Property Description

EXCEPTIONAL OPPORTUNITY IN BEAUTIFUL BAHAMA SHORES – AMAZING POOL HOME – LARGE CORNER LOT. Begin your mornings with a short stroll to the private neighborhood-owned waterfront park and watch the rising sun reflect off the Sunshine Skyway Bridge. This home offers bright natural light and an inviting openness with extraordinary warmth, character, and a practical use of space. Due to its excellence in construction and design, this spacious home was one of several in Bahama Shores to receive the “Medalion Home” designation upon its completion in 1959. William F. Gorman, who also developed Brightwaters Blvd. in Snell Isle, was the major builder/developer of this amazing community. In the early 1920s this area was to be developed as Alta Marina, but in the mid-1040s famed St Petersburg land-owner/developer Robert Lyons purchased the project from J.C. Stephenson and the name was changed to Bahama Beach (now Bahama Shores). This large home sits on a corner lot and offers four bedrooms and five full bathrooms. There are two master suites as well as the flexibility of a wonderful front living room area that can easily serve as an art studio, home theater, space for an office, your home gym, or even a large 5th bedroom or attached in-law suite with its own entry and en suite bathroom. Enjoy the benefit of a huge indoor laundry room, wonderful kitchen pantry, newly luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout the first level, huge walk-in closet in the 2nd level master, and exceptional storage everywhere you turn! Situated on a large lot with mature, tropical landscaping and the most stunning yard and gardens. The tranquil pool provides a wonderful outdoor space for relaxing, sunbathing, swimming, or simply enjoying time with friends and family. Bahama Shores is one of St Petersburg’s most sought after neighborhoods, and is convenient to the Boyd Hill Nature Park, St. Petersburg Golf & Country Club, Bay Vista Park and Boat Ramp, and offers easy access to our award-winning Gulf Beaches, vibrant Downtown St.Petersburg, USF, The Medical Center, & exciting developments of The Skyway Marina District.
