HELLO GORGEOUS… That’s exactly what you’ll say the moment you step onto this beautifully remodeled, move-in-ready home tucked away on nearly half an acre in the heart of the charming Temple Terraces community. Set on a sprawling 0.43-acre fully fenced lot, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath beauty blends modern upgrades with Florida charm. Surrounded by majestic shade trees and tropical fruit—including banana, lemon, lime, peach, plum, and avocado trees—this is your own personal slice of paradise. Want a pool? There’s room. A garden? You bet. A swing set, a fire pit? Go for it. Inside, you’ll find 1,150 sq ft of heated living space with elegant porcelain and ceramic tile flooring throughout. The open-concept layout connects the stylish kitchen (remodeled in 2022 with hardwood cabinetry, granite counters, and stainless-steel appliances) to the spacious living and dining areas—perfect for hosting dinner parties or just enjoying a quiet night in. The primary suite is pure indulgence, offering dual closets and a spa-inspired bath with dual sinks, a Jacuzzi tub, and a sleek glass-enclosed shower. Two additional bedrooms are bright and airy, with recessed lighting and beautiful wood-tone ceramic flooring. The second bath is just as updated and chic, featuring a modern vanity and glass-enclosed tile shower. Upgrades? Too many to list—but here’s a taste: New HVAC, electric, and plumbing (2022), New ductwork, New tankless water heater, New septic tank, New roof with GAF lifetime warranty (2021), New exterior stucco and doors (2022). And then there’s the 16x22 detached TUFF SHED—fully wired with electricity, windows, and doors. Use it as a pool house, gym, office, man cave, or she-shed. It's versatile, private, and ready for your vision. When the Florida sunshine calls, head outside to your covered outdoor kitchen and bar, complete with lighting, fans, a fridge, grill, and TV hookup. From morning coffee to evening cocktails, this space was built to entertain. Best of all? No HOA. Not in a flood zone. And you’re just minutes to USF, Moffitt, the VA, MOSI, and I-275. Downtown Tampa is only 20 minutes away. Approximately 40-minute drive to the beautiful Florida beaches. This is more than a home—it’s a lifestyle. A rare, turn-key find in Temple Terrace that delivers privacy, upgrades, and endless possibility. Come fall in love before someone else does!
