About this home

Perfectly positioned just two blocks from Crescent Lake Park, this charming and beautifully maintained 1920s bungalow offers the rare combination of historic character, modern updates, and exceptional income-producing potential in one of St. Petersburg's most sought-after neighborhoods. The property features a thoughtfully updated 2-bedroom, 2-bath main residence with over 1,500 square feet of living space, along with a fully equipped detached 1-bedroom, 1-bath accessory dwelling unit (ADU) offering approximately 650 square feet. Whether used for rental income, multigenerational living, a private guest retreat, or home office, the ADU provides incredible flexibility and value. The main home is filled with timeless charm, featuring original hardwood floors, a wood-burning fireplace, abundant natural light, and a spacious dining room highlighted by original tile flooring and walls of windows. The modern open-concept kitchen is equipped with stainless steel appliances and flows seamlessly into the home's inviting living spaces. Additional highlights include an indoor laundry room with ample storage, a large covered front porch spanning the full width of the home, and a wraparound rear porch overlooking the backyard with new decking and a newly installed paver patio—perfect for outdoor entertaining. Outside, you'll find a new, large paver driveway for off-street parking, well-fed irrigation, landscape lighting, and mature landscaping that enhances the property's curb appeal. The detached ADU offers its own private alley access, dedicated parking, separate entrance, screened porch, full kitchen, loft-style bedroom, and two independent HVAC systems, including a ductless mini-split, creating a comfortable and private living experience. Steps from Crescent Lake, locals enjoy the walking trails, green space, dog park, tennis courts, pickleball courts, and lakefront playground. Located just minutes from vibrant downtown St. Petersburg, and the bustling 9th & 4th Street corridor, waterfront parks, restaurants, shopping, and entertainment, this move-in-ready property presents a rare opportunity to own a character-filled home with immediate income potential in the heart of Crescent Lake. No flood insurance required.

Local Insight

At $441/sqft for a 1920s home with three separate bathrooms and an in-law suite, you're getting solid value for the Crescent Lake location—one of St. Pete's most established neighborhoods—and the X flood zone designation means no flood insurance requirement, which saves real money on a nearly $1M purchase. The bigger consideration is that a 104-year-old house at this price point will almost certainly need foundation, plumbing, or electrical work that inspections should catch, so budget accordingly and don't assume the asking price reflects a turnkey property. The in-law suite adds genuine flexibility for multigenerational living or rental income, which is the strongest practical advantage this particular home offers over a newer comparable.
