Under contract-accepting backup offers. Located in Snell Isle Shores, just steps away from the famous Vinoy Golf Course and one block away from the serene Coffee Pot Bayou, this three bedroom home is sure to win you over with its mix of character with modern upgrades. Plus, NO WATER INTRUSION from Hurricanes Helene & Milton per the owner! The kitchen was beautifully remodeled in 2022, and the original wood floors were refinished in 2023, creating the perfect blend of old and new. Two bedrooms off to the right share a hall bathroom, and through the dining room you will find a hallway leading to the potential third bedroom or den, a hall closet that doubles as laundry, and a gorgeous updated bathroom with stand up shower (renovated 2024). One of the most exciting features of this property? A detached air conditioned flex space not counted in the heated square footage of the home (formerly used as an office) is waiting for the next vision... will it be a study area, hobby room, lounge, yoga studio, amazing gym, or even a "pub shed" while you entertain guests at the pool? Let your imagination run wild. Thanks to the large lot, your backyard patio and green space is not compromised by the size of the large swimming pool - you get the best of both worlds! And as a bonus, the swimming pool comes with a child safety fence ready to go if needed. Lastly there is a parking pad off the alley behind the fence for those who wish to keep cars off the street. Also just a few blocks away is Crisp Park which boasts the locals' favorite boat ramp and playground, and 2 miles to downtown St. Pete! Plus some of the best grocery shopping available: Whole Foods, Trader Joes, Fresh Market, and Publix... all within a 5 minute radius! Important updates include: roof (2019), HVAC (2021), most windows replaced with hurricane impact rated.
