ST PETERSBURG, FL 33705

Virtually Staged. Authentic 1925 Craftsman bungalow thoughtfully renovated to preserve its timeless character while embracing the comforts of modern living. Located in St. Petersburg's historic Campbell Park neighborhood, this beautifully restored 3-bedroom, 2-bath residence offers approximately 1,345 square feet of living space. Public records reflect 1,193 square feet, consisting of 918 square feet on the lower level and a 275-square-foot upstairs loft, plus an additional 152 square feet that has been enclosed and incorporated into the home's living area. Thoughtful improvements complement the home's original architectural character, creating a distinctive residence that blends the craftsmanship of another era with the functionality today's buyers appreciate. The expansive covered front porch provides a warm welcome and an inviting place to enjoy Florida's outdoor lifestyle. Inside, soaring ceilings, abundant natural light, classic built-in cabinetry, rich architectural details and a wood-burning fireplace give the main living area its unmistakable character. Engineered hardwood flooring installed on the lower level in 2016 provides a beautiful foundation for the home's living spaces, while the original hardwood flooring upstairs has been carefully restored, preserving an authentic connection to the home's 1925 heritage. The updated kitchen blends naturally with the home's historic appeal while providing modern functionality for everyday living and entertaining. Two generously sized bedrooms and a full bath are located on the main level, while the spacious upstairs loft provides exceptional flexibility as a private primary retreat, guest quarters, home office or creative space. The additional incorporated living area further enhances the versatility of the floor plan, while generous closet space, ample storage and an interior laundry area add conveniences not always found in homes of this vintage. Step outside to a private backyard retreat surrounded by mature tropical landscaping. The fully fenced yard and attractive brick paver patio create an inviting setting for entertaining, outdoor dining or simply relaxing at home. A detached garage provides additional storage and functionality while complementing the property's historic character. Hurricane shutters provide an additional measure of storm protection, while other significant improvements include the 2016 renovation, 2016 roof, 2016 HVAC system and 2021 tankless water heater. The home is also located in Flood Zone X, adding another important consideration for Florida buyers. Ideally situated just minutes from Downtown St. Petersburg, the home offers convenient access to schools, shopping, dining, medical facilities, waterfront parks, the Innovation District, Bayfront Health, Johns Hopkins All Children's Hospital, Tropicana Field and Interstates 175, 275 and 375. The pristine Gulf Coast beaches and their many amenities are just a short drive away, while Tampa International Airport is approximately 30 minutes from your doorstep. Whether you're drawn to the craftsmanship of a historic home, appreciate thoughtfully integrated modern updates or simply want a distinctive property close to everything St. Petersburg has to offer, this exceptional Craftsman bungalow presents a wonderful opportunity to own a beautifully restored piece of the city's architectural heritage.
