This is a beautifully situated 3 bedroom/2.5 bath home with a den and pool on a quiet street in the heart of desirable Swann Estates in South Tampa. The generous lot size, not in a flood zone, allows for backyard space even with the newly refinished pool & pool deck complete with 2-story screened-in enclosure. The generous second floor deck overlooking the pool spans the entire backside of the home and can be accessed directly from the pool area by its own staircase. Inside, genuine hard wood floors extend throughout the first floor excluding the wet areas, which are tile. Savor a morning coffee in the Sun Room surrounded by glass walls, glass ceiling, and gorgeous stained wood. Gather together in the family room around the over-sized, inviting fireplace. The den downstairs is currently used as an office, features double glass doors, and shares a closet with the downstairs AC handler. Head up the wood staircase to find all three bedrooms that look out to the 2nd floor deck. Two of the three bedrooms include sliding glass doors so you can walk directly out on the elevated deck perfect for lounge furniture and entertaining, while being screened-in and protected from mosquitoes! Sleep well knowing the new roof was installed in 2018. Walk out your front door to enjoy South Hale park, where the optional neighborhood association gathers for holiday festivals and other community gatherings. The park is currently in the process of requesting a fenced area to allow for additional safety of the youngest area residents while playing.
