Property Description

Let’s get this out of the way: the kitchen is the showstopper. Not “nice for its age.” Not “updated-ish.” A real kitchen. Granite countertops, classic subway tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, a large center island with storage on the breakfast-bar side, double convection oven, induction cooktop, and a pot filler right where it belongs. The kitchen opens directly to the dining room because this home understands how people actually live. Truly a chef’s delight, whether you’re cooking for one or entertaining a crowd. Step from the dining room into the huge living room and you’ll notice a perfectly placed flex space as you enter — ideal for a bar area, reading nook, or display space. It’s a small detail that makes a big difference and keeps the home from feeling cookie-cutter. The living room itself is made for entertaining — game nights, holidays, and everything in between. Out back is Florida done right: a pool remodeled in 2024 with a spillover spa, new pool pump (2025), paver pool deck, and a gazebo perfect for shaded lounging or evening cocktails. The paver driveway and entrance set the tone before you even walk inside. Move right in and start enjoying it. The primary suite is generously sized and features an ensuite bath with dual sinks, a walk-in closet with a closet system, and room to unwind. The split bedroom floor plan gives everyone space. One guest bedroom includes dual closets, and there’s also a linen closet and a full built-in storage closet near two of the guest bedrooms. One bedroom is tucked away and ideal for a home office or quiet retreat. Additional highlights include Plantation shutters throughout, an inside laundry room, garage storage, double-pane windows, and an impact-rated back door. Major updates are already done: Roof 2013. 2024: HVAC new + pool remodeled. 2025: kitchen, bathrooms, flooring, interior paint, water heater, appliances, and new pool pump. This isn’t a “bring your vision” home. This is a bring your furniture and your swimsuit home. Easy access to Downtown St. Pete, Tampa, I-275, beaches, restaurants, shopping, and more!
