For Sale By Owner

This lovely 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom wood and stucco ranch style house gives you the feeling of living in the countryside while still being a short drive from both downtown St. Petersburg and Tampa. Located in the unique city of St. Petersburg, Florida, this home is situated on a generous 13343 sq ft double lot accented by majestic oaks, mature pines and fruit-laden citrus trees. Built in 1983, it is comfortably set back from the street allowing for an extended driveway that can easily accommodate up to 6 vehicles, leading to the attached 2-car garage. The back and sides of this double lot are conveniently fenced and the entire property is serviced by a sprinkler system, which utilizes city reclaimed water. Both the front and the back of the house have spacious wood decks for relaxing and entertaining, featuring built-in seating and planters for that personal touch. The family-friendly interior design provides 1384 square feet of living space featuring 900 square feet of oak hardwood flooring, ceramic tiles in the bathrooms, and contemporary berber carpeting in the 2 guest bedrooms and adjoining hallway. As you enter the home, the welcoming foyer leads you to the spacious living room and the open dine-in kitchen, and also leads into the large hallway that ends with an oversized coat closet. This special closet houses a hidden doggy-door that opens out to a ramp leading to the fenced-in back and side yards to accommodate the four-legged members of your family. There is a unique, semi-open divider between the kitchen and living room that can house an indoor garden, or would also make an excellent setting for an aquarium. In addition to the beautiful hardwood flooring, the kitchen boasts generous oak cabinetry and the living room has a convenient built-in entertainment center and sliding glass doors that open on to the bi-level wooden deck and out to the back yard. The inviting 12x19 master suite features hardwood flooring, two oversized windows looking out to the private back and side yards, and a walk-in closet.

This bathroom features ceramic tile flooring, large linen closet, a tub with shower combination, and a window facing the west side yard. There is central heat and air throughout and all 3 bedrooms, the living room and the garage have decorative ceiling fans. The attached 2-car garage also features an automatic garage door opener, washer and dryer, built-in shelving, and side doors leading into the main house and out to the side yard. The perfect centralized location of this home is the crowning touch.
