The location is perfect being just minutes from Lassing Park and an easy bike ride to downtown St Pete. The Chattaway, a century old neighborhood restaurant, is where the locals gather to enjoy good food and live music with performances by local musicians.This charming two-bedroom, one bath home, built in 1951 has a touch of modern farmhouse flair, the updated kitchen, breakfast area and bathroom are move in ready.

The many windows allow peaceful views of the landscape to infuse the interior with light and serenity. Surrounding the property is a magical front and back yard featuring mature oak trees, palms, fruit trees, and bamboo with quiet spaces interspersed throughout the garden for the owner's enjoyment.
