Under contract-accepting backup offers. Here is your peaceful and private sanctuary nestled on a picturesque brick street in the much-desired Stetson neighborhood of Gulfport! High and dry fortress through two recent hurricanes! Don’t miss your opportunity to own a charming home located on an oversized corner lot which includes your own fruit-bearing lychee tree, a large cottage (extra 347 square feet) and is only a few blocks from the Pinellas Trail. As you approach this home you’ll be amazed by the dog-friendly outdoor yard space which includes a private courtyard area and several different fenced-in areas around the entire property. The existing well and extensive irrigation system allow a new buyer to build their own tropical oasis. The main home is of block construction and features a ton of original character including a working fireplace, solid wood floors, a completely updated bathroom, and a kitchen with newer cabinets, countertops, and appliances. The air-conditioned cottage includes a bathroom with shower and laundry facilities. The cottage would make a great space for an art studio, a private office, or a private bedroom for your house guests. The roof has recently been replaced on both the main home and the cottage. Other standout features include covered parking in the back, a large circle driveway with secured parking in the front, and plenty of room to park your boat on the property. If you are looking to live in the vibrant creative community of Gulfport — this is the home for you! You’ll be minutes to downtown Gulfport on the higher elevation of Stetson neighborhood near the university with great restaurants and coffee shops, unique shops, a weekly farmer’s market, public access to the beach for lounging in the sun, a kayak, paddle, or boat launch, tennis, volleyball courts, and a waterfront pier. This property is centrally located allowing for only 15 minutes to downtown St. Petersburg, St. Pete Beach, Treasure Island, and Pass-a-Grille. The home is in flood zone X and does not require flood insurance at this time. No history of any flooding. Less than 25 minutes away from two airports — St. Pete / Clearwater Airport and Tampa International Airport. The location does not get any better.
