Welcome to this magnificent home, nestled in the historic Pink Streets of Saint<br />Petersburg, Florida. This is a unique neighborhood with clay-painted streets, large lots,<br />and each house different than the next. This is your opportunity to own a stunning Dutch<br />Colonial home that blends beautiful original features with modern convenience. As you<br />step into the grand foyer, you’ll immediately notice the recently refinished original solid<br />oak floors. The expansive 32’ x 15’ living room features a gorgeous wood-burning<br />fireplace, perfect for those occasional chilly Florida nights. To the west, one of two sun-<br />drenched family rooms invites natural light, offering a cozy retreat. Adjacent to the living<br />room, the formal 15’ x 13’ dining room seamlessly connects to the kitchen. On the east<br />side of the home, the second family room, also bathed in sunlight, provides the perfect<br />space for quiet reading or intimate gatherings. The home offers four spacious<br />bedrooms, one of which is currently used as an office. The luxurious 15’ x 20’ primary<br />suite includes an en-suite bath. Two additional bathrooms are located on the second<br />floor, with a convenient half bath on the first floor. In total, the home boasts 3,724<br />square feet of air-conditioned living space. The kitchen is ideal for entertaining, with<br />most appliances installed in 2022. A charming butler’s pantry, featuring seating for two<br />and a brightly lit window, overlooks the spacious three-car garage. The garage itself<br />provides abundant storage, including a loft, while the long driveway accommodates 8-<br />10 vehicles for off-street parking. At the rear of the kitchen, a generous 23’ x 16’<br />screened porch overlooks a beautiful in-ground pool, built in 2016. Surrounding the<br />pool, a stunning deck creates the perfect setting for a dolce far niente-Italian for the<br />sweetness of doing nothing.&quot; This magnificent home sits on a lushly landscaped corner<br />lot, spanning approximately 18,008 square feet (134’ x 133’). Major updates include a<br />brand-new roof (2024) and a recently replaced A/C system in 2025. After exploring the<br />photos and videos, you'll fall in love with this beauty.
