A peaceful neighborhood in South Tampa with well-rated schools
The Gray Gables neighborhood of Tampa offers a slice of quiet residential life — like a miniature suburb in the city. “It’s a cute little neighborhood without cross traffic, so it’s a great spot for families. It's in a really good school district too,” says Realtor Nicole Alonso, who works with Century 21 List with Beggins and has 10 years of experience in the area. Although it's mostly calm, the neighborhood still appeals to those wanting to jazz up their lifestyle — trendy shopping districts nearby promise a lively night out, and the Gray Gables Neighborhood Association plans a year-round calendar of events.

Colonial Revivals, Craftsman houses and ranch-style homes in Gray Gables
West of downtown Tampa, Gray Gables is a residential community mostly composed of walkable streets of single-family houses. These have front lawns with enough space for landscaped garden beds, which often feature tropical ferns, palm trees and oaks draped with Spanish moss. The backyards are large enough for decks and patios. The neighborhood has architectural styles galore: ranch-style homes, Colonial Revivals and Craftsman houses. At the upper end of the market, Craftsman homes and Colonial Revivals range from $1 million to $1.4 million. Meanwhile, ranch-style homes range from $500,000 to $800,000. “The majority of South Tampa is not very affordable for most families, but there are some smaller older homes that allow more people to take advantage of the school system,” Alonso says.
