Property Description
A rare opportunity to own a charming St. Petersburg cottage featuring a 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom main residence along with a versatile detached 2-in-1 accessory structure housing both a garage and an active 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom flex suite space. With a separate entrance, sliding glass door, full bathroom, and separately metered water and electric, the detached structure offers ~500 sq ft of multi-use space ideal for guest quarters, a private office, studio, home gym, or future multi-generational living.
The main home retains classic cottage character, opening into a welcoming front entry room currently styled as a home office and mudroom drop zone.
Inside, enjoy central heat and air, two comfortable bedrooms, an updated kitchen with a built-in ice maker and dishwasher. In the living room, a wood-burning fireplace that delivers authentic warmth modern builds cannot replicate.
Attached directly to the flex suite, the integrated garage provides valuable dedicated space for possible vehicle parking, workshop projects, equipment storage, and tools.
Modern efficiency upgrades elevate the property even further. A solar panel system paired with a universal EV charger keeps electric costs exceptionally low compared to typical area averages, offering substantial ongoing power savings.
Outside, the spacious backyard provides ample room to entertain, garden, store recreational equipment, or create your dream outdoor living space.
This property offers an exceptional setup for a first-time buyer, creative homeowner, investor, or anyone seeking room to grow without paying a premium for someone else's stylistic choices.
Located with quick access to Central Avenue, downtown St. Petersburg, dining, Gulf beaches, and Tampa International Airport.
Sold AS-IS. Buyers are advised to perform due diligence regarding measurements, zoning, permitted uses, and solar transfer terms. Offers to be submitted on standard FAR/BAR contract. Select photos of the detached unit have been digitally decluttered to remove personal belongings.
