Opportunity knocks with this rare in-town acreage nestled in the heart of Forest Hills. Situated on nearly one acre and backing up to serene, city-owned watershed conservation land, this charming cottage offers privacy, natural beauty, and endless potential. Explore the possabilities of building more than one home on this beautiful property or keeping your extreme privacy nestled on this HUGE lot. Mature oaks canopy the expansive backyard, providing a peaceful setting just minutes from Babe Zaharias Golf Course and all the conveniences of central Tampa. The existing home, featuring 3 bedrooms and 1 bath, is in need of significant renovation and is being sold as-is, making it ideal for investors, builders, or buyers looking to create a custom retreat. With ceramic tile flooring throughout and a solid wood frame structure, the bones are there for your vision to come to life. The layout includes a spacious living area, eat-in kitchen, and three generously sized bedrooms. Exterior highlights include a covered front porch, detached oversized garage/workshop, and ample room to expand, or even subdivide for a family compound. Located on a paved street with public utilities, this is one of the few large lots left in Forest Hills with both natural charm and redevelopment potential. Easy to show and ready for your ideas—don’t miss this unique chance to build or restore in a fantastic location.
