About this home
One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. A RARE CENTURY-OLD GEM — FULLY RENOVATED IN THE HEART OF RIVIERA BAY Welcome to one of Northeast St. Petersburg's most distinctive homes — a beautifully restored 1926 Farmhouse-style residence where historic character meets modern luxury. Situated on a rare oversized triangular corner lot in a quiet cul-de-sac, this 2,256 sqft two-story home offers a lifestyle that simply cannot be replicated in new construction. Step inside and discover a thoughtfully redesigned interior featuring luxury vinyl plank flooring, custom trim work, and a wood-burning fireplace that anchors the main living space. The chef's kitchen has been completely reimagined with quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, and brand-new top-of-the-line KitchenAid appliances — including a 30" electric slide-in range with integrated downdraft ventilation for a clean, seamless aesthetic. Three bedrooms, two full baths, and a newly added half bath serve both daily living and entertaining with ease. Exterior French doors open directly to a wood deck and brick paver patio, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor Florida living beneath the canopy of mature oak trees. Major systems are fully updated — no surprises: 2020 roof, 2020 HVAC, new electrical panel, fully rewired first floor, second floor brought to current code, new smart lighting system (Alexa-compatible), and a new irrigation system. Flood insurance is already in place and paid. Minutes from vibrant Downtown St. Pete, top hospitals, universities, and Riviera Bay Park (pickleball, tennis, basketball). Easy access to Tampa Bay beaches and I-275. Investors welcome — this home may also be an excellent fit for a co-living concept, given its layout, location, and proximity to key education and employment hubs, including USF St. Petersburg, St. Petersburg College, Eckerd College, downtown St. Pete, and easy access to Tampa. Historic charm. Modern finishes. Move-in ready. Schedule your private showing today.
