Description
Welcome to 217 W Powhatan Avenue—a true gem in the heart of Old Seminole Heights. This charming 1924 bungalow sits on an oversized lot surrounded by mature landscaping and the unmistakable character that makes this neighborhood one of Tampa’s most beloved. From the moment you step onto the front porch, you’ll feel the warmth and personality of this timeless home. Some great upgrades that have been done are: metal roof that’s only approximately 10 years old, new sewer line to street in 2022, New Train a/c system in 2017, Gas stove and gas hot water heater (which is a 40 gallon), the electrical has been updated. There is also an office AND a huge bonus room (in addition to the 2 bedrooms) in the back for storage, an indoor laundry or whatever else you’d like. There’s also a Massive 1 car garage that could easily be a 2 car garage or a garage/in law suite combo. Inside, original hardwood floors, a cozy wood-burning fireplace, and rich architectural details create an inviting space full of history and heart. The natural light dances through the windows, highlighting the craftsmanship of a bygone era—think crown molding, built-ins, and the subtle elegance of original trim and hardware. The living and dining rooms flow effortlessly, offering the perfect backdrop for both intimate evenings and lively gatherings. The kitchen, filled with potential, invites your creative touch, whether you dream of a vintage-inspired space or a modern farmhouse design. The two spacious bedrooms share a charming bathroom and offer peaceful retreats after a long day. Outside, the large backyard is a canvas for your imagination: add a pool, design your dream garden, or enjoy the ample space for entertaining under the stars. A detached garage sits at the back of the property, ideal for storage, a workshop, or future expansion. Located on a quiet, tree-lined street just blocks from beloved local spots like Henry & Ola Park, the new Heights Drive-Thru, the new Salty Donut; and much more! This home offers the perfect blend of lifestyle and neighborhood pride. Surrounded by historic homes, welcoming neighbors, and some of Tampa’s best coffee shops, breweries, and boutiques, this is more than just a home, it’s a lifestyle. Whether you’re looking to lovingly restore a piece of history or make it your own with modern updates, 217 W Powhatan Avenue offers a rare opportunity to own a very reasonably priced bungalow in one of Tampa’s most iconic locations!
