You can skip the resorts and just stay home with this jaw dropping property. A massive (and rare) 14400sf city lot that has been thoughtfully and efficiently used. Brick street, covered front porch, mature landscaping. A lot to love. Plus rear alley access to huge driveway and 2+ car garage. Tropical vegetation abounds in the backyard, from towering Foxtail palms and Live Oaks, huge Areca Palms, and quirky Boney Finger Philodendrons. The pool is magnificent – professionally refinished, meticulously maintained and just the right size for summer fun all surrounded by a bug free (yes, the screening is expensive “no-see-um” micro screen) pool cage that offers both the sun lovers and the shade relaxers a place to hang out. Or pop into the perfectly maintained (and spotlessly clean) hot tub to really relax. Then there is an amazing out-building/kitchen with full bath, kitchen, dining area and a family room – not to mention an on demand full outside shower with built in bench. Rear deck perfect for grilling and a top-of-the-line, hardly used, Gozney Dome - the worlds best pizza oven ready for pizza, steaks, cedar plank salmon, cookies, muffins. Check out the exterior kitchen with built in refrig, custom tile and granite counter tops. … The property also has two outside storage sheds in addition to the way big garage – so finding a place for your stuff is not a worry. Now, before you head inside, understand all that has been done to this house to keep stress and worry far from your mind (and see the attached Home Upgrade List). First, it’s solid block coated with exterior insulation stucco system that keeps the cool in and the heat out (along with sound). A new metal roof that will last 40+ years (with additional insulation layer) was recently installed. New top-rated PFG impact windows professionally installed on EVERY window, including the garage. And both glass doors are impact rated along with hurricane bracing on the garage doors. Yes this house sailed through the past hurricanes without even a loss of power or a bit of damage. Newer high efficient HVAC, updated electric, pool updated, remodeled interior, new luxury flooring throughout… you just need to unpack your bags and move in. The living room is flooded with light and flows nicely into the well appointed kitchen. The wine cooler can easily be swapped for a dishwasher (the hookups are there). Big dining room with a wall of glass that just feels like a place where holidays would be memorable. The primary suite is amazing with a huge room and loft that makes a great office (current use), TV nook, reading library… Step into the spa like primary bath with the huge free standing soaking tub, walk-in shower with bench and high-end Grohe fixtures, the vanity towers with built-in outlets inside (life changing) and a walk in closet that goes for days. Plus custom tile work that is stunning. Two additional nice sized bedrooms (each currently have a king sized bed with room to spare) at the opposite end of the house. Head on back to the big hall pantry and a laundry room fit for royalty. Then there is that garage – it’s a gym now, but your cars just might love it too (and it's massive)! And remember, all of this is sitting on a huge city lot with so much privacy you won’t believe you’re minutes from downtown St Pete, Gulfport or world class beaches. Plus owners enjoy 4-point and wind mitigation discounts on insurance (with NO flood insurance required)! See it today!
