Description
Welcome home! Waterfront living meets timeless design in this beautifully refreshed mid-century style farmhouse. Set on a private 0.35-acre lot with over 100 feet of Hillsborough River frontage, this exceptional property offers a rare opportunity to enjoy peaceful waterfront living just minutes from the heart of Tampa. Located outside the flood zone and unaffected by recent hurricanes, it provides the peace of mind that's becoming increasingly difficult to find. Inside, an open-concept layout is designed to maximize natural light and picturesque river views. The beautifully updated kitchen features white shaker cabinetry, a large center island, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a stainless steel range hood, farmhouse sink, and a recently updated backsplash. Porcelain tile flows throughout the home, while the inviting living room is centered around a brick wood-burning fireplace and overlooks both the screened saltwater pool and the Hillsborough River beyond. The primary suite also enjoys tranquil river views and a beautifully updated ensuite bathroom. Designed for effortless indoor-outdoor living, the backyard is a private waterfront retreat. Enjoy a screened, solar-heated saltwater pool with a sun shelf, waterfall, and fountain, a spacious patio for entertaining, a fire pit, composite dock, lush new irrigation, and a fully fenced yard with double gate access for convenient boat or RV storage. Whether you're spending the day on the water or relaxing poolside, this property was made to embrace the Florida lifestyle. Additional improvements include a 2025 HVAC system, 2017 roof, double-pane windows, fresh interior paint, cosmetic updates throughout, a whole-house water softener, and a spacious two-car garage, making this home truly move-in ready. Whether you're searching for a primary residence, a luxury second home, or an income-producing investment, this property offers exceptional versatility. It previously generated over $100,000 in gross Airbnb revenue in 2019, highlighting its proven short-term rental potential. Ideally located just minutes from Downtown Tampa, Armature Works, Ybor City, Busch Gardens, and some of the area's best dining, shopping, and entertainment, this home offers the perfect balance of privacy, convenience, and waterfront living. Opportunities to own over 100 feet of Hillsborough River frontage outside a flood zone are exceptionally rare. Schedule your private showing today.
