Welcome to Mimosa House, a 1925 Craftsman bungalow in South Seminole Heights that offers a refreshing escape from the sea of “millennial gray.” This South Seminole Heights Beautification Award winning home is unapologetically colorful, full of personality, and rich with original character and vintage details that tell a story you simply can’t replicate. Inside, you won’t find the stripped and flipped sameness that dominates today’s market. Instead, you’re greeted with warm, inviting spaces, sunlit nooks, and a layout that feels both functional and creatively inspiring. The kitchen is truly one of a kind, featuring hand distressed real wood cabinetry, a generous walk in pantry, and reclaimed slate chalkboards from the historic Jefferson High School repurposed as countertops, equal parts functional and conversation piece. Original features remain beautifully intact, including a brick fireplace, oak and heart pine floors, a classic clawfoot tub, craftsman moldings, and original wavy glass windows that cast a soft, almost cinematic light throughout the home. Upstairs, you’ll find delightfully quirky and cozy spaces that add to the charm and uniqueness of the layout. Every corner of this home invites creativity and individuality. Step outside to a generous south facing backyard designed for both relaxation and inspiration. A large patio crafted from reclaimed Chicago street bricks creates the perfect setting for entertaining, with additional materials already on site for future pathways or expansion. There is a designated space for a future jacuzzi, complete with gas lines for an outdoor fireplace and grill, creating an ideal gathering area. The former 18’ x 18’ garage or pool house foundation remains with grandfathered easements, offering an incredible opportunity for a future studio, workshop, or accessory dwelling unit. A rainwater catchment system is also in place and ready for connection. In the warmer months, the front yard comes alive with Florida native Sunshine Mimosa, a unique, touch sensitive ground cover that adds both charm and ecological value. Major system updates provide peace of mind, including a roof from 2011, HVAC from 2019, and a new gas on demand tankless water heater installed in 2020. The bathroom has been fully renovated in 2026 with new tile also added to the bathroom, pantry, and laundry areas. The home is wired for surround sound in both the front and central living spaces and includes a reverse osmosis water system. Situated approximately 16 feet above sea level, the home offers added peace of mind while still enjoying those classic front porch evenings watching Tampa’s summer storms roll in. Located in the highly sought after South Seminole Heights neighborhood, you’re surrounded by a strong sense of community and walkability. Just minutes to local favorites, about a mile to Armature Works, two miles to Downtown Tampa, and with easy access to I 275, Tampa International Airport, and everything that makes Tampa Bay living so special. This is not a cookie cutter home. This is a living canvas, warm, slightly bohemian, and ready for someone who wants character, history, and a space to create something truly their own. Schedule your private showing today.

If you’re coming from I-275, take exit 47 for Hillsborough Ave and head east. Turn right onto N Boulevard, then left onto W River Heights Ave. The property will be on your right.
