In the coveted Greater Old Northeast neighborhood, just moments from the vibrant energy of downtown St. Petersburg, stands a home that perfectly bridges eras—a newer construction estate, built on 1.5 lots that has embraced the romance and warmth of Old Florida. From the street, its inviting façade and lazy front porch feel like a scene from a simpler time, ready for cool fall evenings with friends, a glass of wine in hand, and the faint sound of laughter drifting into the night. Step inside and you’ll find that the charm of the past has been beautifully paired with the conveniences of today. Every detail has been thoughtfully designed—hurricane impact doors and windows bring peace of mind, while updated lighting fixtures, custom window treatments, and wainscoting along the staircase walls add a touch of timeless elegance. In the bonus room, a faux brick accent wall offers warmth and character, while the living space centers around a fireplace, creating a true gathering point for cooler nights. The kitchen is more than a place to cook—it’s a hub for connection. Here, a built-in bench with hidden storage makes the breakfast nook both practical and cozy. A reverse osmosis faucet ensures pure drinking water, while a whole-house carbon filtration system and water softener protect every drop. In the garage, an electric car charger stands ready for the future. The primary suite is a retreat, complete with a custom closet designed to fit every season in style. And if guests need their own space, the attached ADU with an exterior entrance provides flexibility for visiting family, a live-in au pair, or even a private office. Step outside, and you’ll find the heartbeat of this home: a brand-new, lighted pool and spa framed by heat-resistant porcelain decking—ready for summer days, evening swims, and sparkling reflections under the stars. Pentair systems make the lights, fountains, and heating a breeze to control, while landscape lighting in both the front and back yards creates a magical ambiance. New landscaping adds color and life, all sustained by a deep irrigation well. Technology and comfort weave seamlessly throughout: Ring exterior security cameras and doorbell, Kwikset smart front door access, Resideo whole-house A/C with a UV air purifier, and ADT security system. Every convenience has been considered, every upgrade completed with quality in mind. And then there’s the location—just minutes to Beach Drive for fine dining, wine bars, and boutique shopping; a short ride to the exciting downtown nightlife; or a leisurely bike through Vinoy Park along the sparkling waterfront. Here, you’re not just buying a house—you’re gaining access to the St. Petersburg lifestyle that blends art, culture, recreation, and community in one of Florida’s most desirable coastal cities. This is more than a property—it’s a rare opportunity to own a home that honors the spirit of Old Florida while delivering the luxuries and technologies today’s buyers expect. A home where memories are made on the front porch, in the glow of the pool at night, and during long, laughter-filled evenings with those who matter most. (HIGH AND DRY DURING HELENE!)
