UNDER CONTRACT, ACCEPTING BACK UP OFFERS! Experience the allure of this exceptional Mediterranean home, situated on one of the LARGEST plots in Crescent Lake (1.5 LOTS) in a NO FLOOD ZONE. Enjoy the lake breeze in one of the most sought-after neighborhoods in St. Petersburg. This two-story BLOCK residence with impact windows and a SALTWATER POOL spans 2,730 square feet and boasts five bedrooms, two full and two half bathrooms as well as a one-bedroom IN-LAW SUITE with walk-in shower (336 square feet), and a laundry room.

Bonus: thanks to its SOLAR panels, save on your electric bill and charge your EV! This stunning home, freshly repainted, features meticulously preserved old-world craftsmanship coupled with high ceilings and vintage finishes that distinguish it from any other property. The original beautifully preserved oak and pine hardwood floors throughout, the brick wood burning fireplace or the exquisite beveled glass windows in the large dining room, are just a few examples of the unique charm that abounds in this residence. Upon entering through the arch-top doorway onto the tiled front porch, the open living/dining room is awash with natural light and an air of sophistication. Equipped with granite countertops, wood cabinets, stainless steel appliances, including a double oven and gas stove, a mud room, and a spacious butler's pantry, this kitchen is perfect for hosting elegant dinner parties. The first floor includes an office with a pool/covered lanai view, a dedicated laundry room with storage cabinets, and a spacious bedroom and bathroom. Ascend the spectacular staircase to discover four more bedrooms, including the primary bedroom with access to a huge screened balcony (14x14), ideal for your morning coffee or tea! The HUGE landscaped backyard with complete privacy is equally impressive, with a newer saltwater pool (2017), a newer covered lanai with travertine tiles (576 sqft, also built in 2017) complete with a bar and sink, a shed for additional storage and even a half bathroom for pool days. The updated in-law suite includes a kitchenette, ideal for accommodating guests or for additional income. Since this home sits high and dry in one of the highest points in Pinellas County, you are NOT required to have flood insurance (flood zone X). Updates include impact windows, solar panels (2021, valued at $82,500, all paid off), new membrane roof (2023), a tankless hot water heater, electrical/plumbing updates. AMAZING LOCATION! You're walking distance from Crescent Lake Park where you can walk or jog the trail, play a game of tennis or pickleball at the courts, take your furry friend to the dog park to make some new pals, let the little ones loose at the playground, or have a scrumptious picnic while taking in the breathtaking scenery and wildlife. You are just a quick 5 minutes from Downtown St. Pete and only a short and sweet 20 minute drive to St. Pete Beach, Treasure Island, and Sunset Beach where you can witness the most epic sunsets and chill out on some of the softest white sand you've ever felt. This location is seriously a dream come true! Due to work reasons, the current owners are unable to relocate from California.
