One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Beautiful block home located in a no flood zone and non-deed restricted community. Prime location with walkability to the middle and high schools, and just 10 minutes to downtown St. Pete and under 30 minutes to Tampa. Close to restaurants, shopping, and activities. This home retains charming original features, such as the curved edged cove ceiling in the living room and original gray tile in the guest bathroom, complemented by an updated kitchen. The open layout of the living, dining, and kitchen areas allows for seamless interaction while cooking, with a breakfast bar for extra seating. The stainless-steel appliances complement the kitchen and are perfectly placed for kitchen flow, and the kitchen sink view is of the serene backyard. There is plenty of real wood cabinetry in this kitchen and all the cabinets and drawers are soft close. The Whirlpool French door refrigerator with bottom freezer is family-sized. A large lazy susan for canned items, tall pantry with pull-out drawers for easy access, and a deep hallway closet provide excellent storage solutions. The large primary bedroom is split from the two guest bedrooms, has French door access to the spacious backyard, and an en-suite bathroom with walk-in shower. Unlike some older homes in the area where the second bathroom is in the garage, both bathrooms in this home are conveniently situated close to the bedrooms. It is great when a home has a tub/shower combo plus a walk-in shower for the convenience of everyone. The guest bedroom hallway includes a linen closet right outside the guest bathroom. There is one larger guest bedroom and a typical smaller bedroom. All the bedrooms have recently been painted, and new closet doors have been added to the guest bedrooms. The living room has beautiful wood-like vinyl flooring. If you are into the original look of the 60s homes, there is terrazzo flooring underneath the tile and carpet in the front part of the home. Double-paned windows with tilt-in features, installed around 2012, ensure easy cleaning and energy efficiency. Ceiling fans with lights in every room enhance airflow and reduce A/C usage. This home stays cool. The extended one-car garage includes ample storage space and a laundry area. The washer and dryer do come with the home. The large backyard, shaded by two mature oak trees, offers lush vegetation, a firepit area, and room for a swimming pool and outdoor kitchen. Built with a concrete block, slab foundation, and concrete plus plaster walls, this home is sturdy and storm-ready. This is where friends and family come to stay during the storms. The shingle roof was placed in 2010. There is a sprinkler system with well; however, it has not been used in a long time (cannot guarantee functionality). Duke Energy just replaced all the power lines behind the home in December. Nearby Fossil Park, a dog-friendly area, features walking trails, a viewing pond, youth baseball fields, a swimming pool, a rec center, pickleball and tennis courts, exercise equipment, BBQ grills, and picnic tables. This home is offered AS IS, with the option of cash purchase or conventional financing. If you see yourself making this your home, ask your Realtor to schedule a showing.
