BETTER THAN EVER IN ITS 75 YEARS! This truly special property on a tree-lined corner near Childs Park and the Pinellas Trail, minutes from downtown St. Pete or Gulf beaches, has been transformed in so many ways by its owners during the last two years! The most obvious changes are outside, in the yard now certified by the National Wildlife Federation for its fruit trees and wide variety of flora and fauna. Beyond the picket-fenced and double-gated front yard, behind a wooden privacy fence of more than 200 linear feet with 4 locking entries (including double-wide rolling gates), you'll find an A-frame shed custom built for furry friends, an 8-by-10-foot metal garden shed on a level rock bed -- and a brand-new, hurricane-strength, unusually large metal outbuilding tailor-made for the owners' flexible use in storage, performance art and other business. This 360-square-foot structure rises 15 feet on an enhanced concrete pad, with twin 10-by-10-foot rollup doors and a pedestrian entry, so it can handle vehicles, business or gym equipment, or even studio space for music or dance. The yard also features a new concrete patio stamped as faux wood, raised planter beds, a compost area, koi pond, and security lighting. All this before we even focus on the house itself! The 1947 wood-frame home has been improved literally from the bottom up, with new concrete-block pilings and pressure-treated joists jacked for firmer undergirding, and the home fully tented for termites. Also new are the 2020 roof and electrical panel, 2021 fans and fixtures, 2022 wood laminate and vinyl floors, plus a reconfigured kitchen that added a range, microwave, cabinets, shelves and more. There's fresh paint inside and out, of course, as well as flowering window boxes, drip irrigation for front-yard plants, and other creative touches. All of this work was done with an eye toward a long future, but now life has changed for these owners, so someone else stands to benefit.
