One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Picture-perfect South Tampa Craftsman with the lot size everyone is looking for. Set beneath a canopy of mature oak trees in the coveted Bayshore Beautiful neighborhood, this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home sits on an expansive nearly quarter-acre lot (65’ x 140’) with a long driveway leading to a detached 2-car garage and a truly oversized backyard—rare for this area and ready for a pool, expansion, or both. The wraparound porch sets the tone—classic, quiet, and made for slowing down. Think evening breezes, the sound of cicadas, and a place that feels like home before you even step inside. Through the glass-pane front door, you’re welcomed into a warm living space anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, with a flowing layout that connects to a family room and easy access back out to the porch. A powder bath is tucked conveniently on the main level. The formal dining room is framed by timeless Craftsman-style colonnades—defining the space while keeping it open—perfect for displaying books, art, or simply keeping conversation connected. Beyond, the kitchen offering gas/“dual fuel” cook top and breakfast dinette overlook the deep backyard, offering both function today and clear potential for those who want to reimagine the space entirely. The first-floor primary suite provides privacy and convenience, with direct access to the porch—ideal for morning coffee or a quiet reset at the end of the day. Upstairs, two generously sized bedrooms share a semi-private Jack-and-Jill bath, offering flexibility for guests, family, or work-from-home needs. Major updates include a metal roof (2019) and two AC systems (2020). Located in Flood Zone X—no flood insurance required. Positioned just minutes from everything that defines South Tampa living: the iconic Bayshore Boulevard Linear Park, top-rated Ballast Point Elementary School, waterfront afternoons at Ballast Point Park, and the option to join Tampa Yacht and Country Club just down the road
