1707 S HESPERIDES STREET

Cannot get enough of this ultra-charming, storybook pool home perfectly situated on a corner lot along a quiet, tree-lined street in the heart of Sunset Park. Thoughtfully renovated while maintaining its timeless character, this home blends warmth, charm, and modern functionality in all the right ways. The sellers love the neighborhood so much, they’re only moving a block away! No water intrusion during 2024 storms!! The property features three bedrooms in the main house, plus a spacious 15x20 suite above the garage complete with a full bathroom — ideal as a guest retreat, home office, gym, playroom, or au pair suite. A thoughtfully designed split floor plan offers a downstairs primary suite, while two generously sized upstairs bedrooms share a beautifully renovated bathroom completed in 2017. Between 2020–2021, the entire main level underwent a comprehensive renovation — all permitted and completed by a licensed general contractor. In 2021, the pool was completely remodeled, transforming the backyard into a true private retreat. Additional major improvements include full exterior siding replacement in 2022 and installation of all new impact-rated windows in 2023. The light-filled kitchen opens seamlessly to the living and dining spaces and features shaker cabinetry, stone countertops, stainless steel appliances, a large center island with seating, and views overlooking the backyard oasis. Warm hardwood floors, designer lighting, crown molding, and carefully curated finishes throughout create a home that feels elevated yet incredibly inviting. The primary suite is a true retreat with dual vanities, wainscoting detail, a walk-in closet, and a beautifully tiled walk-in shower. Laundry is conveniently located just off the ensuite. A charming pool bath was also added during the renovation, increasing the home’s heated square footage by approximately 50 square feet and offering easy access for guests enjoying the backyard. And speaking of the backyard — this one is special. The resort-style pool area with child safety fence (not shown) is surrounded by mature landscaping and multiple entertaining spaces, creating the perfect setting for everything from quiet mornings to hosting friends and family. The detached upstairs suite, pergola accents, and classic architecture give the property a character and functionality that is hard to find in South Tampa. Located in the highly sought-after Mabry / Coleman / Plant school district and walkable to both Mabry Elementary, Coleman and St. Mary's Episcopal Day School, this home combines timeless charm, modern updates, and an unbeatable Sunset Park lifestyle.
