Welcome to Wellswood—one of Tampa’s most quietly cherished neighborhoods—this 3 bedroom, 2 bath 1949 bungalow offers a rare blend of character, confidence, and modern ease. Tree-lined streets, a strong sense of community, and effortless proximity to downtown create an urban–suburban balance that has long defined the area’s appeal.

Inside, the home unfolds with warmth and intention. Natural light moves freely through the open-concept living spaces, where an electric fireplace anchors the home with a sense of comfort and familiarity. The atmosphere is relaxed yet polished—ideal for hosting friends, gathering with family, or simply enjoying a slower rhythm at home.

The kitchen delivers the emotional “aha.” Beautifully updated with stone countertops, refined cabinetry, and stainless steel appliances, it serves as both the visual and social heart of the home—designed for conversation, connection, and everyday living. A split-bedroom layout provides privacy and balance, with a dedicated primary suite offering a quiet retreat at the end of the day.

Beyond the interiors, the backyard is expansive and private —a blank canvas ready for a pool, garden oasis, or outdoor entertaining space tailored to your lifestyle. The property is not located in a flood zone, and all major systems have been thoughtfully updated, allowing for true turnkey confidence.

Minutes from Downtown Tampa, Armature Works, and Rivercrest Park—where biking, kayaking, and weekend escapes come naturally—this home offers something increasingly rare: the charm and substance of an established neighborhood, paired with modern updates and pricing that sits well below nearby new construction. Updates that will make you and your insurance agent smile: Roof 2020, HVAC 2020, Tankless Water Heater 2020, Re-Plumbed 2020, Electric Panel and System 2020, Interior and Exterior Paint 2023/2026, Luxury Vinyl Plank Flooring 2023/2025, Kitchen Cabinetry and Stone Counters 2023/2025, Foundation Improvements including beam sistering and new subfloor 2020 & 2024, Bathroom Updates 2020/2026, Wood Fencing 2025

This is not about choosing between character and convenience.
It’s about having both. Make your appointment today to see for yourself! Preferred Lender offering $3,000 credit.
