Description
This original Craftsman bungalow in Historic Old Northeast—affectionately known as the “Grasshopper Bungalow”—is a rare offering that blends timeless architectural charm with curated modern updates. Set along a picturesque brick-lined street just moments from downtown St. Petersburg’s waterfront, dining, parks, and cultural attractions, the home delivers both character and lifestyle in equal measure. The inviting living room is rich in original detail, featuring wood flooring, crown molding, plantation shutters, and a gas-log fireplace that anchors the space with warmth and sophistication. The kitchen balances classic design with elevated finishes, offering white cabinetry with glass-front uppers, dark countertops, stainless steel appliances with gas range, patterned tile flooring, and a wood-paneled ceiling accented by statement lighting. Spanning the width of the home, the air-conditioned Florida room serves as a true extension of the living space—ideal for entertaining, dining, or a refined home office—surrounded by windows that frame views of the backyard. The primary suite is enhanced by a spa-inspired, updated bathroom featuring a modern vanity with stone countertop and vessel sink, contemporary lighting, and a walk-in shower with subway tile surround, frameless glass enclosure, pebble-style flooring, and a built-in niche. Outdoors, a private tropical sanctuary awaits, complete with a heated saltwater pool and spa, paver decking, and lush, mature landscaping that creates an intimate, resort-like setting rarely found in the neighborhood. A welcoming wraparound front porch and off-alley parking complete this exceptional Historic Old Northeast residence.
