On high ground in Monticello Park in desirable Allendale, and nestled under majestic oaks, a 4000-square-foot pool home set on over a third of an acre exudes rustic charm. The brick façade and ornate wrought-iron-framed, two-story porches give the home a southern country atmosphere. Lush tropical landscaping, and old brick and stone paving surrounding the large screened pool and raised deck, create a private haven of peace and tranquility. The flowing floor plan and large public spaces are ideal for entertaining, and the floor-to-ceiling picture windows and pocket doors on adjoining walls in the family room bring the outside atmosphere right into the home. There are five bedrooms, four full bathrooms, two half bathrooms and a remodeled eat-in kitchen with dark cherry wood cabinets, extensive solid surface counters and Sub Zero refrigerator. A rare pleasure to find is the 11-by-6 walk-in pantry. There is a second master suite downstairs, which could equally serve as a guest suite. Add to that marble floors, new laminate floors and carpeting, crown molding, plantation shutters, large closets, oversized side-loading two-car garage, stately wood burning fireplace and custom-built 12-by-9 mahogany bar and you have a large inviting and very accommodating home. The many delights of Downtown St. Petersburg are close at hand, including famed waterfront parks, art galleries, museums, movies, concerts, theater, fine dining, and a variety of events and excellent bistros and bars.
