RIVERFRONT RECREATION, GATED SECURITY, COUNTLESS CONVENIENCES and the community's lowest fees for a no-maintenance lifestyle! That's what you get with this 2-story, 2-bedroom, 2-bath condo in River Oaks, a longtime favorite along the Hillsborough River just south of Temple Terrace! Come home to tree-shaded grounds, neighborhood-only pools, even a floating dock for canoe and kayak launch without sacrificing easy access to shops, services, schools, entertainment and so much more around Tampa. Enjoy it all knowing your personal water and waste utilities, pest control, and exterior maintenance from roof to grounds are covered by a monthly fee that also includes the 24-hour guarded entry, community insurance, and a designated carport spot along with additional parking. River Oaks has several sections with their own homeowner associations, and this part has the smallest monthly fee at $502. The home itself makes the most of 1,407 SF by including a second-story loft atop a spiral staircase that can be a third bedroom, private office, or flexible work / play area that extends through a closet door to spacious attic storage. The first floor, meanwhile, expands with sliders from the living room and kitchen to a screened balcony porch overlooking a big back yard shared with your cluster of neighbors. Kitchen, living and dining rooms here are large; in fact, the current owners set their cafe space in the kitchen and use the dining room for other purposes. The living room boasts a soaring ceiling because of the loft design, and its style features both the staircase and a wood-burning, stove-type fireplace. The main floor is tiled everywhere except the carpeted bedrooms, which both have front-facing windows, and the owner's suite includes a walk-in closet. There's a small laundry room at one end of the porch, and the community is pet-friendly. Arrange your visit today to see if this is the life for you within this affordable price range!
