One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. A once in a generation opportunity to restore one of Bayshore Boulevard's most treasured historic estates. Situated on nearly one-half acre along Tampa's most iconic waterfront boulevard, this remarkable 1939 historic residence offers the rare chance to create a world-class estate while preserving an irreplaceable piece of Tampa history. Lovingly owned by the same family for three generations, this legally protected historic home is ready for its next chapter. Encompassing more than 5,000 square feet with breathtaking views of Tampa Bay, the residence is ideally suited for the buyer who appreciates architectural significance and envisions transforming a cherished historic home into an extraordinary custom estate. The existing floor plan offers expansive formal and informal living spaces, three bedrooms, three full baths, two half baths, a dramatic living room with hardwood floors and a fireplace, a sun-filled solarium overlooking the bay, a formal dining room, loft, game room, and generous entertaining areas. The interior presents an exceptional canvas for a comprehensive renovation thoughtfully designed to preserve the home's historic character while embracing today's luxury lifestyle. Outside, mature landscaping, a private tropical rear yard with alley access, and nearly one-half acre create an exceptionally rare setting along iconic Bayshore Boulevard. Enjoy miles of scenic waterfront sidewalks, Hyde Park Village, Downtown Tampa, premier dining, shopping, cultural attractions, championship golf, yacht clubs, convenient access to Tampa International Airport, the renowned Tampa General Hospital, and many of Tampa's distinguished public and private schools. Properties of this significance rarely become available.
