BIG PRICE REDUCTION TO GET A CONTRACT! This property is zoned as residential with the possibility of being commercial with an approved application. Lots of possibilities and it is an extremely valuable opportunity not to be missed! The owner of 31 years has lovingly cared for this spacious family home. It sits proudly on the corner of Tallevast Rd and Tuttle. This rare gem has 3 large bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, an extra large office, and an open plan living area with beautiful wood burning fireplace. There is a large Florida Room perfect for a family room or even an office area. Outside features a fenced back yard and a new roof and newer A/C! The property goes way back into what used to be a tree farm and far off to the left woof fence. The potential to add on or build something larger is defiantly present and could be checked with the county. Currently zoned as RSF-4.5 with potential to be rezoned to Res-6. The oversized driveway on this corner lot has convenient and valuable means of ingress and egress. You wont find a more convenient location, just minutes away from University Parkway and all the shopping and business amenities surrounding the area and in development. The new mall going in could make this property even more valuable in a year or twos time!
