The Golfview neighborhood takes its name from the fact that it literally surrounds the Palma Ceia Golf Course, designed by influential golf course designer Donald Ross in 1916. Area residents looking to take advantage of the central South Tampa location and serene views afforded by the greens, slowly grew this community to its current stately status.
Great houses in a great central location make this community of stately residences a prime area for those looking for the right neighborhood to call home. Slowly growing to its current stately status around Tampa’s second golf course designed by noted and influential golf course designer Donald Ross in 1916, Golf View features beautiful views on winding brick streets shaded by grand oaks. Boasting a population of almost 1,400 occupying close to 550 homes, this area is comprised of modest condos and townhomes as well as grand estates. Adding to the desirability of this South Tampa neighborhood is easy access to all Tampa amenities including downtown Tampa, MacDill AFB, Tampa International Airport and I-275.
