This thoughtfully UPDATED, 2 bedroom 1 bath bungalow situated in the popular neighborhood of Central Oak Park in St Petersburg sits only 10 minutes from the BEACH or 10 minutes from DOWNTOWN. Cruise on the e-bike to one of the many WATERFRONT parks, eat lunch under the BANYAN TREES, or grab a drink along Beach Drive. There are endless things to do in downtown St Pete, from museums, sporting events, shopping at the unique boutiques, enjoying a meal at any of the amazing restaurants, and take pictures in front of the murals as you walk by. A beloved feature of this St Pete neighborhood are the secret alleys that allow a private entry into your home. Enter through the GATED yard to a driveway large enough to park 3-4 guests. A BIG BACKYARD greets you with a paved FIRE PIT area perfect for gathering with friends after a fun night downtown. The covered porch offers a great place to have your morning coffee on a crisp fall night or catch some shade on a hot summer day. The single car GARAGE allows you to easily unload and store beach gear or provides a great workshop if you’re feeling handy. The primary entryway features windows on both sides of the door greeting guests to an open foyer or BONUS room. This fully air conditioned room is truly a BONUS as it is not included in the original square footage but provides a versatile space to suit your needs. Step a little further into your new home to find a UPDATED KITCHEN complete with new cabinets, quartz countertops, undermount sink with disposal, and stainless steel appliances. There’s even an EAT IN BREAKFAST AREA large enough for a full size table that opens to the living room. The SPACIOUS LIVING ROOM has windows that let in plenty of light and access to the front of the home through the front door. When you’re exhausted from your beach day, or you’ve just returned home from another sunset at the pier, take a relaxing bath in the UPDATED BATHROOM, then retire to one of 2 SPACIOUS BEDROOMS before enjoying what the next day of St Pete living brings. Worry free living continues with NO FLOOD ZONE, a brand NEW ROOF (2025), newly installed UV SYSTEM for HVAC which removes allergens from the air, improving the overall quality, and Rainsoft WATER SYSTEM (2021). The AC (2017) and Water heater (2018) also have plenty of life left in them. This home is also zoned as mixed residential so if you are looking to make some rental income, there’s plenty of opportunity with this large lot in a prime location. The only thing left to do is grab your keys and start enjoying the SWEET St Pete LIFESTYLE.
