2001 E 2ND AVENUE UNIT 8 TAMPA FL 33605 MLS #TB8501160

A refined take on industrial, city living! Welcome to this expansive 1-bedroom, 1.5-bath loft with versatile FLEX/OFFICE space at the iconic Box Factory Lofts, one of Tampa’s most architecturally distinctive and historically rich residential communities. This south-facing unit with 2024 AC and newer roof overlooks 2nd Avenue, where natural light pours in and Ybor’s historic charm becomes part of your everyday backdrop. Originally a cigar box manufacturing facility, this landmark property has been thoughtfully transformed into an exclusive collection of residences with resort-style community pool & courtyard that honor its heritage while embracing modern design. Inside, soaring ceilings, dramatic architectural lines, and upgraded, custom epoxy-finished concrete flooring create a clean, contemporary edge while preserving the industrial aesthetic. Exposed block walls, oversized windows with custom shades, and visible industrial ductwork add depth and texture throughout. The main living area flows seamlessly into a well-appointed kitchen featuring stainless steel appliances, generous cabinetry, and a sleek bar-top connection, ideal for both entertaining and everyday living. A thoughtfully positioned flex space upon entry offers the perfect setting for a home office or creative studio, complemented by a convenient guest powder bath. Upstairs, the custom lofted level creates a unique, almost treehouse-like retreat overlooking the living space below. This private escape features a spacious walk-in closet with custom built-in and a beautifully updated en-suite bath with double sinks & in-unit stackable laundry. Drive right up to your premium COVERED GARAGE corner parking space, another stand out and highly sought-after feature within the community. Additional amenities include secure key-fob access to the building for ultimate security, climate-controlled bike storage, and a covered parking garage, delivering both comfort and convenience. Positioned in the heart of Ybor City, you are just blocks away from acclaimed dining, craft breweries, coffee shops, live music, and boutique retail, along with easy access to the TECO Streetcar, Downtown Tampa, Water Street, 275, Crosstown, and the Riverwalk. With the continued growth of the nearby GasWorx development, this location offers not only convenience and fun, but a compelling long-term upside and top tier investment. More than a residence, this is your opportunity to own a statement in character, design, and location and be a part of Tampa’s evolving story.
