Nestled in the coveted Bay?Crest Park community, this classic 1963 ranch-style waterfront home at 8708 Thornwood Lane offers a rare blend of Florida charm and renovation-ready potential. Boasting 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and 2,073?sq?ft of open-concept living space on an 8,140?sq?ft lot, this property features coveted canal frontage with a seawall, covered boat lift, in-ground gunite pool and spa, and a metal roof replaced just three years ago—along with new HVAC, pool pump, and re-plumbing. Perfectly sited for boating to Tampa Bay or a sunset swim from your dock, the home retains travertine bathrooms and flexible living areas awaiting your personal finishing touches—but with the structural essentials already in place. HOA is optional and grants access to community boat ramp, holiday boat parades, and neighborhood social events—all just minutes from Tampa International Airport, downtown, and major expressways.
