Woodlawn Park market snapshot (as of June 25, 2026): the median sale price is about $550K ($387 per sq ft), a buyer-leaning market (limited data). Based on 3 recent closings in live Stellar MLS data.
Woodlawn Park is an early 1920s residential neighborhood in central Tampa, platted along W Woodlawn Avenue in what is broadly known today as the Riverside Heights area, between North Florida Avenue and the Hillsborough River (neighborhood real estate guides, 2026). The raw MLS subdivision name appears as WOODLAWN PARK REV, a recorded plat artifact; in practice this is simply the Woodlawn Park section of Tampa's older near-downtown grid.
Like the surrounding Riverside Heights and Tampa Heights areas, the neighborhood was laid out during Tampa's 1920s building boom, when the cigar economy and the streetcar pushed new residential grids north of downtown (Tampa neighborhood histories, 2026). The original housing stock leans Craftsman bungalow, mixed over the decades with cottages, ranches, and newer infill and teardown rebuilds, so the homes vary widely in age and condition block to block.
Because this is an older grid rather than a builder community, the money is made or lost on the individual home, not the address. The drivers are the structural and mechanical condition, the depth and permit history of any renovation, the lot and orientation, and the flood and elevation picture near the river, all of which have to be read by address with a real inspection.
The pitch is walkable, near-downtown character: North Florida Avenue's local restaurants and shops, the Hillsborough River and Riverwalk, Armature Works and Tampa Heights, downtown Tampa, and the interstate are all close, with Tampa International Airport a manageable drive. The work is the diligence: read the condition and the renovation scope, pull the permit history, and confirm the FEMA flood zone by address before you buy the bungalow charm.
