2602 Upton St S Gulfport, FL 33711

Virtually Staged. Open House Saturday evening from 5:30 to 7:30 with wine and Gulfport breezes, and Sunday from 12:00 to 2:00. This perfect Gulfport bungalow is the one buyers wait for, and it is not expected to last past the weekend. Welcome to this charming, delightfully classic bungalow in Gulfport's Waterview Park neighborhood. The main house is a 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom home with 1,005 square feet, true hardwood flooring, cove ceilings, cove doors, excellent natural light, and the warm original character that makes a Gulfport bungalow feel like home. The pristine vintage pink tile bathroom keeps the home beautifully connected to its bungalow roots, while the layout and feel are bright, comfortable, and full of personality. The lot and neighborhood are shaded by mature trees that help make outdoor living comfortable all day long. The fenced backyard feels private, tropical, and unmistakably Gulfport, with Royal palms, a fruit-producing mango tree, a fruit-producing pecan tree, and mature landscaping. There are 4 brand-new wells still under warranty, along with an irrigation system, giving you years of low-cost watering to keep the landscaping lush without running up your water bill. There is also an 8 by 10 shed on a concrete pad for extra storage. The home has been carefully maintained over the years with newer upgrades including A/C, hurricane windows, roof, and exterior paint. It sits approximately 3 feet above the street, in Flood Zone X on the edge of Disston Heights Ridge located on a block that did not flood during Helene. Flood insurance is not required by the current owner's mortgage company, giving buyers an important detail to explore with their own lender and insurance provider. In the back, the property includes a freshly renovated 308 square foot modern loft-style bonus space with its own separate entrance. Previously rented for $1,300/month, this flexible space adds excellent options for guests, work-from-home use, studio space, extended stays, or potential income-producing use subject to buyer due diligence and city requirements. The loft-style bonus space features vaulted ceilings, modern finishes, a kitchen area, bathroom, and a clean modern twist. This space is currently non-permitted and should be treated as flexible bonus space. The street is lined with well-kept homes and mature landscaping, creating a quiet, cared-for micro-neighborhood just minutes from downtown Gulfport, Gulfport Beach, St Pete Beach, and downtown St. Pete. Located about 1 mile from downtown Gulfport, roughly 1 mile from Gulfport Beach, about 5 miles from downtown St. Petersburg, and about 10 minutes to St Pete Beach, this home offers quick access to shopping, dining, waterfront fun, and world-class beaches.
