Location doesn't get much better than this! Come visit this charming home on Idlewild, and you'll understand what the draw is to this quiet pocket of Old Seminole Heights. Nestled away amongst mature trees, this corner lot property is a stone's throw from the Hillsborough River, and makes you feel like you've found a hidden gem of Florida--all while being only a 10 minute drive from Downtown. The home itself offers as much outdoor living space as it does inside. Enjoy the fully fenced in yard (white vinyl privacy fencing added in the last couple years) that also features a new, large paver patio, storage shed, and garden beds for the green thumb of the household. The side yard courtyard offers a separate outdoor living area, and is a blank canvas! Step inside and you'll be pleasantly surprised by how spacious, open, and bright the living areas are. The large living room features a wood-burning fireplace (and it works!), wood flooring, and built-in shelving. The living room opens to the kitchen and dining room, where you will find a large pantry closet, your laundry closet, and new french doors that lead out to the paver patio area. The master bedroom is spacious and has a couple options for a 2nd bathroom addition to convert this into a full master en suite. The one bathroom has been tastefully updated and has plenty of storage. Other recent features and upgrades include new AC system (approx 1 year old), water softener (2021), gas water heater, updated flooring in bedrooms, windows on south side of house replaced with hurricane impact windows, termite tenting (approx 3 years ago), and replaced old asbestos siding with hardie board siding.
