Description

This meticulously restored 1923 gem is nestled in Old SE on an oversized corner lot filled with majestic trees and world class landscaping. Just a 5 minute drive from downtown St. Petersburg and only two blocks from the Tampa Bay Waterfront and Lassing Park. A masterful renovation was completed in late 2017, including new roof, electrical, plumbing, doors, dual zoned HVAC, whole house generator, tankless water heater and water softener system and reconditioned original windows. The two entries of the home, the front porch and the side porch, invite you into a classic/modern living area masterpiece. Soaring ceilings, crown molding, stained glass accent windows, custom lighting and custom window treatments will allow multiple conversation areas for friends and family. Enjoy working, reading or hosting an intimate dinner, watch your favorite movies and sporting events, invite friends and family over for a game of cards, backgammon or bourbon tasting. Adjacent to the well-appointed kitchen is a large dining area just waiting for holiday gatherings. Novice and expert chefs alike will enjoy the island hosting an induction cooktop with telescopic downdraft and plentiful work area. Custom glass front cabinetry, exquisite quartz countertops, ample pantry storage, dedicated coffee bar, gleaming commercial style stainless steel appliances including a wine refrigerator, state of the art convection wall oven and microwave. Counter height bar seating for guests completes the stage. A convenient half bath is located just beyond the kitchen. Step out to the back porch and you may never want to leave. The totally private outdoor living area complete with a natural gas grill allows for alfresco dining along with a large seating area to enjoy the surrounding landscape. Giant oaks, prolific mango, avocado and Meyer lemon trees, and mature staghorn ferns steal the show among the backdrop of blooming annuals and perennials. Irrigation is provided by a well. Reclaimed water is available for irrigation to the remainder of the lawn and landscaping. Follow the grand staircase up to the primary bedroom featuring an ensuite bath with custom tiled floors, a quartz countertop, dual vanities and a large walk-in shower. A sitting room bathed in natural light and walk in closet complete this private suite. Two additional bedrooms, a convenient full bath, custom designed cedar closet and generous sized laundry room complete the footprint. Detached from the primary residence with alley access is an air-conditioned garage complete with a high speed electrical vehicle charger. Information can be provided regarding the possibilities of renovating the garage into an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) for potential rental income, or, if you prefer, a home office, artist loft and/or gallery, due to the area’s Artist Enclave Overlay District designation.
