Rare South Tampa treasure in the Plant High School District. Originally built in 1945, this saltwater pool home was fully expanded and remodeled in 2012, giving you the best of both worlds—historic charm paired with the peace of mind of modern updates. Major systems including electrical, plumbing, sewer, roof, kitchen, and baths were all renewed, so everything feels fresh, solid, and carefully maintained. The front yard is a natural Florida haven, with plantings that draw birds, butterflies, and wildlife—creating a sanctuary you and your neighbors will appreciate. Enjoy morning coffee from the swing, birdwatching or simply soaking in the neighborhood’s timeless character, all while being right in the heart of the city. Inside, soaring ceilings, open living spaces, and 2021 hurricane-rated windows and doors bring comfort, safety, and a quiet retreat. Designed for easy living, the home includes owned 2018 solar panels, a full-house automatic generator (2018), a gas tankless water heater (2012), and a saltwater pool originally built in 2003 and beautifully remodeled in 2016. The poolside cabana with fireplace (2014) sets the stage for cozy evenings under the stars. Even better—you’re in an X flood zone, high and dry, with year-round peace of mind. The backyard oasis makes every day feel like a private getaway, while just minutes away you’ll find the best dining, shopping, and lifestyle South Tampa has to offer. Loved, upgraded, and surrounded by nature—homes like this rarely come to market.
