This charming home is located in the desirable Ballast Point area, a block and a half off of Bayshore Blvd. It's been said that South Tampa has a 5-mile radius, but it's time to get comfortable with your new 1-mile radius to everything you need and want: Enjoy Ballast Point Park complete with fishing pier, bait store, restaurant, ice cream shop, splash pad, and playground. All your dining needs from your morning hipster coffee shop, lunch or dinner at a variety of restaurants (Mediterranean, poke bowls, Italian, Cuban, seafood, etc. ) to strolling home along Bayshore Blvd. after tapas and drinks. Forget the gym membership and instead head over to humongous Gadsden park for your softball, kick ball, or little league game, enjoy the 2-mile exercise track around the beautiful lake including equipment. Afterwards rest underneath the shady oak trees while your dog plays at one of the three separate fenced dog parks and younger ones play at the playground within view. Want a change of scenery? Pop over to South Tampa Farm visit the pigs, cows, and chickens at while picking up some fresh eggs and honey. Not to mention the convenience stores, the infamous local grocery and meat market, pharmacy, cleaners, one of the most coveted elementary schools in the state, MacDill Air Force Base. .. .the list of things in your one-mile radius just keeps going from horse back riding to yacht clubs. Back home, relish the unique neighborhood feel where everyone knows each others' names while living in the heart of Tampa on your own over-sized lot- almost twice the size of the standard Tampa property. Think you might want more room at some point? No worries there, as you can expand the house and still leave plenty of space for that refreshing pool you've been thinking of in your private backyard oasis. #NewRoof2018 #UpdatedWindows #FullSecuritySystem #IrrigationSystem
