Conveniently located just 30 minutes from Tampa International Airport. Don't miss the chance to live in this special house located on a corner lot without sidewalks and plenty of shade. This home appears set back further than others and offers great curb appeal. The professional landscaping surrounding the home shows pride in ownership and creates a beautiful setting. From the moment you walk in the front door you have a spacious feel as you can see across the entire width of the house and through the 12 foot sliders all the way to a beautiful centuries old oak tree. The entire house has a wide-open feel because every room has 16 foot cathedral ceilings. In the morning the sun shines bright, in the afternoon the trees cover the Sun from the heat and then the late afternoon the sun rings in the light through the clever design of the rectangular cut out in the roof that brings light through the captain's window into the great room. The 6 low height trees provide enough shade to greatly lower the electricity bill in the summertime, $126 for June 2023. All 3 bedrooms and the foyer feature beautiful new vinyl wood plank floors. The remaining flooring is stylish ceramic tile. The large kitchen is 11 ft X 17 Ft and includes a breakfast nook. There is a pantry for plenty of storage.

The guest bathroom features a gorgeous polished marble tub that runs floor to ceiling. The primary suite hosts a walk-in closet, linen closet, and the bathroom features: updated light fixtures, paint designs, and crystal touches making it sparkle beautifully. Enjoy the sea breezes in the most relaxing and enjoyable feature of this house which is the 32 by 12 foot screened in covered lanai. It provides privacy and features eye-catching landscaping and stone work, grass, hedge, and palm for greenery while serving as a casual living area with plenty of versatility.

How insights can help you

Interest rate

If the seller has a low interest rate, they may be tempted to rent the property out if they can't get the price they have in mind.

Motivation

If the seller already got a job in a different city, they may feel pressure to sell quickly to free up cash for a new home.

Equity

If the seller stands to receive a large amount of cash when they sell the property, they might be willing to negotiate on the offer price.
