Exceptional opportunity to acquire an established, fully equipped child care facility together with the real estate, ideally suited for an experienced operator looking to expand into the Tampa market or a first-time owner ready to enter the child care industry. The owner is is out of state total absentee owner.

This purpose-built masonry facility offers approximately 9,800 square feet under air, situated on a multiacre site with spacious classrooms, fenced outdoor playground areas, built in water play area, covered drop-off, and an oversized paved parking lot — a layout designed from the ground up for child care operations built in 2005. The center is currently licensed and operational with a capacity in the 140+.

The center participates in Florida's Voluntary Prekindergarten (VPK) and School Readiness programs, providing established, recurring revenue streams alongside private-pay tuition. The facility also holds Gold Seal Quality Care status, which qualifies the property for the Florida educational ad valorem exemption — a meaningful ongoing operating cost advantage for a buyer who maintains the designation.

The site is significantly under-built relative to its acreage, offering genuine room to expand the building, add licensed capacity, or grow enrollment under new ownership — a rare feature in one of Florida's fastest-growing counties, with excellent access to the surrounding residential corridor and major commuter routes.

The asking price for the business and real estate combined is below the county's assessed market value of the real estate, offering immediate equity to the right buyer. Possible owner financing available to qualified buyers.

The name and exact location of the center are confidential. Qualified buyers will be provided full details upon execution of a Confidentiality Agreement and Proof of funds.
