This is just the beginning of a layout that is absolute perfection! The stylish kitchen is open to a living and dining space and features a large center island, granite counter tops, stainless steel appliances, Bosch refrigerator, and pull-out cabinetry. While this area is incredibly spacious, it's also comfortable and intimate, with a cozy fireplace, and wall of sliding glass doors leading to your pool deck. Enjoy waking up to lake views in the master suite, which offers a walk-in closet, a large en suite bathroom with walk in shower, double sinks, and soaking tub, as well as private entry to the den and pool deck.

Lastly, but certainly not least, the highly-coveted three car garage offers plenty of room for parking and storage, as well as an air conditioned third stall. Beyond the luxury of your home, the guard gated community of Placido Bayou offers a paradise setting with picturesque lakes for fishing, scenic paths for running, and lush trees providing shade and tranquility. Conveniently located just minutes from downtown St. Petersburg’s vibrant waterfront, you’ll have easy access to an array of dining options, boutique shopping, world-class arts, cultural and sporting events. Beaches, airports, and golf courses are also just a short drive away, and the Racquet Club of St Petersburg is at the entry of the neighborhood, where you can enjoy both pickleball and tennis!
