About this home
A RARE CENTURY-OLD GEM, FULLY RENOVATED IN THE HEART OF RIVIERA BAY. Some homes you walk through. This one you fall for. Built in 1926 and lovingly restored nearly a century later, this Dutch Colonial Revival is one of those rare St. Petersburg homes that carries a soul you simply cannot build into new construction. The signature gambrel roofline, the arched front entry, the brick chimney standing proud against the sky. This is a house with stories already in its bones, now ready to start writing yours. Step through the front door and the light finds you first. Sun pours through the windows of the original sunroom, spilling warm across wide luxury vinyl plank floors and gathering at a wood-burning fireplace framed in custom millwork and dramatic stone. It is the kind of room that begs for slow Sunday mornings, a glass of wine at dusk, the people you love close by.
The heart of the home is a chef's kitchen that manages to feel both fresh and timeless: a generous quartz island in soft sage, glass-tile backsplash the color of sea foam, warm brass fixtures, glass-front cabinetry, and brand-new KitchenAid appliances including a 30" slide-in range with integrated downdraft. It is a kitchen built for real life, big gatherings, and everything in between. Three bedrooms and two full baths, plus a newly added half bath, give everyone room to breathe, anchored by a convenient first-floor primary suite that means you never have to think twice about stairs. Outside, your private world begins. Set on a rare oversized triangular corner lot, fully fenced for true privacy and seclusion, the expansive wood deck stretches beneath a canopy of mature trees. Morning coffee, evening cocktails, room to roam, room to garden, room to simply breathe. This kind of outdoor freedom almost never comes available in this pocket of St. Pete. And the peace of mind runs deeper than the charm. Every major system has been thoughtfully updated: 2020 roof, 2020 HVAC, new electrical panel, fully rewired first floor, second floor brought to current code, smart lighting (Alexa-compatible), and a new irrigation system. New impact windows throughout. Minutes from vibrant Downtown St. Pete, top hospitals, universities, and Riviera Bay Park (pickleball, tennis, basketball), with easy access to Tampa Bay beaches and I-275. Investors welcome, with strong co-living potential near USF St. Petersburg, St. Petersburg College, Eckerd College, and downtown. Historic charm. Modern comfort. A rare chance to own something with real heart. Come feel it for yourself....
