Rare opportunity to own in desirable South Tampa! Authentic 2BR/1BA 1925 bungalow paired with a beautifully designed and built detached accessory structure tucked behind the main home—an exceptional and hard-to-find combination. The accessory structure offers excellent flexibility—ideal for extended family, guests, or a private workspace. Buyer to verify all potential uses with the City of Tampa.
From the moment you arrive, the charm is undeniable, featuring a rustic arbor, picket fence, lush landscaping, and a fully fenced yard. The exterior has been recently stripped and repainted with high-end UV-resistant paint, along with new awnings on both structures.
Inside the main home, you’ll find high ceilings, original oak hardwood floors, original windows, crystal doorknobs with brass keyplates and strike plates, and built-in bookshelves. The original wood-burning fireplace, fitted with gas logs, provides instant heat while maintaining the look of a natural fire. The dining room showcases a vintage Scottish pub table with leaves and period lighting that enhances the home’s warmth and authenticity.
The eat-in kitchen retains its original wood cabinetry and hutch, complemented by butcher block counters, a gas range, and a vintage enamel-top table. A charming Florida Room, surrounded by vintage stained-glass windows, discreetly houses near-new washer and dryer hookups behind a hand-painted wood screen. The bathroom preserves its original tub and toilet, paired with classic Laura Ashley wallpaper and a large closet with built-in drawers.
Outdoor living continues with a covered rear porch and brick steps leading to a spacious, private backyard. A storage shed adds convenience, while the grassy alley behind the property offers a peaceful setting for walking or jogging. Additional upgrades include a 2023 HVAC system, gas on-demand water heater servicing both structures, and updated subflooring, piers, and foundation timbers for added structural peace of mind.
The detached accessory structure has 200 heated square feet and was thoughtfully designed to complement the historic bungalow. It provides versatile flex space for a home office, studio, playroom, or retreat. Features include real wood floors, a loft sleeping area with workspace, an additional downstairs workstation, retro-style Galanz refrigerator, and a full bath with subway tile, upcycled antique vanity, and semi-circular shower. A stackable washer/dryer is also included.
The outdoor setting is equally inviting, with a pergola-covered deck, Edison lighting, firepit seating area, and a 1950s wrought iron patio set perfect for relaxing or entertaining. An additional Tuff Shed provides extra storage for tools and equipment.
Located in a non-flood zone (buyer to verify), this property has no known history of flooding.
Prime location with easy access to parks, recreation, fishing, beaches, cafés, and shopping. Just 4 minutes to MacDill AFB, 5 minutes to scenic Bayshore Boulevard, and approximately 15 minutes to Downtown Tampa, Davis Islands, Hyde Park Village, and Ybor City. St. Petersburg is just 30 minutes via the Gandy Bridge.
This is more than a home, this is a preserved piece of South Tampa history offering timeless character, modern functionality, and rare flexibility in one exceptional property.
