Affordable South Tampa ownership without the luxury-price hangover. Priced at $169,900, this move-in ready 1-bedroom, 1-bath condo offers one of the lowest entry points into one of Tampa’s most sought-after neighborhoods. Located in desirable Flood Zone X — where flood insurance is typically not required by lenders — this condo combines location, flexibility, and low-maintenance living in a market where affordability in South Tampa is becoming increasingly rare. Just minutes from Midtown, Hyde Park, the University of Tampa, MacDill, downtown Tampa, and Tampa International Airport, the unit features an in-unit washer and dryer, updated paint and finishes, laminate wood-look flooring, and a bright, functional layout ideal for first-time buyers, professionals, investors, or parents seeking housing near UT. With no pending assessments and a competitive COA fee of $481/month, which includes water, trash, exterior maintenance, pool access, dog park, and grounds upkeep, the property offers a more predictable ownership profile than many Florida condos currently on the market. Estimated ownership scenario: At $169,900, this condo may present an attractive alternative to renting for qualified buyers, especially given its prior rental history of $1,650/month. Buyers are encouraged to consult their lender for a personalized monthly ownership estimate based on their qualifications, loan program, down payment, insurance, escrows, and lender terms.
