About This Home
As of June 2021I call this “The Turtle House” on St Pete Beach. An adorable beach bungalow that was totally renovated by the former owner, including the electric, plumbing, AC, bathrooms, kitchen, windows, doors and appliances. There is a sun-filled foyer right as you enter the front door that has multiple purposes; office, reading room, kid’s playroom, etc. Then a large living room, which could also hold a dining area if preferred, a galley kitchen with stainless steel appliances and granite counters, 2 bedrooms, one with an ensuite bathroom and walk-in shower. The other full bathroom has a tub. There is a dining room that could also be used as a den. Lots of options. The current owners added a lovely, screen-enclosed back patio off the dining room. The laundry room, with additional storage, is separated from the house by a covered carport. A spacious back yard is covered with Florida-friendly crushed shells and has plenty of room for a pool. The Turtle House is very close to the St Pete Beach Community Center (membership required), with a pool, fitness center, and other activities. Also nearby is the Corey Avenue Shopping District, many restaurants, shops, and Upham Beach on the Gulf of Mexico. St Pete Beach was named the #1 beach destination in the United States and #5 in the world! (Trip Advisor Travelers Choice Award 2021) And you’re only about 10 miles to downtown St. Petersburg, with its trendy vibe and fabulous new Pier. Only about 15 miles to St Pete / Clearwater airport; 26 miles to Tampa International. You can get here from anywhere!
