Under contract-accepting backup offers. From the moment you step through the front door, this elegant Mediterranean-style 5-bedroom, 4.5-bath South Tampa pool home makes an impression. Your sightline carries through the bright, open interior all the way to the sparkling pool beyond, immediately setting the tone for a home designed for both relaxed Florida living and effortless entertaining. Set along a beautiful oak tree-lined street surrounded by stately homes, the residence combines generous spaces with architectural character and an exceptionally livable open floor plan. Warm wood floors, graceful arches, crown molding, abundant natural light and a dramatic two-story foyer create an inviting sense of scale. The heart of the home is the expansive kitchen and family room, where everyone can gather without feeling crowded. The kitchen offers abundant maple cabinetry and counter space, double ovens, new gas cooktop, dishwasher, a prep sink, walk-in pantry and a large breakfast bar overlooking the family room. A striking coffered ceiling and custom built-ins add character to the adjoining living space, while multiple doors and windows draw your eye toward the backyard and sideyard. Outside, the home truly embraces the Florida lifestyle. The 45' x 12' screened pool, with new pool pump, filter and heater, is surrounded by lush, private landscaping, while the spacious covered lanai with wet bar creates an inviting outdoor living area for morning coffee, weekend gatherings or relaxing poolside at the end of the day. Upstairs, the large primary suite feels like a private retreat, with plenty of room for a sitting area, two closets—including an impressive walk-in with extensive built-in storage—and a spacious en-suite bath featuring dual vanities, a soaking tub and separate shower. A dedicated office surrounded by handsome wood built-ins provides an ideal work-from-home space. Another upstairs bedroom enjoys its own en-suite bath, while two additional bedrooms share a full bath. A first-floor bedroom with an en-suite bath and direct pool access offers excellent flexibility for guests. Practical upgrades make this home even more compelling, including a new roof (2025), whole-home generator, electric vehicle charger, reverse-osmosis water filtration and indoor/outdoor speakers. Even better, no flood insurance is required, a significant advantage for a South Tampa home. Located in the highly sought-after Plant High School District, this home puts some of South Tampa's most desirable conveniences close at hand, with easy access and walkable to dining, libraries, fitness, and 6 major grocery stores. Also convenient to Tampa International Airport and major roadways. Spacious, light-filled, private and made for entertaining, this is the kind of South Tampa home where the pool catches your eye before you've even finished walking through the front door—and the lifestyle keeps getting better from there.
Swann Estates, located between Bayshore Boulevard and Dale Mabry Highway, is a residential and waterfront-adjacent Tampa neighborhood with oak-canopied streets and a polished, low-key feel. The area reads as classic South Tampa, with a mix of mid-century ranch homes, updated Mediterranean-inspired builds, and tidy brick streets in pockets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Bay to Bay Boulevard and MacDill Avenue corridor, where coffee counters, boutiques, and patio dining set a steady daytime hum. Community pillars nearby include Bern’s Steak House, the Tampa Museum of Art, and the Straz Center for the Performing Arts. Bayshore’s long waterfront sidewalk frames morning runs and sunset strolls, while nearby parks and small plazas keep daily errands close to home.
