For more than 30 years, this beloved riverfront home has been part of one family's story-a place where mornings began with coffee on the dock as manatees floated by, and evenings ended watching fish jump under the setting sun. Tucked along the serene Alafia River, this property is far from ordinary. It's not a cookie-cutter house-it's a secluded retreat where memories have been made and where new ones are waiting. Imagine casting off from your private dock for a day on the Alafia River, knowing natural springs are right around the corner and Tampa Bay is just a 40 minute cruise away. Picture weekends spent unwinding in your screened-in, heated pool and spa with the river and your 1 acre property as a backdrop. Whether you're hosting friends, watching wildlife drift past, or simply soaking in the peace of your backyard sanctuary, every moment here feels special. Inside, the home has been beautifully refreshed to meet today's standards while preserving its one-of-a-kind charm. Original Spanish tile floors in the living areas add warmth and character, while the modernized kitchen-with stainless appliances and sleek cabinetry-makes everyday living easy. The primary suite is amazing, opening to the pool and spa, with a spa-inspired bathroom featuring a dual-head oversized shower and 2 walk-in closets. Guests will appreciate their own en-suite accommodations as well. The third bedroom offers flexibility for a small guest room or office. Recent upgrades include all-new plumbing (2024), a brand-new HVAC system, a new water heater (2025), and a roof replaced in 2018. Every bathroom has been updated with stone countertops and contemporary vanities, while new LVP flooring runs through the bedrooms. The home has remained high and dry through the years, with only one minor, professionally remediated flood event following Hurricane Milton. With no HOA restrictions, you can bring your boat, RV, and all your toys. Your dock-with covered boat lift, electricity, and water-makes waterfront living effortless. From here, a quick cruise brings you to local favorites like Tiki Docks or The Beer Shed, and within 20 minutes you can be in the heart of downtown Tampa. This is more than just a house on the Alafia. It's a riverfront lifestyle rarely found in Tampa Bay.
