This stunning Dutch Colonial home was built in 1924 along with a handful of other historic homes from the 1920s in the neighborhood. While this home is celebrating turning 100 this year, it has all the modern amenities and updates you’ve come to expect. Much of the original character has been preserved. Upon walking up to the home, you are greeted with wood columns flanking the brick front porch along with a curved beadboard ceiling. Step inside to the luxurious and welcoming entryway. The light and bright living room has beautiful built-in shelves along each side of the decorative fireplace. On the other side of the first floor is a large dining room that leads into the fully updated kitchen. The kitchen features wood soft-close cabinets, neutral quartz countertops, new stainless-steel appliances, a pantry, an under-mount sink, and a newly added coffee/dry bar with a wine fridge. Off the back of the home is a Florida room that could also be used as a great office. The first-floor bathroom is all updated and has the laundry closet tucked away as well. Walking up the wide stairs to the second floor you will notice the original steps, railing, and wood banisters. There are three generously sized bedrooms upstairs along with a smaller fourth bedroom/nursery/office. Upstairs you’ll notice the original hardwood flooring, crown molding, framed-out windows/doors, and high baseboards. The primary bedroom has its own door that connects to the one full bathroom on the second floor. The bathroom has a newer vanity, charming hexagon tile flooring, wainscoting, and a tub with subway tile. Back downstairs the first-floor sub-flooring has been completely replaced/re-built along with high-end hardwood flooring added throughout. All the additional upgrades are as follows: roof (2020), downstairs A/C mini-splits (2020), sprinkler system and pump (2020), hurricane-rated impact windows (2018), new hurricane-rated steel front door w/ side lights (2024), crawlspace completely encapsulated with dehumidifier and sump pump (2022), new pool pump and skimmer (2024), electric car charger hookup (2022), and second-floor A/C system (2017). Step outside to the outdoor oasis complete with a newer in-ground pool, large brick paver patio, mature landscaping, and a fully fenced-in yard. There is plenty of parking out front with the half-circle driveway. Off the kitchen is an enclosed mud room/storage room that also has access to the rear yard. This amazing home is close to everything St. Pete has to offer. The newly completed Shore Acres Rec Center is within walking distance.
