Property Description
Some properties check boxes. This one opens doors. 4 Bed/ 3 Bath Potential
Set on one of Davis Islands' deeper lots, 55' x 140' on a coveted RS-60 homesite, this property offers something increasingly rare on the island: room to breathe, room to grow, and room to make it entirely your own. Whether you envision a light renovation, a full reimagining, or a brand-new custom home, the canvas is here and the main home is move-in ready.
The main home delivers more livability than its footprint suggests. A spacious living room flows into a generous kitchen with island cooking and a dedicated dining area. French doors open to a screened porch, your front-row seat to peaceful Florida mornings and golden island evenings. The large family room is perfect for movie nights, relaxing, or casual gatherings. The primary bedroom features a large walk-in closet, a genuine rarity at this price point on Davis Islands. The second bedroom and full bath provide comfortable accommodations for family or guests. A versatile den, formerly a bedroom, easily restored, makes a natural home office, media room, or third bedroom. The ceramic tile floors pair with beautifully preserved retro-tile bathrooms that bring timeless charm. Inside laundry and newer double pane windows/ slider, and plantation shutters completes the picture.
Beyond the main home, the property truly sets itself apart. A separate studio apartment offers flexible space for guests, in-laws, or a private creative retreat. A private rear courtyard 28' x 32', lush with tropical landscaping, connects the main home and studio into an entertainer's oasis. An oversized rear workshop awaits your vision: storage, a hobby space, a home gym, or an expanded studio. A large rear carport 22'10” x 14' keeps the vehicles, golf cart, kayaks, and bikes covered, and it's all fully fenced.
The main home was largely renovated following approximately 12 inches of flooding during the 2024 storm event, the only such occurrence since Davis Islands was established in 1921. Remaining updates are primarily limited to bathroom vanities. The studio is in good overall condition; kitchen and bath cabinetry may need repair or replacement. The workshop has not been renovated and presents an excellent opportunity to customize from scratch or expand the studio into a true guest retreat or detached office.
Key updates: Roof with secondary water barrier (2016). HVAC & ducts (2011) with new condenser-14 seer energy eff. 2024. Newer double pane windows and sliding door 2012/14, Hot Water Heater 2024
On Davis Islands, location is everything.
Cross the bridge and feel the island shift immediately: a small-town warmth just minutes from Downtown Tampa, Water Street, Sparkman Wharf, Benchmark Arena, and iconic Bayshore Boulevard. Stroll to Davis Islands Village for local restaurants, bars, coffee, Duckweed Market, and live music. Tampa General Hospital, a Level I trauma center, is moments away. The island lifestyle is the draw, and residents know it: the Yacht Club, swimming beach, Marjorie Park Municipal Yacht Basin, Roy Jenkins Pool, dog park, dog beach, walking trails, Seaplane Basin Park, Peter O. Knight Airport, and a water taxi stop to Downtown Tampa. And when Gasparilla season rolls around, there is simply no better address.
