1018 Columbus Dr Tampa, FL 33605

Listing details for 1018 Columbus Dr, Tampa, FL 33605 : Welcome to Ybor City’s vibrant core, where history, culture, and modern living come together in a way only this neighborhood can offer. Set on an oversized lot, this rare property at 1018 E Columbus Ave. delivers TWO fully independent homes — an 1,836 sq ft 4/2 main home and an 1,824 sq ft 3/2 carriage house — along with a sparkling pool and the kind of flexibility today’s buyers crave. Step into the main home, and you’ll immediately feel the warmth of its original character: built-ins, French doors, and a versatile bonus room that adapts to your lifestyle. Fresh NEW CARPET (April 2026), INTERIOR WALL PAINT (2025), and EXTERIOR PAINT (2020) give the home a crisp, updated feel. Solar panels with a backup battery offset roughly 35% of the home’s electricity, offering meaningful monthly savings and insurance appeal. Outdoors, the property transforms into a private retreat. The INGROUND POOL and GAS HEATED SPA are framed by lush landscaping, a pavered deck, and multiple lounging zones. With a gas tankless water heater and a dedicated gas line for grilling, the space is designed for effortless entertaining or quiet evenings under the palms. The CARRIAGE HOUSE expands your options even further. With 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, its own electric meter, and its own solar array (covering 100% of electricity in summer and 65% the rest of the year), it’s ideal for guests, extended family, or income generation. A NEW HVAC (2024) adds peace of mind and efficiency. Additional features include a wide bungalow style front porch, a 24' x 6' rear porch, privacy fencing, a decorative brick knee wall, and parking for 5–6 vehicles plus street parking. And with the property located outside the flood zone, buyers gain both confidence and cost savings. Living at 1018 E Columbus Dr. places you steps from everything that makes Tampa magnetic — Ybor’s iconic 7th Avenue, La Segunda, Blind Tiger, Water Works Park, Armature Works, Sparkman Wharf, the Tampa Museum of Art, and the Florida Aquarium. Whether you’re drawn to nightlife, parks, waterfront views, or local dining, this address puts it all within minutes.
