Virtually Staged. There is something wonderfully different about a home whose character comes from the years, not the finishes. Welcome to 1203 E Chelsea St., a 1918 Tampa original, SE Seminole Heights 2-Story historic beauty where character isn't a design choice. It's the real thing.
Set on an exceptional 0.31-ACRE LOT,… Read More approximately 13,500 SF, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath, 1,974 SF home offers something increasingly difficult to find. Space, craftsmanship, architectural soul, and an EXPANSIVE BACKYARD.
Step through the GRAND FOYER and experience the gracious scale of an earlier era. The foyer takes center stage, connecting the front parlor, dining room, and staircase in a layout designed for both everyday living and entertaining. The spacious front parlor is framed by TALL PICTURE WINDOWS and a fireplace shared with the dining room. Together, these rooms create an inviting setting for any gatherings.
Throughout the home, the architectural details tell the story. Original WOOD FLOORS, DECORATIVE WOOD CASINGS surrounding the windows, 8-INCH BASEBOARDS, WAINSCOTING, PERIOD PICTURE RAILS, and (4) FOUR FIREPLACES bring a level of craftsmanship and authenticity that today's new construction cannot quite replicate. Here, the details aren't "vintage-inspired." They are the real deal.
Spacious kitchen featuring tall wood cabinetry, abundant counter space, and plenty of room to prep, opens to a versatile BONUS ROOM and full bath. Ideal for a home office, studio, or guest space. Includes a dedicated laundry area.
Upstairs, three spacious bedrooms await, including two sharing an adjoining fireplace and a third bathed in natural light.
Outside: a classic WRAP-AROUND FRONT PORCH, an EXPANSIVE REAR PORCH, and a fully FENCED BACKYARD with mature mango trees and a detached shed. It offers plenty of room for gardening, cookouts, pets, play, or bocce ball. This prime location puts you within 10 to 15 minutes of Downtown Tampa, Midtown, Channelside, the Port of Tampa, Armature Works, and the Riverwalk. The best restaurants, breweries, and coffee shops of Ybor City and Seminole Heights are just minutes from your front door. Plus, Tampa International Airport (TIA) is only about 15 minutes out, and the Gulf beaches are roughly 35 minutes away. Enjoy vibrant city living with effortless coastal access built right in.
If you appreciate original architecture, generous proportions, real wood, tall windows, fireplaces, architectural millwork, gracious porches, mature trees, and the unmistakable character of a home built in another era, this is a property worth experiencing in person. Read Less
