This award-winning South Seminole Heights home—recipient of the 2022 Beautification Award—is a true gem offering both timeless charm and contemporary updates, plus rare eligibility for short-term rental use (buyer to verify local regulations), making it ideal for those seeking Airbnb or investment potential in one of Tampa’s most desirable historic districts. Nestled on a quiet, tree-lined street, the home features restored wood siding (2020), a freshly painted exterior (2021), and a custom front staircase that exudes curb appeal. A double-wide paver driveway, nearly unheard of in Seminole Heights, provides parking for up to six cars in front and three in back, offering unmatched convenience for entertaining. Inside, the 1925 original hardwood floors gleam beneath fresh interior paint (2024), while built-in bookshelves frame a functioning wood-burning fireplace with a closable cap (cleaned 2023), surrounded by crystal doorknobs and period details that capture the home’s vintage soul. The updated kitchen combines classic style with modern finishes, featuring premium vinyl flooring (2024) and a brand-new stainless steel appliance suite (2025). Thoughtful upgrades throughout include popcorn ceiling removal (2024), new washer and dryer (2023), a 25-year roof (2017), and a new 3-ton HVAC system with all-new ducting (2024) and air handler relocated to the attic to maximize storage. With three bedrooms and one bath, this home lives large, blending character and function in perfect harmony. Outside, enjoy the walkable lifestyle that defines Seminole Heights living, with parks, coffee shops, award-winning restaurants, breweries, and the Tampa Riverwalk just minutes away. Combining historic beauty, thoughtful renovations, and investment opportunity, this Tampa bungalow for sale offers the best of old-world charm and modern-day convenience in one of the city’s most cherished neighborhoods.
