About this home

Under contract-accepting backup offers. RECENT PRICE REDUCTION! Sellers are motivated! Character Lives Here! Discover the charm and potential of this Spanish/Mediterranean-inspired pool home ideally positioned on an oversized .23-acre lot in a non-evacuation zone with no flood insurance required. Centrally located near the Pinellas Trail, downtown St. Petersburg, Gulfport, the SunRunner, and the area’s top-rated Gulf beaches, this property offers a rare combination of character, space, lifestyle, and future flexibility in one of St. Pete’s most convenient locations. Behind the newly installed vinyl fence (2025), the expansive backyard offers exceptional outdoor living with a massive concrete pool approximately 14 feet deep, large patio space, and plenty of additional yard space rarely found in this area. The property is also zoned for an ADU (Additional Dwelling Unit), creating added flexibility and long-term investment potential. Inside, the open-concept layout blends timeless character with functional living spaces. Original oak flooring, archways, crown molding, and a tiled wood-burning fireplace add warmth and architectural appeal throughout the home. The spacious kitchen features granite countertops, breakfast bar seating, stainless steel appliances, ample prep space, disposal, and an oversized pantry/storage area. The KitchenAid dishwasher was replaced in 2025, while additional appliances by Frigidaire, GE, and LG were updated in 2023. The home offers two bedrooms plus a bonus room currently utilized as a third bedroom, along with one full bath and a convenient half bath with direct pool access. The oversized primary bedroom includes three closets, while the nearby full bath offers linen storage and a tub/shower combination. A designated indoor utility room includes the Maytag washer and LG dryer, both of which convey with the property. Additional updates include solar panels (2022), roof (2022), upstairs windows (2022), HVAC systems and ductwork (2022), sewer pipe replacement (2018), tankless water heater, newer pool pump, select flooring updates, and newer interior paint. Located just a short bike ride to Gulfport, approximately six blocks from Central Avenue, and only five blocks from SunRunner access, this property offers convenient access to restaurants, entertainment, shopping, beaches, and downtown St. Petersburg while still maintaining a neighborhood feel.

Local Insight

At $263/sqft for a 1925 home in Forest Hills, you're getting decent value for the St. Petersburg market, especially with a private pool on a quarter-acre lot—but that age means you'll want a serious inspection since older plumbing, electrical, and structural issues can add up fast in Florida's humid climate. The no-HOA setup is a plus for flexibility, though you're responsible for all maintenance on a nearly 100-year-old property, and being in flood zone X is good news that should keep insurance costs reasonable.
