Here is your once in a lifetime opportunity to own a wonderful Mediterranean home in the "Heart" of Historic Old NE! Conveniently located near downtown St. Pete, North Shore Park and all that those areas have to offer, all the hard work has been done, and all you have to do is move in and start enjoying it! This home was originally built by Dixie Hollins in 1925 and well loved by Dr. Montague and his family for over 50 years. In 2016 the home transformed from a 1925’s iconic home into a modern day property, while maintaining the unique, well preserved period details. Among those features are the original Cuban tile in the laundry room (washer and dryer convey) and ½ bath on the first floor, original heart of pine doors and doorknobs, oak and heart of pine floors, and the lovely, original crafted Cuban tile guest bathroom on the second floor, with original built in tub/shower, fixtures and pedestal sink. The main house boasts 3 large bedrooms and closets, 2 1/2 bathrooms and a large modern kitchen. Among other things, the kitchen has a 48-inch Viking Stove with double ovens, solid cherry KraftMaid cabinets, a Scotsman ice maker, Samsung French Door refrigerator, a Viking wine refrigerator, a large copper farm sink, Curava glass countertops, Grothouse Mahogany butcher block island…and many other state of the art touches! The large pantry includes original heart of pine built-ins, a wet bar, wood ceiling and 2-120 bottle wine refrigerators, which are negotiable…but the wine is not! Upstairs, the Master Bath has been renovated and includes a Toto Washlet toilet, marble floors and glass/ceramic tile in the large standup shower, plus a cedar lined master closet in the bedroom. The additional bedrooms are quite large, and there is also another closet outfitted for clothing outside the bedroom. But that’s not all! In these days of needing additional space for offices or family that’s returned to the nest for a while, above the 2 car garage you’ll find a 1 bedroom in-law suite with renovated kitchen and bathroom, plus a living room with eating nook and an additional office room. Adjacent to the garage and accessed off the pool is an attached casita currently used as an office with en-suite full bathroom and AC split. The impeccable transformation to modern occurred from 2016-2019 and, per the sellers, includes all new electric wiring, to include a 200 amp panel for main house and 150 amp panel for in-law suite, all new plumbing, to include sewer line to city, the roof on both structures, Hurricane impact PGT windows, HVACs (X3), and 11.01 kWP Solar Source Solar system (average electric bill $45 per month and paid off). And that new gas heated Salt-Water pool with upgraded Pebble Tech installed in 2019 that includes a lovely water feature to cool you in the summer? ALL that, and step out your front yard and two blocks down you’ll see Tampa Bay! Take a beautiful walk along Beach Dr. and end up either at the Vinoy for lunch…or, the beautiful new Pier with all that it has to offer.
