This Palm Beach style home is one of St. Petersburg's most iconic properties where everyone slows down to admire the white columned and pediment facade as the grand entrance to North Shore Dr NE in the Historic Old Northeast. Situated on over a half acre of land along with 360ft of open waterfront consisting of FOUR water lots (8ft water depth and extending 45ft from sea wall) this remarkable property reveals a tropical alley of towering palms and tended flower beds of North Shore Park and the wide boulevard along Tampa Bay. This historic home remains one of the last vestiges of an era, where quiet elegance was the order of the day and now accommodates a more modern and casual lifestyle. A beautiful and sweeping circular drive leads to an elegant entrance hall and immediately showcases the excellent proportions of each room with 9 1/2 ft high tray ceilings, 8ft windows (all new hurricane windows upstairs and doors,) indoor/ outdoor terraces bringing in daylight to every space and a view of the sparkling waters. Life here is chic, tropical and upbeat! A relaxed and open formal living room with white upholstered furniture keeps the room airy yet inviting. The family room opens with a collapsible door to completely open the space inside and out with a shaded screened terrace overlooking the front gardens and open water beyond. The dining room, and another dining space on the loggia, overlook the park and bay on one side and the pool and backyard on the other side. There are 4 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms in the main house, each bedroom having magnificent water views. An added bonus is a full sized basement matching the footprint of the main house. The 60-foot heated lap pool separates the main house from the guest house which is above the 2-car garage. The guest, in-law or apartment is a one bedroom with living room, kitchen, full bathroom and outdoor screened porch creating another tropical escape. An additional full pool bath occupies the first floor of the guest house. A gorgeous white columned wall surrounds the entire property accented with lush shrubbery and trained vines against the white wall. All new sloped roofs with the highest level of insulation and an essentially brand new green Ludowici tile roof. Other updates include; all new copper pipes, completely new electrical, new AC units, all new composite dock (35 x 15 to accommodate a boat up to 31 ft) with high speed lift and 13,000 lbs. weight capacity. Beautiful walkways on each side of the home and behind the property of visual interest are accented with traditional rod iron gates. A classic rectangle pool with a fountain creating the most soothing atmosphere with palms and OAK trees shading the pool to the west of the house. This landmark home, at the epicenter of the historic Old Northeast neighborhood, with its brick streets, banyans and mangroves, oaks and palms, is your tropical escape. It’s a testament to what can be achieved with great taste and style inspired by the natural beauty of this incredible waterside town.
