Virtually Staged. The first thing you see when you step inside this 3-bedroom, 2-bath pool home is the backyard beyond the French doors. Located in the gated community of Whispering Oaks, the home offers an inviting layout with two living areas, a separate dining room, and an eat-in kitchen that opens to the main living space. Bay windows at the front of the home bring in natural light and add to its charm and character. New vinyl flooring and fresh interior paint carry through the home. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances and champagne bronze fixtures, while both bathrooms have been updated. The primary suite includes a walk-in closet, dual vanities, a glass-enclosed walk-in shower, and French doors leading directly to the covered patio and pool. Two additional bedrooms share the hallway bath. An indoor laundry room with washer, dryer, and overhead cabinets, plenty of storage, and a 2-car garage complete the interior. Outside is where this home really shines. The covered patio is ready for entertaining, and the resurfaced pool features new tile and pool equipment. Mature palms and landscaping frame the fenced backyard, with peaceful views of the pond and conservation area. A rear gate provides access to the pond, offering a quiet spot to pause, unwind, and watch the birds and wildlife that visit the water. Whispering Oaks is a quaint, sidewalk-lined neighborhood with a community park and playground a short walk from the home. Its location near Dale Mabry Highway provides convenient access to shopping, dining, Tampa International Airport, International Plaza, Raymond James Stadium, Midtown, and Downtown Tampa. The home is located in Flood Zone X. Roof (2020). Water heater (2015). AC (2013).
