This could be a fantastic place for your guests to have their own private sanctuary or it could be the mother of all mother-in-laws that you've been looking for! OR, as the sellers have successfully done for the last 5 years, it can now be your very own income producing Airbnb!!! Dubbed "The Cottage", this unit has kept the sellers at the top of the list, earning Superhost status year after year.  Most stay months at a time.  As you look at the pictures, imagine how happy you'd be if you were lucky enough to get to stay at The Cottage!  Now...imagine OWNING it! And...PAYING your bills with it! It is the seller's intention to leave the new homebuyers a TURN KEY Airbnb rental so you can create your own new listing on DAY 1!!!
Ever versatile, if you'd like to incorporate this area back into the rest of the house, all you have to do is install a door in the dining area where it used to be. The Cottage has it's own Mini Split.  House was tented on 7/17/2021, A new roof will be installed before the end of July and the main house's AC was done in 2015.  Where else are you going to get the opportunity to live in a great house, have a sanctuary for a backyard AND have your very own Airbnb rental already set up and ready to produce income?
Central Oak Park has become a highly sought after neighborhood due to its proximity to both downtown and the beaches and how easy it is to navigate around St. Pete!  You're a bike ride away from the great restaurants popping up in the Grand Central District.  Put everything aside and take a look at this fantastic opportunity!!!!!
