    Motorized window treatmentsSpacious custom dressing roomBrazilian hardwood double doorsHidden walk-in pantryBuilt-in breakfast banquetteWhole-house water filtrationExpansive water views
    Welcome home to one of the most extraordinarily rare open waterfront opportunities in St. Petersburg. Imagine waking each morning to endless open water, the first light of sunrise glistening across Tampa Bay as dolphins quietly pass your dock and the distant skyline shimmers on the horizon. Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac on the coveted open-water side of Mermaid Point, this exceptional custom estate offers something rarely seen in today’s market. Homes on this stretch of open waterfront almost never come available, making this a true generational opportunity to own one of the most spectacular vantage points in the area. From nearly every major living space, sweeping views stretch across Tampa Bay toward the protected beauty of Weedon Island Preserve and the distant skyline of Downtown Tampa. Custom built by award-winning builder Tom Pici & Son, the home blends durability with refined modern living. Constructed with block and steel, impact-rated windows and doors, and elevated above the base flood elevation, the residence has never flooded, reflecting its thoughtful positioning and quality construction. Set along 107' of deep sailboat water, the property is ideal for boating enthusiasts. The Speeler-built dock with two boat lifts allows you to be cruising the open waters of Tampa Bay in minutes. Inside, Brazilian hardwood double doors open to a tranquil foyer highlighted by a dramatic floor-to-ceiling indoor waterfall. The homes open design and soaring 12' ceilings flood the interior with natural light while framing expansive water views. A Crestron integrated smart home system provides effortless control of lighting, climate, entertainment, and security, while motorized window treatments, recessed LED lighting, whole-house water filtration, and two Rinnai tankless water heaters enhance comfort and efficiency. The chefs kitchen is designed for gathering and entertaining, featuring custom cabinetry by Michael Bright and a Newer premium appliance suite including a Wolf gas range, Sub-Zero refrigeration, and Miele coffee station with Miele double ovens. A stunning Madagascar granite island with prep sink anchors the space, while a hidden walk-in pantry and built-in breakfast banquette connect seamlessly to the family room, where a wood-burning fireplace and breathtaking water views create a warm gathering place. The expansive primary suite serves as a private retreat overlooking the bay and skyline, complete with its own fireplace and a spa-inspired bath featuring a Pearl whirlpool tub, steam shower, floating double vanity, warming rack, Toto smart toilet and bidet, and spacious custom dressing room. Additional living spaces include a screening room with seating for eight, 3 additional en-suite bedrooms—including a wellness room and a junior suite with direct pool access—and 2 interior laundry rooms. Outdoor living is equally exceptional. A two-tier waterfront deck overlooks the open bay, while the Sekas-designed saltwater pool and spa with swim jets, sun shelf, and outdoor kitchen creates the perfect setting for entertaining or quiet evenings under the stars. While the setting feels private and serene, the location is remarkably convenient—just minutes from Downtown St. Pete, the Vinoy Golf Club, world-class dining, museums, parks, and the vibrant St. Pete Pier. 2279 Mermaid Pt recently appraised at $4.85M in 2025. This is a rare opportunity to live on one of the most extraordinary open-water settings in all of St. Petersburg.
