BUYER CHANGED THEIR MIND! In Tampa’s historic district of Old Seminole Heights, this lovely home is surrounded by nothing but private residences in the parklike setting of Hampton Terrace. Totally renovated with no surface left untouched. Walking up to the front door, you will get a sense of the fine materials used throughout. The porch is lined with new decorative tiling giving the entrance the character of luxury in a by-gone era.
Come inside to find the living room that is spacious and focused on the large triple window and the fine original woodwork that flows into the dining room. Two of the bedrooms, flooded with sunlight, are privately situated with the new laundry closet and luxury bath that is outfitted with a large tiled walk-in shower. Soft colors provide a neutral backdrop that give the space the warmth.
On the other side of the home, you will find the spacious kitchen with more large windows for natural light, new cabinets and appliances, granite countertops, and a stainless-steel island currently set up as a coffee bar. The flooring throughout the house has all been updated as well, as are the lighting and totally new HVAC system.
But to your delight, step out the back door to see there is an independent 400 SF guest house for visitors, or to be used as your peaceful home office. This comes complete with new roof, new flooring, new kitchen and new lighting as well. An independent cottage would not be complete without its own laundry which you will find in the two-story shed just steps away with ample space to store your excess. The lush back yard has plenty of room for entertaining or playing games and there are specimen plantings both in front and in back. A quick five-minute walk down the block will have you strolling with your neighbors around the tranquil setting of two-acre Lake Roberta.
Soon you will agree that there is no need to over pay for a newly built home when this gem has more charm and every new feature you can imagine at half the price?
