Property Description


0.30 Acres Lot
Built in 1979
For Sale - Active
1 Units

This spacious 5-bedroom, 3-bathroom split-level ranch home is ideally situated on a peaceful street in the leafy, well-established neighborhood of Temple Terrace, just around the corner from the Temple Terrace Family Recreation Complex. Nestled on a generously sized lot, the property has a backyard complete with a deck, inground pool, and a large, screened lanai, perfect for outdoor living and entertaining. Recent updates include a new roof (2023), a new A/C unit (December 2024), a fully renovated kitchen (2024), updated bathrooms, and a new water heater (2023). The expansive great room features soaring cathedral ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace, and French doors that open to an enclosed, air-conditioned Florida room, providing fantastic additional space for family and friends to gather. The brand-new kitchen offers granite countertops, an eat-in breakfast area, and plenty of storage, making it a dream for any home cook. The large master suite includes an ensuite bathroom with a jet tub, its own water heater and a separate walk-in closet, offering a private retreat. On the opposite side of the house are 3 guestrooms and 2 full bathrooms. The versatile 5th bedroom is currently being used as an office. A floor plan is included with the photos of the property. This home is located in a non-flood zone, so no flood insurance is required, and there are no HOA or CDD fees. The neighborhood is known for its excellent Charter Schools, and nearby International Baccalaureate programs. Conveniently located near I-75, the University of South Florida, the 14th hole of the Temple Terrace Golf and Country Club, Busch Gardens, the VA and Moffitt Hospitals, and just a short drive to beautiful beaches, this home offers the perfect balance of tranquility and accessibility.
