Built in 1925

Discover a piece of history infused with modern elegance in this beautifully restored residence, originally built in 1925 as a quaint 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom home. In 1946, it was thoughtfully relocated from its original downtown address to a generous corner lot in the highly sought-after neighborhood of Allendale Terrace. This remarkable property now boasts a total of 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, featuring a main house with a well-designed split-bedroom layout. The main bedroom includes an ensuite with a linen closet, while both secondary bedrooms offer charming cedar closets, complemented by an additional cedar linen closet in the hall bathroom. For added versatility, a turn-key furnished 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom legal income or in-law apartment is included, complete with two separate entrances, its own electrical meter, and a distinct address, ensuring both privacy and independence. Every aspect of this home has been meticulously redesigned, seamlessly blending the original charm and character of Old St. Pete with contemporary conveniences. Enjoy the warmth of built-in electric fireplaces and mantels in both the main house and the apartment. The interior is awash with natural light, highlighting stunning new flooring and modern window blinds while showcasing beautifully restored original plaster walls. Significant refurbishments have preserved the home's character, featuring original hardware, windows, doors, and vintage glass doorknobs, alongside updated electrical wiring and panels. The property is equipped with new HVAC systems, including two mini-split units in the apartment and a powerful 3-ton unit for the main home, along with two new water heaters. The roof, installed just five years ago, adds to the home’s peace of mind. The exterior has been revitalized with fresh stucco, paint, and shutters, while the fenced outdoor space has been thoughtfully landscaped with new sod, sidewalks, and pavers providing ample parking. The spacious open kitchen is a true highlight, showcasing solid wood, soft-close cabinets that reach up to the ceiling, illuminated glass uppers perfect for displaying cherished art pieces, and an exquisite porcelain backsplash paired with stylish granite countertops that provides additional seating. It comes fully equipped with stainless-steel appliances for a modern cooking experience. The cozy apartment kitchen mirrors this quality, featuring ceiling-height solid wood cabinets, granite countertops, and full-size stainless-steel appliances, including a dishwasher and island seating. Located on a high and dry corner lot, this property sustained no damage during Hurricane Helene or Hurricane Milton, offering peace of mind in storm-prone seasons. Embrace the charm and character of a historic home while enjoying the conveniences of modern living in Allendale Terrace. With shopping and dining just blocks away, and vibrant downtown less than three miles from your doorstep—filled with diverse restaurants, shops, festivals, entertainment, art galleries, museums, and stunning beaches—this is a unique opportunity you won’t want to miss. Plus, Tampa International Airport, an award-winning facility, is only a 20-minute drive away, making this an ideal location for both relaxation and convenience.
