About this home
Welcome to one of South Tampa’s most iconic streets, where location and lifestyle come together seamlessly. Just moments from Tampa Bay Yacht Club, Ballast Point Park, and the entrance to the Bayshore Boulevard Fitness Trail, this residence also enjoys the rare convenience of being only one block from A-rated Ballast Point Elementary School. Rich in character and history, the surrounding neighborhood even carries ties to the legendary author Jules Verne—an added layer of charm for those who appreciate a story behind the setting.
A welcoming wraparound front porch sets the tone, delivering timeless curb appeal with a modern farmhouse aesthetic. Through the leaded glass front door, a spacious front-facing office with glass-pane double sliders offers a bright and refined work-from-home environment. Inside, newly installed luxury vinyl plank flooring flows throughout the main living areas, combining durability with a clean, contemporary feel. The kitchen is thoughtfully designed for both everyday living and entertaining, featuring abundant cabinetry with soft-close doors and drawers, convenient pull-outs, granite countertops, a tile backsplash, and 42-inch upper cabinets that maximize storage and visual height.
The open-concept layout allows the kitchen to transition effortlessly into a generously sized dining area, easily accommodating large gatherings with seating for up to ten. French doors with sidelights draw in natural light and create a seamless connection to the rear screened entertainment deck, where translucent polycarbonate panels allow sunlight to pour in while keeping the space protected from rain—extending usability year-round. The true centerpiece of the home is the grand family room, where soaring 25-foot ceilings and three tiers of oversized windows frame breathtaking views of Ballast Point’s signature oak canopy, creating a light-filled space that feels both expansive and connected to nature.
Upstairs, the primary suite is privately tucked away behind French doors, offering a peaceful retreat complete with a spacious walk-in closet with custom built-ins and a well-appointed bathroom featuring dual vanities, a soaking tub, and a separate shower. Two additional bedrooms provide flexibility for family or guests, one enhanced with charming window seats and the other showcasing a cathedral ceiling, both sharing access to an updated hall bath.
Outdoor living continues to impress with a large covered and screened party deck that connects effortlessly to the main living areas, ideal for entertaining or relaxing in comfort. A side-entry driveway leads to a detached two-car garage with overhead storage and convenient access to the covered rear lanai. The home’s exterior is wrapped in durable James Hardie fiber cement siding, offering long-term resilience with the aesthetic appeal of a modern farmhouse. The expansive front and side yards present endless opportunities to create a private outdoor oasis, whether envisioned as a garden, play area, or alfresco dining retreat.
Recent updates, including a 2020 shingle roof, 2021 gutters and kitchen cabinetry, 2021 LVP flooring, a 2023 vinyl fence, and a 2023 HVAC system, provide peace of mind and enhance the home’s overall value. Positioned at a high elevation with no history of flooding, this property offers both beauty and confidence in its construction and location. This is a rare opportunity to own an updated home in one of South Tampa’s most sought-after neighborhoods....
