Welcome home to your own little St. Pete oasis! This recently renovated 2-bedroom, 2-bath home also features a flexible bonus room perfect for a home office, guest room, nursery, or whatever best fits your lifestyle. Inside, the renovated kitchen and living area have been opened up to create a bright, connected space centered around a huge kitchen island. We've loved using the island as our everyday dining space and the separate dining room as a playroom, but the flexible layout gives you plenty of options. Both bathrooms have also been recently renovated. Outside is where this home really shines. Situated on a large corner lot, the fully fenced backyard feels like a private tropical oasis, surrounded by mature plants and trees. Garden lovers will especially appreciate the edible landscaping, including mango, avocado, mulberry, banana, and papaya trees. There is currently a backyard playground that can remain for a family with children or be removed upon request. One of our favorite things about this home is its location you get wonderful access to both nature and everything St. Pete has to offer. Little Bayou Preserve is just down the road, with beautiful walking trails and kayak access for paddling through the mangroves and around Coquina Key. Boyd Hill Nature Preserve is just around the corner, and Bay Vista Park and Pinellas Point are about a mile away perfect for waterfront sunsets and sunrises, dolphin spotting, a playground, or simply spending time by the bay. Downtown and St Pete beach are also just short drives away (~10-13 minutes). The home also includes an attached one-car garage with washer and dryer, plus plenty of additional storage. If you're looking for an updated home with flexible living space, a lush private yard, incredible access to nature, and all the fun of St. Pete nearby, this is a pretty special place to call home. 12-month lease preferred. $2,650 security deposit and first month's rent due prior to move-in.
