Property Description
Under contract-accepting backup offers. This vintage 1960’s home has 3 bedrooms plus a large study off the family room, it’s a well-maintained step back in time, perfect for one who loves the mid-century style. Perched on a hill…really…and across the street from the Hillsborough River, on almost half an acre. If updating is your fancy, the hard work is out of the way, the roof, HVAC, and ductwork were replaced in 2019, the home has also been re-piped, so one need only focus on the cosmetics. If entertaining is your thing this home is perfect! The spacious formal living and dining room open through sliding glass doors (as does the family room) to an oversized screened room with a vented brick base waiting for a grill. Open those sliding glass doors and let the traffic flow. The kitchen opens to the family room with a breakfast/serving bar and a visual focus on the full masonry wood burning fireplace. The extended raised seating hearth is perfect for backing up to the fire on that rare cold day. The oversized office/library has a built-in desk area with cabinets, shelving, and a large storage closet. It opens to the family room through double pocket doors, so it is easily closed off for privacy. The 3rd bedroom also has a built-in desk, shelving and a Murphy bed! The current owner worked from home and had a lot of heat producing computer equipment, so a mini split was installed for extra comfort. Original parquet flooring runs through the study, family room, and hall to the bedrooms. The primary bedroom has TWO walk-in closets with built-ins, an en-suite bath with the vanity area separated from the shower and w/c affording extra privacy. Sliding glass doors open to a brick patio and the lush backyard with plenty of room for a pool, or just a happy gardener. A great place to watch the sunset in the evening or have an outdoor meal. The paver brick circular drive affords additional parking, as does the area behind the oversized side entry garage. The vintage cracked tile front entry welcomes you to the front door with a beautiful wrought iron screen door that allows you to open up in mild weather and let the fresh air flow. There is an irrigation well to maintain the lush landscaping, quite a money saver in these dry months. Located in close proximity to the Temple Terrace Golf and Country Club, this is a golf-cart friendly community with cart tunnels under Bullard Parkway for safe travel. Also close to schools, the public library, parks (one with a public boat ramp to the Hillsborough River), the TT Rec Center and everything our little city has to offer. Only minutes from USF, Advent Hospital, the VA, all the surrounding medical facilities, I-75, I-275, I-4 and the Crosstown Expressway. The TTG&CC offers a complimentary 3-month social membership to new homeowners.
