Inside, you are welcomed by the warmth of original hardwood floors that flow throughout the home, adding timeless character and charm. The inviting living room features a restored brick fireplace and an abundance of natural light, creating a comfortable gathering space. Just beyond, the spacious dining room includes a full-wall window seat with ample storage, making it both beautiful and functional for everyday meals or entertaining. The kitchen is thoughtfully designed and large enough to accommodate an eat-in breakfast area. The primary bedroom offers excellent storage with two closets, while the primary bathroom features a beautifully refinished clawfoot tub perfect for relaxing soaks. The second bedroom also offers generous storage and convenient access to the hall bathroom, and the home includes an indoor laundry area for added convenience. Outside, a long driveway provides plenty of parking and leads to a detached two-car garage with potential to be converted into a mother-in-law suite or guest space. The home is conveniently located near Riviera Bay Park, where residents enjoy scenic recreation trails, an outdoor exercise area, a playground, a boat ramp, and a community garden, making this charming home the perfect blend of historic character and modern comfort in one of Northeast St. Pete’s most desirable areas.
