Experience luxury waterfront living in this meticulously remodeled home nestled in the historic Driftwood neighborhood, just a stone's throw from downtown St. Petersburg, Florida. A true architectural masterpiece, this residence draws inspiration from the iconic designs of Frank Lloyd Wright, with its original construction dating back to 1949 by the esteemed architects William B Harvard and Jack Dodd, both disciples of the legendary Frank Lloyd Wright. The expansive 122 feet of waterline offers unparalleled views of Tampa Bay and Big Bayou on an over ½ acre lot accented by large live oak trees and beautiful landscaping. The home, despite its waterfront location, boasts an elevation of 8.1 feet and is not flood-prone. A permit is in place for an 80-foot dock, 10,000 lb. lift, and space for a 60-foot yacht. Enter through the front door to discover a grand living and dining area, perfect for hosting gatherings. The great room has the original Brazilian mahogany accents and neon lighting throughout with spectacular views of the water and boasts a gas fireplace. The kitchen, with its half wall design, creates an intimate space for cooking and opens to laundry room and pantry, then an outdoor breezeway to the garage. The seamlessly updated space pays homage to the original design, featuring updated tile flooring in the kitchen and bathrooms alongside the preserved hardwood floors that grace the majority of the home. Modern conveniences include HVAC, roof, a whole house generator and windows - all updated in 2015, ensuring comfort and efficiency. The gourmet kitchen boasts Viking appliances, a 2-drawer dishwasher, a gas range, pot filler, warming drawer, microwave drawer, drink refrigerator and counter depth refrigerator with an abundance of cabinets and countertop space that wraps around the kitchen and continues into the great room for a wine and entertainment area highlighted by a 120 bottle wine refrigerator. The primary suite and three additional bedrooms are thoughtfully positioned, with the primary bedroom offering breathtaking views of the water and pool. The outdoor oasis includes a saltwater pool, redone with pebble-tec in 2015, and a stand-alone freshwater hot tub on the back deck.
