About The Property

Welcome to this exquisitely renovated 1925 historic bungalow that has been tastefully updated with the home’s original architecture intact! This home is situated on a desirable 50′ x 124′ corner lot minutes from downtown St Petersburg in the up and coming Campbell Park neighborhood, just three blocks from Historic Roser Park. This exceptional and one of a kind century home offers the perfect blend of historic charm and contemporary design.
This beautiful bungalow home features an expansive open floor plan filled with natural light, new windows, and elegant finishes throughout. The custom designed kitchen features gleaming granite countertops, shaker cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a sleek smooth-top range, creating a space that is equally suited for everyday living and effortless entertaining.

The beautifully appointed bathrooms feature striking ocean blue tile, upscale slate gray vanities and contemporary fixtures.

One of the home’s most distinctive features is the standalone suite on the second floor, offering exceptional flexibility for multigenerational living, extended guests, a private home office, or potential income-producing opportunities. The stairwell can be enclosed to create a private entrance.

Designed for today’s lifestyle, the home offers 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, a bonus dining/laundry space, tile flooring throughout, and separate HVAC systems for each floor with independent thermostats.

This 6,200 SF lot offers your own private oasis with a fully fenced backyard which includes mature tropical landscaping, including three palm trees and a magnificent Royal Poinciana tree whose vibrant red flowering blooms create a spectacular canopy of color and shade. The east property line is 8 feet east of fence so the lot is even larger than it looks, fence will be moved soon!

This property is zoned as NT-2 (Neighborhood Traditional Single-Family District) and Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) are permitted subject to the City’s ADU regulations and development standards.

This home is ideally positioned just minutes from downtown St. Petersburg’s award-winning restaurants, museums, waterfront parks, Beach Drive, the St. Pete Pier, Central Avenue, multiple major hospitals, and the Pinellas Trail. The property is also only eight miles from the sugar sands of St. Pete Beach and Treasure Island, with convenient access to the SunRunner for an easy trip to the Gulf.
