About this home
502 HILLCREST AVENUE
BIG PRICE IMPROVEMENT!! MOTIVATED SELLER. SELLER IS READY TO GO! One of the best neighborhoods in Tarpon Springs. 502 Hillcrest Ave is the epitome of Tarpon Springs proper! This home has only sold 1 time since original construction. Located on a high and dry hill yet surrounded by waterfront and million dollar homes. A new standing seam metal roof was installed by Arrys Roofing last year. The home has two new bathrooms and a spectacular remodeled kitchen! The original oak floors run throughout the house and are in excellent condition! Lots of charm with the custom window casing and built in shelving. The outside has a spacious carport off the kitchen and brick patio surrounded by mature landscape! If one is needing more space or another bedroom, look to the huge attic as an easy way to create a proper master bedroom and bath! Envision two dormers on the roof for added light and cozy nooks. The location is as central as it gets for Tarpon Springs, walkable to the beaches and downtown! Tarpon Springs is a well established town in Pinellas county and founded in 1887. The historic downtown has a great vibe and is diverse in the offering of goods and services. Beautiful boutiques, eateries, breweries etc. Also walking distance to the world famous sponge docks and our woking waterfront! NO FLOOD INSURANCE NEEDED

Value check
Is the price right?
The internet’s favorite home-value number comes from a single automated model that has never seen the street, the finishes, or the view — which is why it routinely misses by tens of thousands of dollars. The edgeAI estimate combines multiple independent data sources with our team’s on-the-ground expertise in this exact market.
