HISTORIC OLD NORTHEAST BUNGALOW WITH RARE FOUR-CAR GARAGE + APARTMENT: Just one block from Beach Drive, this beautifully preserved two-bedroom plus den, two-bath bungalow pairs timeless character with one of the neighborhood’s rarest amenities, an approximately 725-square-foot four-car garage topped by a two-bedroom, one-bath apartment. Nestled within the charming streets of the Historic Old Northeast, the home welcomes you with warm wood floors, crown molding and thoughtfully maintained original details that create an atmosphere both refined and inviting. Sunlight filters through classic windows, casting a soft glow across the living spaces, where a gas fireplace with custom tile hearth and built-ins creates a natural focal point. The kitchen blends function with understated charm, featuring quarry tile floors, new granite countertops, custom cabinetry with thoughtful built-in features, a pullout pantry and a stainless farmhouse sink. It is further equipped with an integrated refrigerator with refrigerator/freezer drawer and interior water dispenser, a new microwave/convection/air fryer, and a retractable hood with light, along with gas cooking and a kitchen workstation. It opens with ease into the heart of the home, designed for living that feels relaxed and intentional. Just beyond, a screened dining porch offers a breezy, intimate setting that invites long, unhurried evenings. The bedrooms are peaceful and tucked away, while the den offers a flexible space for work, reading or guests. Behind the scenes, the home is equipped with modern comforts including updated HVAC, tankless water heating, storm protection, a security system with cameras, and natural gas generators serving the main home and the detached ADU, with no flood insurance required. The outdoor spaces feel curated yet effortless, with brick pathways, mature landscaping and private garden moments throughout. A detached ADU offers two bedrooms and one bath across approximately 725 square feet, complete with its dedicated parking space, ideal for guests or income potential. All this just near the waterfront and charm of downtown St. Petersburg, where daily life unfolds with a sense of ease and quiet beauty.
