About this home

Short Sale. UNBEATABLE TAMPA VALUE! ASSUMABLE LOW 4% VA RATE + BEAT THE DEC. 31ST FLORIDA TAX DEADLINE! Stop scrolling for the ultimate real estate unicorn. Perfect for first time buyers, families, and veterans, this pristine block home combines modern upgrades, absolute peace of mind, and a massive double financial advantage. While a turnkey short sale requiring lender approval, this property is in rare, immaculate condition. Well qualified buyers can bypass today's high market rates by assuming the existing Freedom Mortgage VA loan in the low 4% range. Plus, with Florida’s new Amendment 3 property tax law passed, buyers who establish permanent Florida residency before December 31, 2026, unlock massive expanded homestead exemptions (up to $150,000 in 2027 and $250,000 in 2028 on non school taxes). Wait until after Dec. 31st to establish residency, and you face a 5 year waiting period to qualify! (Already a Florida resident? Close now to let the seller cover the 2026 property tax bill while locking in your homestead status for 2027!) Inside, the bright 3BR/2.5BA open layout is designed for modern living and effortless entertaining. The updated chef's kitchen features premium granite countertops, a massive center island, and stainless appliances. Major updates offer long term peace of mind, including a 2019 roof, plus a new water heater and updated electrical panel completed in 2020. Outside, the massive, fully fenced backyard features a convenient storage shed and plenty of room for kids, pets, and hosting. The prime location delivers unmatched neighborhood charm and urban convenience. Walk just one block to Foster Elementary School or head less than a mile to vibrant local parks. You are minutes from the hot Seminole Heights dining scene (Rooster & the Till, Ella's), USF, Armature Works, Ybor City, and Downtown Tampa, with lightning fast access to I 275 and I 4. Opportunities like this are virtually non existent today. Bypass high prices, capture thousands in tax savings, and lock in a historic interest rate now!
