A FAMILY SANCTUARY ON THE HILLSBOROUGH RIVER! Imagine your entire family living side by side, each with your own space, yet united on one remarkable riverside parcel in the heart of Tampa. Elevated high on a hill in FLOOD ZONE X—protected and untouched through recent hurricanes due to its natural elevation, downriver flow of dam protection—this rare estate is designed for those who value FAMILY, SELF-SUFFICIENCY, AND LIVING OFF THE LAND TOGETHER. Here, four unique dwellings come together to form a true MULTI-GENERATIONAL RETREAT: A COUNTRY-STYLE COTTAGE with two bedrooms, two baths, and dual kitchens—perfect for shared meals and family gatherings, A THREE-STORY BUNGALOW with three bedrooms, three baths, a rare basement for storage and canning, plus a sauna and swim spa for wellness and relaxation, A STUDIO LOFT with soaring ceilings and kitchenette, ideal for a young adult, in-laws, or creative retreat, A RIVERSIDE COTTAGE/BOAT HOUSE, a cozy escape with compost facilities, perched right at the water’s edge. LIVING IN HARMONY WITH NATURE. Stroll the winding pathways that connect each home through your own BOTANICAL GARDEN-STYLE LANDSCAPE. The property overflows with fruit trees, herbs, and vegetables—bananas, papayas, mangos, guava, jackfruit, dragon fruit, figs, mulberries, sugarcane, cassava, spinach and curry trees, and so much more. Wildlife flourishes here, with the Hillsborough River flowing quietly at your doorstep. A RESILIENT LIFESTYLE. This is more than a home—it’s a SANCTUARY FOR THE FUTURE. From the basement prepped for secure storage and canned goods, to composting facilities and thriving gardens, everything is built for INDEPENDENCE AND SUSTAINABILITY. Yet, you’re only minutes from shops, dining, I-275, and the best of Tampa. A RIVERFRONT HAVEN. Launch a boat from your backyard and cruise directly to LETTUCE LAKE PARK, or enjoy serene evenings overlooking the water. Across the river, a golf park preserves your view of untouched greenery, ensuring your daily backdrop is nature itself. FOR FAMILIES DREAMING OF LIVING CLOSE, GROWING TOGETHER, AND CREATING A RESILIENT FUTURE IN HARMONY WITH NATURE, THIS HILLSBOROUGH RIVER COMPOUND IS A ONCE-IN-A-LIFETIME OPPORTUNITY.
