5006 W LONGFELLOW AVENUE, Tampa, FL

Welcome to a rental that feels less like a temporary stop and more like your own private South Tampa retreat. Set on an exceptionally large, beautifully landscaped lot in sought-after Sunset Park, this 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home offers something increasingly hard to find in South Tampa: space to spread out, privacy, and an incredible backyard built for enjoying Florida year-round. The outdoor living is the standout. Step outside to a sprawling fenced backyard surrounded by mature trees and greenery, with plenty of open lawn for the family, pets, entertaining or simply enjoying the extra breathing room. At the center is a heated pool and spa framed by a travertine deck, while the screened lanai creates an easy extension of the home for outdoor dinners, weekend lounging or watching the game without giving up the comfort of being under cover. It is the kind of backyard that quickly becomes the place everyone wants to be. Inside, approximately 3,500 square feet gives you a flexible floor plan that works beautifully for everyday living. The first-floor primary suite offers privacy and convenience, with a renovated primary bath and generous walk-in closets. The kitchen opens to casual dining and family spaces, while a separate formal dining room provides room for entertaining. A dedicated office with built-ins and a Murphy bed easily doubles as guest space when needed. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms and a large bonus room provide plenty of flexibility for a playroom, media room, second living area or homework space. The home's expansive front porch, complete with porch swings, adds even more charm and another place to relax and enjoy the neighborhood. Located in the highly sought-after Plant High School district, Sunset Park offers one of South Tampa's most established neighborhood settings while keeping you just minutes from Westshore, Tampa International Airport, Bayshore Boulevard and Hyde Park Village. With a two-car garage, separate laundry room, abundant storage and indoor and outdoor spaces that genuinely make day-to-day life easier, this is a rare opportunity to rent a home that offers both the space of a true family residence and South Tampa living. If the backyard matters, the location matters, and you want a home with room to actually live, this one delivers.
