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. The front porch, painted in traditional Haint Blue, adds to the home’s timeless charm—a Southern touch long believed to bring good luck, protection, and welcoming energy. Enjoy morning coffee from the swing, birdwatching, or simply soaking in the neighborhood’s 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 completely PAID-OFF solar panels ([2018]), 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—this is a home imbued with welcoming charm and positive energy, the kind of property that rarely comes to market.
