker tub, penny tile, and a custom floating vanity with epoxy wood ribbon detail. A HUGE bonus? The backyard. The side yard has been cleared of trees and prepped for a future pool, garage, or ADU, & owners already have plans, renderings & quotes for a resort-style pool. You’ll love the already-finished 800sqft paver patio with a built-in bar (gas line, fridge, and kegerator-ready), a natural gas fire pit, and lush tropical landscaping. Automated lighting, a rain chain gutter system, & fence complete the low-maintenance setup. There's even a large storage shed and a brand new stacked smart Samsung washer/dryer in the revamped laundry room/mudroom. Major system updates include: 2020 HVAC (recently serviced), 2019 tankless gas water heater, 2019 new water line, updated electrical & plumbing, 2012 durable metal roof, functional original windows with new screens + custom hurricane fabric shutters. Enjoy living around the corner from local favorites like The Salty Donut, Trip’s Diner, Ology Brewing, Gulf Coast Sourdough, Rooster & the Till, The C House, and The Front Porch—or spend weekends at Epps Park, Henry & Ola Dog Park, or on the Hillsborough River just down the street (with boat launch 5 minutes away). Just minutes to downtown Tampa, the airport, Armature Works, the Tampa Riverwalk, Ybor City and the new GasWorx development, the Channel District and Water street, and South Tampa, this home offers the perfect mix of character, location, and long-term potential. Bonus: Buyers using seller’s preferred lender may qualify for a closing cost/rate buy down incentive (inquire with agent for more details). Make the Mid Century Modern Bungalow your new Seminole Heights home!
