BEAUTIFULLY UPDATED HOME IN SOUTH TAMPA neighborhood offers an abundance of room for living, and entertaining, thanks to a large lot encompassing lots of green space. This inviting four bedroom, two bathroom residence rests on a 70 x 131 foot lot featuring a tall shade tree and low lying shrubs. The back of the house opens onto a fully screened in paved patio that is partially covered so that residents and guests can comfortably gather outdoors year round.

The open floor plan sports new flooring throughout as well as new windows and sliders that fill the living and dining areas and fully updated kitchen with lots of natural light. An entryway large enough to fit a couch provides views all the way through to the big backyard.
