On charming Central Avenue, the house wakes up before the city. Sunlight through the windows, a breeze on the porch, and the low hum of a place where people still know their neighbors. This 2021 Craftsman delivers three bedrooms, two baths, and just under 1,900 square feet of modern living in an historic neighborhood tucked alongside the Hillsborough River. Engineered hardwood plank floors run wall to wall, anchoring an open layout designed for real life: dinner parties that ignore the clock, friends who stay late, quiet Sunday mornings. The primary suite is extraordinary. Dual vanities, a striking open-shower design, two walk-in closets. Bathrooms are modern and clean. Out front, the enormous porch — swing included — is pure Seminole Heights. Hellos turn into conversations under the oaks, then neighbors are suddenly pulling up chairs and breaking out guitars. Behind the scenes, this house quietly flexes. Fully paid-off solar panels keep the electric bills so low TECO sometimes pays you. Modern 2021 construction by local builder Vikin Homes means insurance costs won’t make you question your life choices. The charm of a rear parking Craftsman bungalow without all the “projects.” Set on iconic Central Avenue, the home places you in the heart of the city. A single stoplight stands between here and downtown Tampa, just four miles south. Take a stroll to the best bars and restaurants, paddle the Hillsborough River, or grab a dipped cone down the street at Bo’s Ice Cream. Affordability meets real Florida living somewhere cool.
