Located in northeastern Hillsborough County, just 10 miles northeast of downtown Tampa, Florida are the communities of Temple Terrace and the University of South Florida. Home to approximately 25,000 residents, this area is known for rolling landscapes, grand oak trees, and Hillsborough River views. The community of Temple Terrace was originally established in the 1920s as a Mediterranean-Revival golf course community, and has grown and expanded over the years. The founding of the University of South Florida (USF) in 1956 helped to spur the local economy and real estate market, and home buyers interested in buying a home in the Temple Terrace/USF area today will find a great mix of single family homes, condos, and townhomes.
This part of the Tampa metropolitan area was once part of an exclusive 19,000 acre game preserve called “Riverhills,” and this distinction helped to protect the unique woodlands and wildlife that gives the Temple Terrace/USF area its character and appeal. Thanks to this protection, this area now boasts some of the largest specimens of live oak and longleaf pine in Tampa. Homebuyers will love the natural beauty and attractive homes in Temple Terrace, and in the USF area, with everything from condos, to townhomes to single family homes for sale. The many sizes and styles available in this area allows buyers to find the perfect real estate option for themselves and their families, and the broad price ranges reflect this diversity. With condos and townhomes for sale starting at just $14,900 and reaching $890,000, and single family homes for sale starting at $40,000 and reaching over $1 million, the real estate options in Temple Terrace and the USF area range from cosy and streamlined condos to magnificent mansions.
As one of the first planned golf-course communities in the United States, Temple Terrace possesses a unique character that can only be found in areas with deep historical roots, and the architecture of the local real estate reflects it. The fine collection of mid-century homes and buildings now give this area an attractive aesthetic, making it a great place to buy a home. With many residents working at the nearby USF, the campus and the community form a tight-knit neighborhood that places much importance on education, and the quality public and private schools of the area allow parents to provide their children with a top notch education, ensuring that the future of this community is in capable hands.
