About this home
Experience what many call "one of the most beautiful views in Florida." This rare opportunity is one of only 10 properties situated directly on Hanna’s Whirl, a pristine open bayou on the Hillsborough River. Nestled in a serene stretch of Seminole Heights, this home offers an unparalleled blend of adventure, tranquility, and modern luxury. This refinished 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom midcentury residence is elevated HIGH AND DRY above the riverbank, offering you complete peace of mind. The home has been thoughtfully modernized throughout, featuring rich flooring that flows seamlessly underfoot. Bathed in natural light thanks to its ideal eastern exposure, the open-concept layout includes two primary suites, both boasting gorgeous ensuite bathrooms and stunning water views. The third bedroom is perfectly versatile, serving as an ideal guest suite or a quiet home office. No expense was spared in the renovation of the chef’s kitchen, which features a massive stone center island that serves as the heart of the home, complemented by custom cabinetry, charming bonus nooks, and a tasteful nautical theme that runs throughout the living spaces. Whether you are an avid boater or a nature enthusiast, this property is your private gateway to the water. With 91 feet of direct riverfront, you can launch your boat from your private dock and enjoy easy navigation to downtown Tampa’s hotspots, or paddle upstream to explore the wilder reaches of the calming Hillsborough River. The backyard is a true oasis, featuring a massive rear deck and an expansive paver patio area perfect for entertaining. As a natural manatee habitat, this serene setting allows you to enjoy regular sightings of osprey, tarpon, and gentle manatees right from your own backyard, where you can also cast a line for top-quality fishing. The property is fully fenced for privacy and includes extra parking space. The giant yard gives space to add future swimming pools, additions or ADU. This is more than just a home; it is an adventurer’s sanctuary available to you now.
