OLD SEMINOLE HEIGHTS invites you to be captivated by this charming 1926 bungalow that was totally UPDATED in 2011 to current building standards in a tasteful, period style. Stroll up the cobbled brick walkway & notice the DUAL PANE WINDOWS, the plank Hardy Board Siding & updated landscaping. Step through the beveled opaque glass front door & you are instantly transformed back to a more peaceful time with beautiful, narrow plank red oak floors, crown molding, a cozy wood burning fireplace with slate accents, a custom wood mantle with dentil trim flanked on either side by display shelves. The spacious totally updated kitchen hosts plenty of Shaker style 42” white cabinets with Crown molding & soft close doors, period white subway tile backsplash, soft white Quartz counter tops, rustic open shelves, red wine storage, a built-in beverage chiller, Stainless GE convection range with glass INDUCTION cooktop, built-in microwave, dishwasher & a NEW French-Style Refrigerator! A large built-in closet pantry offers plenty of extra storage space. Friends will enjoy a chilled glass of wine while watching meal prep from the adjoining dining space complete with chair rail & wainscoting. The family room located at the rear of the home makes a great media space & features crown molding & easy-care laminate floors. The king-sized master bedroom offers narrow plank oak floors, crown molding & a tastefully updated ensuite complete with large walk-in shower, white base cabinets, quartz counters, dual sinks, upgraded lighting & fixtures, a linen closet & new comfort height commode. The guest bedroom features a stained-glass window created by a neighbor, narrow plank wood floors & a spacious closet. The updated guest bath hosts a period style pedestal sink, a deep reglazed soaking tub, ceramic tile surround & a comfort height commode. Note the original wood interior doors throughout the home. An interior laundry room with full size stackable washer & dryer and NEW TANKLESS water heater makes doing laundry a breeze! The back yard is magical & is where you will spend many delightful hours with friends bar-b- queuing & dining al fresco in the elevated screened & covered lanai. Outside the lanai are an abundance of brick paver walkways that leads to the almost new (2019) Hot Springs Portable Spa that is under cover & can be enjoyed in the privacy of the recently fenced back yard year-round! You’ll love the round brick firepit & the outdoor storage ‘cottage’ that looks to be straight out of a story book. An electrical fire in 2011 resulted in a $100K renovation that must be seen to be believed. The roof, HVAC, plumbing, electrical & hardy board siding were all updated during that renovation. Parking is no issue & is accessed from W. Knollwood St at the rear of the home where 4 cars can park easily on the concrete pad. Stroll to the Hillsborough riverside community park complete with benches & a doggie station. Drop your canoe, kayak or paddleboard in for exercise & recreation! Just 5 min to some of the top restaurants that Tampa has to offer!
