Situated on a large, corner lot in the gorgeous, gated community of Placido Bayou, this beautiful home offers a well-designed layout and complete custom renovation. Interior and exterior updates, all completed over the last three years, leave this home looking and feeling brand new! No detail has been overlooked and each update is high-end throughout the entire home, from the bright and open kitchen, to the sparkling pool and spa. Vaulted ceilings throughout the home offer a sense of grandeur, and expand the home's already generous floor plan. The kitchen is a well thought out masterpiece, featuring stainless steel appliances, leather finish hard marble counter tops, dry bar, and oversized breakfast bar. The flexible layout offers options, and caters to the homeowner's lifestyle, with a 3rd room that can easily play the role of a bedroom, office, gym, or playroom. The sizable master suite features private entry to the pool deck, two spacious closets, and a stunning en suite bath, with a double vanity, and walk-in shower. In the living space, and visible from the moment you enter the home, a wall of french doors bring in natural light and lead out to your beautiful backyard paradise. The welcoming pool and spa, completed during the recent renovation, are surrounded by a spacious travertine pool deck, all screened and placed within the privacy of mature landscaping. The outdoor space continues outside of the screened pool deck, where you'll find a fenced yard with Florida native landscaping, which often welcomes butterflies throughout the day and offers a cozy fire pit by night. Additional practical updates include impact windows and doors, whole house water softener reverse osmosis system, gutter system with gutter guards, in ground termite prevention, new attic insulation, and the list goes on. Live at ease knowing the HOA covers your lawn maintenance and exterior house painting (every 7 years). Experience the luxury of living inside one of St Petersburg's few gated communities! The neighborhood of Placido Bayou is a paradise, with lakes for fishing, paths for running, and plenty of trees for shade. All of this conveniently located just minutes from downtown St Pete's waterfront with endless dining, shopping, world class arts and events, and a short drive from beaches and airports. Welcome home to the Florida lifestyle at its absolute best!
