With over $300K in updates by the current owners, this gorgeous home is sure to impress. Be storm-ready with hurricane impact windows and a 15kW Tesla solar panel system that reduces the energy bills by more than 50% for additional savings. This home did not sustain any damage from the recent storms. As you arrive, you’ll find beautiful tropical landscaping including a palm tree lined driveway and lush lawn, all watered by a Hydrowise sprinkler system with reclaimed water. Upon entering the custom glass door, you’ll find an expansive open concept living area with new bamboo hardwood floors and 13ft vaulted ceilings. The foyer opens to a spacious family room and adjacent dining room. Tranquil beach-themed colors and designs are reflected throughout this home. To the right are the 2nd and 3rd bedrooms, both with crown molding and built in closets. These bedrooms share a fully renovated 2nd bath with quartz counters, wainscoting, subway tile and 10ft ceilings. Beyond the dining room is a beautifully redesigned kitchen with white cabinets, under cabinet lighting, a marble tile backsplash, quartz counters, a butcher-block island, breakfast bar and dual fuel 5-burner gas cooktop convection range. The built-in pantry has slide out drawers for additional storage. Behind the kitchen is a laundry room that leads to the 2-car garage that also includes a 220V EV charging system. Head upstairs through the custom barn door to the primary suite. As you enter, you’ll find tons of natural light, vaulted & wood-beamed ceilings, dual ceiling fans and a large sitting area in the 400+sqft primary suite. The fully updated primary bath includes wood-look tile floors, a vessel sink, walk-in shower with rain head and plenty of storage along with a separate walk-in closet. A set of French doors open to a private balcony off the primary suite with partial water views and a spiral staircase down to the pool. As you head back downstairs, another set of French doors off the dining room lead out to an expansive covered lanai which provides over 300sqft of additional covered outdoor living space. Beyond the lanai is a private pool, separate hot tub and fire pit, all surrounded by palm trees, crushed shell hardscape and bamboo for a tropical oasis setting that’s perfect for entertaining family and friends. Just beyond the entrance to Tropical Shores is Lassing Park which is a waterfront, dog-friendly park along the St. Petersburg shores of Tampa Bay. It’s the perfect place to relax, picnic or walk in the water with the downtown St. Pete skyline as your backdrop. Peace of mind included with a Seller-paid 1year home warranty! Make this stunning property your new place to relax and call home today!
