Essex Downs - Tampa Florida Homes for Sale

If you’ve been dreaming of an affordable waterfront property with direct access to the Gulf, this is the opportunity you’ve been waiting for. This beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom manufactured home sits on a 49-foot saltwater canal lot with direct access to Rocky Creek, Tampa Bay, and the Gulf of Mexico—offering the perfect setup for boating, fishing, kayaking, or simply enjoying the Florida waterfront lifestyle. Previously operated as a successful Airbnb, this turnkey property comes fully furnished and is ready for immediate personal use, seasonal enjoyment, or continued income potential. Nearly every aspect of the home has been updated within the last four years, including new appliances, flooring, lighting, ceiling fans, windows, doors, HVAC system, and a completely resealed roof. Both bathrooms have been fully renovated, and a new floating dock adds even more value for waterfront enthusiasts. Enjoy some of the best fishing Florida has to offer right from your backyard, with snook, redfish, speckled trout, blue crab, Spanish mackerel, cobia, and snapper all found in the surrounding waters. The canal provides quick boating access to Tampa Bay and the Gulf, making it easy to spend your days on the water. Best of all, you own the land—there’s no lot rent, no HOA, and no CDD fees. The property also experienced no flood or wind damage during the 2024 hurricanes, offering additional peace of mind. Conveniently located just minutes from I-4, shopping, restaurants, and Tampa International Airport, this waterfront retreat combines affordability, flexibility, and coastal living all in one.
