ASK ABOUT BUYER INCENTIVES. Beautifully maintained by the long-term resident and owner of this property, this lovely home is in the Pink Streets neighborhood of St. Petersburg, a part of the city that is a hidden gem. This historic community represents a place where time seems to slow down, and the beauty of nature takes center stage as a tranquil haven in this vibrant city. Majestic oaks adorned with climbing golden pothos, palm trees, and many species of bromeliads and flowering plants welcome you as you drive up to the property. Neighboring properties have been the recipients of many of the owner's plants over the years creating somewhat of a Florida-friendly, botanical garden which welcomes you as you round the bend and approach the driveway. This home features an open floor plan and has been tastefully updated over the years. The first floor includes two bedrooms and two baths, an expansive kitchen and dining concept for optimal flow for entertainment, in addition to privacy accommodated by two individual family room areas. You will also enjoy the convenience of a large utility and laundry room on the main level with washer and dryer, sink, ample counter space and tons of storage. The features of the home include pristine hardwood floors, crown molding throughout, with most windows and all French/sliding doors hurricane-impact rated, large custom built-in closets in many of the rooms, an entertainer's kitchen and open dining concept featuring stainless steel GE appliances, including a convection oven, ample 42-inch cabinetry, oversized granite center island with sink and a spacious walk-in pantry. The second floor is dedicated to the primary suite, with four large built-in closets, a vanity area, French doors overlooking the backyard, a fully renovated primary bath with double vanities and an oversized shower, as well as a large loft area. This bonus space is ideal for a home office, reading area or play area, and also includes French doors with a view to the backyard. Two sliding and one set of French doors lead to the backyard sanctuary featuring a saltwater pool with a spacious deck, completely caged, including a covered back patio area. The lot is fully fenced, private and includes plenty of green space, a sprinkler system operating from a well, tropical plants and a garden shed draped in a stunning orange trumpet vine. The property has been pre-inspected. Accordingly, several suggested updates have been completed in 2024 which include new roof with architectural shingles, renovated full bath between the two main level bedrooms, new electrical panel, new electric water heater, new pool pump and new garage door. Significant capital improvements. The community itself dates back to the early 1900s and features pink pastel-hued concrete streets, an iconic symbol of this destination neighborhood. At the southernmost tip of Pinellas County, it features a variety of architectural styles, with many unique and magnificent homes, shaded by impressive mature trees and landscaping. Residents here are afforded access to and enjoy waterfront views, including the Skyway Bridge, the Katherine Bell Tippetts Park, the Tocobaga Indian Mound or Pinellas Point Temple Mound, Bay Vista Park with boat ramps, playground and recreation center, Maximo Park, nearby Boyd Hill Nature Preserve and all of this within a short drive to downtown St. Petersburg, with quick access to Interstate 275.
