About this home

Set on over half an acre of lush land with massive Hillsborough River frontage, this elevated mid-century modern home—designed by renowned local architect Frank DePasquale, a contemporary influenced by Frank Lloyd Wright—offers an irreplaceable waterfront lifestyle raised high on pillars that experienced absolutely zero flooding during the 2024 hurricanes. Packed with extensive system upgrades, the residence features major structural peace of mind (newer roof seal, complete DWV plumbing update, new water heater, serviced HVAC with bedroom mini-split, and EV charging) while offering a move-in-ready foundation waiting only for your special touches and personal flooring selections. Enjoy breathtaking water vistas through floor-to-ceiling glass walls, a private rebuilt dock with direct boating access, a 2018 primary suite remodel, an oversized flex room currently used as a gym, and an expansive screened enclosure featuring a pool, spa, and various patios and sitting areas. Complete with an oversized two-car garage plus ample exterior parking space for a boat and RV, and ideally located with easy access to Temple Terrace and USF, this is a rare, high-and-dry architectural sanctuary primed for a buyer to add those final custom finishing touches.
