About this home
Airbnb-Eligible Bungalow in the Heart of Seminole Heights — A Rare Opportunity with Historic Charm and Modern Comforts
This beautifully preserved 1925 bungalow isn’t just a stunning primary residence—it’s also eligible for use as a short-term rental, giving it the potential to generate income through platforms like Airbnb.* Whether you're looking for a charming personal home or a savvy investment opportunity, this is a standout in South Seminole Heights.
Winner of the South Seminole Heights Beautification Award in 2022, this 3-bedroom, 1-bath home blends timeless character with thoughtful updates. From the moment you arrive, you’ll be greeted by a custom front staircase, historically accurate restored wood siding (2020), and a freshly painted exterior (2021). It’s also one of the few homes in all of Seminole Heights with a double-wide paver driveway—comfortably fitting six vehicles in the front and three more in the back.
Inside, you’ll find original 1925 hardwood floors, built-in bookshelves, and a functioning wood-burning fireplace with a closable cap (cleaned in 2023). Historic details like crystal doorknobs remain beautifully intact, while modern enhancements include popcorn ceiling removal (2024), fresh interior paint (2024), and an upgraded kitchen with premium vinyl flooring (2024) and a brand-new suite of stainless appliances (2025).
Additional improvements include a 25-year roof (2017), new washer and dryer (2023), and a completely new 3-ton AC system with all-new ducting (2024). The air handler is tucked away in the attic to maximize closet space.
Located on a quiet, tree-lined street in one of Tampa’s most beloved historic neighborhoods, this home is walkable to parks, coffee shops, and local hotspots. With easy access to downtown, the Riverwalk, and everything Seminole Heights has to offer, this home offers lifestyle, location, and potential all in one.
