Neighborhood

Bordered by the Hillsborough River on its east side, Wellswood is a popular neighborhood located about five miles north of Downtown Tampa. Ranch-style homes sit along shady, tree-lined streets with front yards dotted with palm trees and tropical foliage. The name “Wellswood” has nothing to do with wells – but quite a lot to do with woods. In 1949, James Wishart and his wife, Edna Wells Wishart, built the first house in the area. It was originally called Wells Park, but because of all of the pine and oak trees in the neighborhood, the name as changed to Wellswood.

The Wellswood Civic Association hosts a variety of events for residents, including a Holiday Craft Fair and Breakfast with Santa, Wellswood Eats, and Wellswood Paint Night Out. Most events are held at the Wellswood Civic Center, which is located off Wishart Boulevard in the heart of Wellswood. For more entertainment, head north to visit Zoo Tampa at Lowry Park, Busch Gardens Tampa Bay, and Adventure Island.

Love the location - issues with move-in. Forced to wait until 3pm to be able to take possession and apartment was still not ready. Even after confirming it would be available several times prior to move in, paint on the door was wet and more work still to do. Very frustrating since we took the day off work and rented a truck which needed to be returned that evening.

Hello, thank you for your feedback, and we apologize for the inconvenience you experienced during your move-in. We will work to improve our processes to prevent this from happening in the future and appreciate your patience. Sincerely- The Legacy Staff

Living at The Legacy has been a great experience so far. The townhomes are beautiful and clean. The Staff and Maintenance are very responsive. Location is extremely walkable. My only complaint with this place is how much it floods. Definitely will have to evacuate if a big hurricane comes through.

Love this place. I have caring neighbors that keep an eye out for each other. Recently, someone hit my vehicle parked in the lot in front of my unit. And people reacted and notified me of it. A couple of them went around the complex and found the person so I could notify the police. They really are a great bunch of people.

The location compared to work is great, but cost for what you get is a little upside down. Also, maintenance took like 5 times of my closet flooding before the old air condition was truly fixed.

My car’s been broken into at least 3 times in the four years I’ve lived here. Every other month there’s a new “improvement” going on that doesn't actually change the quality of life, but instead just inconveniences everybody. There’s probably something better out there.

Property Manager at The Legacy Apartments, Responded To This Review

We're truly sorry to hear about the issues you've experienced. We appreciate your feedback and will look into ways to improve the community.

Work order experience

I was really bummed that just a few weeks after moving in, several things needed fixing. These included the blinds to the balcony, insulation on the a/c, a faulty balcony screen door, and a dead garbage disposal. The staff at the leasing office and the maintenance folk were so quick to get these things fixed for me. I have several new parts, maintenance was so kind to my pets, and they kept their working area clean. Additionally, one of the gentlemen who came to replace the garbage disposal showed me how to use the dishwasher since I had never used one before. I thought that was very sweet. Overall, I had a really great experience. We have all heard horrors about maintenance calls but not at The Legacy. The service here is prompt and excellent!

Hello, We're sorry for the initial inconvenience, but thrilled to hear our maintenance team was able to quickly resolve the issues and provide excellent service. Thank you for sharing your positive experience! Sincerely- The Legacy Staff

The Legacy is only minutes from the heart of downtown, nestled in the family friendly neighborhood of Wellswood. It’s located a few minutes from the interstate and the major thoroughfare of Hillsborough Avenue, bus route, supermarkets and lots of trendy restaurants and watering holes. The community is quiet, clean and the owners management informed me they have renovation plans pending. All in all, The Legacy is a nice community to live in.

We love our apartment! Lovely place we have made our own. Our only issues have been with the appliances - some issues with our dishwasher and air conditioner, handles falling off of cabinets, and maintenance doesn't always fix them properly - issues sometimes reoccur, but it isn't anything major. Would recommend to others!! Nice community - space to walk, a nice pool, laundry facilities and a gym.

Esmeralda is the sweetest person and helped me so much throughout the whole process of moving in! We have only been here for a week now but so far, so good!!! I love that its only a 3 minute walk to the laundry, gym, pool, leasing center and the mail box! Also, love how they keep the community CLEAN! Very close to restaurants, breweries, grocery stores and bus lines! Very happy here!!!!

We've lived here for over twenty years! I live my view from the patio! And we've met some wonderful people in the past. But there aren't as many community events as we have had in the past. It's hard to meet people if everyone stays indoors!

I needed to move into a new place with haste, and the location of The Legacy suited my needs. Thankfully, they were able to get me approved and into a new apartment within just a couple days. I have only been here a little over a week, but thus far my experience has been a positive one. Nice community/amenities, well-maintained apartments, and most importantly they have a very helpful and personable management staff.

My family and I have lived at The Legacy apartments for nearly five years. There are good things about this community, helpful office staff and maintenance team. Conveniently located near the interstate and other major thoroughfares. Our unit looks out over the Hillsborough River which grants us some fantastic sunrises and sunsets. Of course, it’s not perfect for it is as old as I am and shows it. Overall, we’ve enjoyed living here as it’s quite and in a neighborhood good for walking.

I love the apartment layouts and the new blinds. I also love the little jungle in the back or so, that's what we call it. Andthe bark park. And also, the laundry room facilities are always clean. And so is the gym, and the pricing is amazing, and the neighborhood is great.
