One of the most beautifully restored historic homes in Old Seminole Heights, this exceptional property blends timeless character with thoughtful modern updates. From the grand front porch to the stunning original windows, natural light fills the home and highlights the craftsmanship and architectural detail throughout. Inside, you'll find original wood floors, crown molding, built-ins, spacious rooms, abundant closet space, 12' tray ceilings, and upgraded glass chandeliers that add elegance and warmth. At the heart of the home is an updated chef's kitchen designed for entertaining, featuring double ovens, a six-burner gas range with pot filler, wine cooler, large pantry, statement island, and exposed brick accent wall. A dedicated wine room, a rare find in Seminole Heights, adds even more charm and functionality. The main house offers 3,697 heated square feet, 5 bedrooms, and 4 full bathrooms, along with three fireplaces located in the living room, dining room, and oversized primary suite. The primary suite is a true retreat with a separate sitting area, fireplace, abundant closet space, a feature plank wood wall, and a mini-split unit for added comfort and energy efficiency. Bathrooms are beautifully styled with vintage-inspired freestanding tubs and timeless finishes, creating the perfect balance of historic charm and modern comfort. Adding to the property's flexibility and appeal is a separate 1-bedroom guest house offering 567 heated square feet, complete with a living room, fully equipped kitchen, in-unit washer and dryer, private entrance, and designated parking pad. Just steps from the pool, the detached two-car garage provides additional functionality with bonus storage space, a full pool bath, and convenient alley access. The guest house also features a metal roof, making it ideal for guests, extended family, or income potential. Step outside to a sun-filled private oasis with a beautifully updated saltwater pool, paver pool deck, outdoor shower, and fully fenced oversized yard, perfect for relaxing or entertaining. Originally updated in 2018, the home has also been improved with a tankless water heater (2024), new insulation (2025), termite tenting completed in 2023 with warranty, interior and exterior painting, and a refinished porch. Ideally located in one of the best pockets of Seminole Heights, this home is within walking distance to the Garden Center, local coffee shops, and favorite restaurants, while being just minutes from Downtown Tampa, Tampa International Airport, and approximately 30 minutes from some of Florida's best beaches. Not located in a flood zone.
