About this home
Welcome to this beautifully renovated Cape Cod home in New Suburb Beautiful—one of Tampa’s most cherished, historic neighborhoods, celebrated for its tree-canopied streets, walkability, and strong sense of community. Built in 1946 and offering approximately 2,550 sq ft, this well-maintained two-story residence blends timeless character with extensive modern upgrades.
Inside, a welcoming foyer features a custom, upholstered window seat. The spacious living room accommodates multiple furniture configurations; such as living room and dining room, office, etc... and includes a fireplace (decorative-only), built-in bookcase, architectural details, and French doors. The large, well-appointed kitchen offers granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a new refrigerator/freezer, and abundant natural light and a generous eat-in area that could be the home's dining room. Adjacent to the kitchen, the large, cozy family room includes built-in shelving and overlooks the stunning backyard and pool.
Nearly every major component has been updated: new roof, impact windows and doors, updated electrical, all new water lines and fully recoated sewer lines, plumbing fixtures, new washer and dryer, water heater, water softener, irrigation system, fresh interior and exterior paint, expanded front walk with porcelain pavers, new custom fencing and trellises, and more—delivering classic charm without the typical concerns of an older home. Proactive upgrades to the structure of the home include addition of smart jacks throughout and a full enclosure of the crawl space with a dehumidifier and sump pump for long term peace of mind.
The recently updated pool area features a new travertine deck, sun shelf with bubbler and umbrella holder, PebbleTec surface, all new equipment including filter, pump, heater, lighting, and plumbing, and refreshed landscaping. An outdoor shower and two secure storage areas add convenience. The spacious laundry room is bright and airy and also serves as a mudroom/pool entry.
Upstairs, a charming loft and large storage closet lead to the tranquil primary suite, which overlooks the pool and includes two generous closets. The ensuite primary bath offers separate vanities, a soaking tub, and a walk-in shower. Two additional sun-filled bedrooms share a full bath with tub/shower. A versatile bonus room is ideal for a nursery, office, workout space, or hobby room.
New Suburb Beautiful is one of Tampa’s most beloved neighborhoods, known for its community events, sidewalks, and optional HOA that enhances security and neighborhood engagement. Ideally located between MacDill and Howard Avenue, you’re only moments from top restaurants, shopping, Hyde Park Village, Tampa International Airport, downtown, Water Street, iconic Bayshore Boulevard, and some of the area’s best schools.Zone X—no flood insurance required and no water intrusion from the past two hurricanes.
