Under contract-accepting backup offers. ** Under Contract - Accepting Back-Up Offers ** Tucked away deep in the heart of Tampa's highly sought-after Riverside Heights neighborhood, this tastefully updated bungalow sits high and dry (Flood Zone X) on a spacious 0.25-acre corner lot.   The old adage "location, location, location" fits perfectly here.   In addition to its close proximity to downtown Tampa, Armature Works, the Riverwalk, and Hillsborough river…Riverside Heights has three city parks within it.  From here you're literally 2 blocks from both Duran Park and Plymouth Park, two of the finest, with amenities including playgrounds, basketball courts, a ball field, and tons of greenspace that the active neighborhood uses to host an Easter egg hunt, Halloween trunk-or-treat, and makers' markets.   Combine that with minimal traffic (no thru streets and the river buffer), quiet surroundings and beautiful oak lined streets and you’ve got the best of all worlds.  The 1,792 sq ft 3 bed/2.5 bath home lives comfortably and was extensively renovated in 2018.  Updates include a new kitchen with granite counters, ceiling-height hardwood cabinetry, stainless appliance suite, and propane tank system to fuel the gas stove and tankless hot water heater.  Other upgrades include an expanded primary suite, laundry room, a half bath that's accessible from both the inside and outside, updated guest bathroom, and engineered hardwood flooring throughout.  Roof was replaced in 2017, and the exterior was just completely repainted.  Like to entertain?  This place is built for it! The great room opens out, in two directions, leading to large composite decks off both the front and side elevations (complete with hot tub!), making great venues to hang out and socialize. Landscaping with palm trees and a mature avocado tree gives it a touch of the tropics, and the ability to make an endless supply of guac for all your guests!  The expansive corner lot provides plenty of room for all sorts of outdoor activities, pets to run around, add a pool or ADU, and still have space for a boat or RV (No HOA or CDD).  If you like to tinker or need extra storage capacity, the attached mini-garage and additional outbuilding provide flexible utility spaces that make a great workshop, toy barn, she shed, sportsman's den - or whatever else may suit your needs.  With so much here, you really need to experience it in person.  So don’t wait, grab your walking shoes and schedule your showing today!
