Be inspired… welcome to Tarpon Springs! This “Key West” influenced home lies in the middle of the “Old Town” area of this nostalgic city. From its hand-carved pineapple railings surrounding the front porch, to its joyful, vivid color schemes, inside and out - this endearing bungalow home screams of charm, history, and character. Circa 1926, this two bedroom, one bath beach cottage boasts extensive custom wood trim work around the windows, doors and floors, crown moldings, new flooring throughout, new paint, updated kitchen with new shaker cabinetry and quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and updated “retro” bathroom. There is a large, central living room that is open to the inviting dining area and kitchen. The home also features a bonus, interior office and laundry room, with a separate exterior entrance, ideal for working remotely and/or meeting with clients. Central air conditioning runs throughout the structure. There is a large pool-sized, cleared back yard, with endless possibilities and opportunities - a blank canvas for your design touches and landscaping desires. The lot, itself, is NOT located in a flood zone - thus, no flood insurance is required. This notable abode is located on a brick-lined street, within the city’s local Historic District, and is considered a contributing structure within the neighborhood of other historic homes. Within close proximity to everything that this bohemian-cultured town has to offer. Walking distance to all of the new local taverns, breweries, and pubs. Take a short stroll to lively Tarpon Avenue and enjoy all of the ever-frequent activities and festivities that this eclectic downtown thrives on. Immerse yourself within the proud mutli-cultural heritage community emanating from the nearby Sponge Docks, and all along Pinellas Avenue - ethnic stores, restaurants, and vibrant culture - all at your fingertips, and without the need for a car. A short bicycle ride along the manatee-frequented bayou, while exploring through this bike-friendly town - takes you to celebrated Howard Park, and/or famed Sunset Beach. It’s not just a house to buy - it’s the fabric of community and lifestyle, that this refuge is woven within - that one becomes a part of!
