Property Description
An expansive lot (.44 acres--2 large buildable lots) with 163 ft of water frontage, a professionally landscaped botanical garden, a riverside outdoor living and dining patio, and a well maintained dock and seawall. A breath taking 150 yard view of Hillsborough River describes a property where you may bring to life the riverfront home you have always wanted. A list of the features currently on the property follows. An architect can help you decide which features that you would want to incorporate into your building plan. OUTDOOR LIVING/DINING PATIO: A pathway leads to a riverside open patio--a dining area perched high and overlooking the river. This patio’s border is an attractive cool gray ledger-styled stone with path lighting and a stone path to the dock below. THE BOTANICAL GARDENS AND OUTLOOK/STORAGE BUILDING: The oak trees shade the lush pathways of a variety of plant species found throughout the professionally landscaped lots. The pathways create interest with bubbling water fountains, artwork, butterfly gardens, and fabulous views of the river. At one point in the far lot, the garden has a stairway to the lower level of the seawall. Wildlife abounds within the garden making birdwatching an at-home sport. Just the gardens alone are idyllic but there is even more! The Red Shed: You have yet to see a “storage shed” as unique as this one. It has a pitched roof, room for bikes and tools, connected electricity, and a screened porch overlooking the river. THE DOCK AND THE RIVER: The dock is an enchanting place to sit and watch the wildlife that inhabits the area—birds, fish, manatees, and more. Steps from the dock makes launching the dockside stored kayaks easy. Next to the dock is a grand oak with limbs well over the seawall and river. This part of the river is a no wake zone. Note, an upriver bypass canal controls flooding in this area, and the home is at an elevation of 11 Ft. Also on the property is a 1517 sq ft 1941 charming and beautifully renovated 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom cottage.
