Why buyers choose Bayshore Beautiful

Bayshore Beautiful is an upscale South Tampa neighborhood where, for a higher price tag, locals enjoy stately homes on Hillsborough Bay. It's anchored on the east side by the Bayshore Boulevard Greenway, a Tampa highlight and one of the world's longest continuous sidewalks. Vintage homes and tree canopies create a quiet, mature feel despite being about 5 miles from downtown. Zoning for top-rated schools, namely Plant High School, adds to the family-friendly appeal.

Vintage homes and high-rise condos on the high end of Tampa's market

The median single-family home price here is $1.25 million, significantly higher than Tampa's. This is a dynamic neighborhood with high-rise condos on the water and secluded, tree-lined streets further inland. It has an overall vintage feel with early 20th-century bungalows, midcentury ranch-styles, Colonial Revivals and Mediterranean Revivals, many of which have been updated. "When the median price is a million, that means you can still find some homes for $700,000 or $800,000, and some much smaller ones — about 1,000 square feet — for probably $600,000," says Dan Kempka, a broker associate with Serhant who has been living and working in the area for about 12 years. He says the Ritz-Carlton Residences Tampa, two new luxury condo buildings, have added to the area's prestige.

Bayshore Boulevard Greenway and other outdoor spaces

The Bayshore Boulevard Greenway is a standout amenity here, offering views of the bay. "You can go from Gandy Boulevard to the south all the way to downtown Tampa," Kempka says. "You can bike, run, rollerblade, whatever you want and no interruptions that whole 4.5 miles. You'll see people out there all day long, even into the night. It's kind of a gem of Tampa." Other nearby green spaces include:

  • Palma Ceia Little League fields: host youth baseball and softball programming in the spring.
  • Fred Ball Park: a shady green space with picnic tables and a natural spring, which is being restored.
  • Ballast Point Park: a waterfront area with a playground, a seasonal splash pad, a fishing pier and a boat ramp.
  • Tampa Yacht and County Club: private club offering boating opportunities and social meetups for members.

Tampa offers an event-heavy culture

Tampa's signature Gasparilla Pirate Fest crosses paths with Bayshore Beautiful. The pirate-themed festivities include a parade, which starts nearby on Bayshore Boulevard. There's much more to do in the area. "Tampa has all kinds of events," says Lewis Stewart, broker and owner of Exit Bayshore Realty. "There are art festivals, music festivals, sports. Every day there's something going on."

Tampa commutes are an easy 5 miles

Tampa commuters have a roughly 5-mile drive to downtown via State Route 618, also known as the Lee Roy Selmon Expressway. Rush hour traffic can slow down the trip. Hillsborough Area Regional Transit buses also serve the area. The MacDill Air Force Base, a major Tampa employer, sits about 4 miles south. Although the base is close, noise is not an issue here. "You definitely hear some plane traffic well south of Gandy (Boulevard), but not in Palma Ceia or Bayshore," Kempka says.
