Property Details
Remarks
Rare opportunity to purchase a Mid-Century Modern historic Bird Cage home designed by famed architect Glen Q. Johnson. The home built in 1953 as one of the “Vision-Aire” homes designed by the architect along with St Pete Beach Library, the North Shore Aquatic Center and the Pinellas County Judicial Building among other well-known structures. The “Vision-Aire” and later called Bird Cage homes are ideally suited to the Florida climate. They were specifically designed to face the southeast and elevated off the ground to better catch the bay breezes and featured large screened in patios and overhangs. The interior walls were built with jalousies windows for air to flow through the entire house. The woods used in the construction were insect-resistant cedar, cypress and redwood. This is a stunning example of Glen Q. Johnsons bird cage home! This home is a carefully curated blend of historical preservation and modern convenience, ideal for those seeking a unique and stylish living space in a desirable location. The local designer/owner has impeccably restored this Mid-Century Modern home and has preserved its original architecture while updating it to contemporary standards. The memorable home has three bedrooms and two baths with1844 heated square feet and a saltwater pool. The open concept great room with fireplace and new modern kitchen with breakfast bar overlooks the 1,000 square bird cage and patio. The terrazzo floors have been beautifully restored along with the cork and wood flooring. The third bedroom suite is very versatile as it has been set up with kitchenette, washer dryer and can be used as guest suite or possibly a rental. The oversized lot has a newer saltwater pool that is distinguished by its distinctive rounded steps and complemented by outdoor lighting, creating a gorgeous private retreat. A highlight of the home is its bird caged patio, providing an inviting space for year-round enjoyment, complete with an outdoor kitchen and ample room for entertainment. The roof was replaced in 2023 with hurricane clips and insulation. The newer upper deck has been refinished. Zoned AC with new system for second and third level and newer mini splits for first level guest suite. Located just two miles from downtown St. Petersburg, this property enjoys proximity to a vibrant urban center renowned for its cultural attractions and recreational opportunities. Residents can easily access Major League Baseball games at Tropicana Field, explore world-class museums like the Salvador Dali Museum and Museum of Fine Arts, and immerse themselves in the city's lively art district with its galleries and monthly art walks. Dining options range from casual eateries to fine dining restaurants, while waterfront parks such as Vinoy Park and North Straub Park offer scenic retreats for outdoor activities.
