The gourmet kitchen is designed for both entertaining and everyday living with granite countertops, solid wood cabinetry, a 5-burner gas range with double ovens, pot filler, panel-ready refrigerator and freezer, filtered hot and cold water dispenser, and a dedicated wet bar with wine refrigerator and sink. The second-floor primary suite serves as a private retreat with its own sitting room, balcony, and spa-inspired bathroom featuring dual vanities, a jetted soaking tub, dual-head walk-in shower, and separate water closet.
The outdoor living experience is truly exceptional and reflects the Florida lifestyle buyers are searching for in luxury St. Petersburg real estate. The screened pool and spa area connects beautifully to a travertine-tiled patio, professionally landscaped yard, fire pit gathering space, and natural gas connected outdoor grill, eliminating the need for portable propane tanks. The backyard was designed as a peaceful and private oasis for entertaining, relaxing, and enjoying year-round outdoor living.
Adding tremendous flexibility and value, the detached garage includes a private one-bedroom, one-bath apartment with its own entrance and separate electric meter. The space has never been used as an Airbnb or short-term rental and was utilized exclusively as a family office, making it ideal for multigenerational living, guest accommodations, creative workspace, or future income potential.
