1125 MELROSE AVENUE S, ST PETERSBURG, FL 33705

St. Petersburg, Florida is one of the hottest cities in the country right now, and it is not hard to see why. People used to come here to retire. Now they come for the Michelin recommended restaurants, the craft breweries, the murals lining Central Avenue, the Salvador Dali Museum, and the energy of the St. Pete Pier. The city transformed into something truly special, and this home puts you minutes from all of it at a price that actually makes sense. Step onto the expansive front porch that stretches the full width of the home. Whether you are savoring your morning coffee as the sun rises or unwinding with your favorite evening beverage, this porch was made for the moments that matter most. Inside, soaring vaulted ceilings in the living room create an open, airy atmosphere that sets the tone for the rest of the home. The space flows naturally into a beautifully appointed kitchen with modern cabinetry, quartz countertops, a marble backsplash, and stainless steel appliances. It is as functional as it is stunning. The bathrooms are a true standout. Floor to ceiling tile on every wall gives each space a clean, resort style feel that you have to see in person. This is the kind of finish work that makes you feel like you are on vacation every single day. The split floor plan was designed with privacy in mind. The primary suite anchors one side of the home, while the guest bedroom sits on the other, complete with its own private bathroom accessible from both the bedroom and the living area. The layout works so well that guests will feel like they have a primary suite all to themselves. Built with light steel construction on a slab foundation with an accessible crawlspace, this home is as practical as it is beautiful. As brand new construction, expect low utility costs and affordable insurance rates, putting more money back in your pocket every month. The fully fenced yard delivers real privacy, and a dedicated irrigation well keeps your lawn green all year long without touching your water bill. Then there is the ADU. Rent it out and this home becomes very affordable, making St. Pete living genuinely within reach. This close to downtown, an income producing unit on the same property is rare. The ADU features vaulted ceilings and huge sliding doors that open to a private back porch with its own fully fenced yard. It feels like a completely separate house back there. This 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom home with an income producing ADU checks every box. Come see it for yourself.
