Mid-Century Modern Gem with a Private Outdoor Oasis! Built in 1959, this spacious ranch-style Mid-Century Modern home blends timeless character with thoughtful updates and an incredible indoor-outdoor lifestyle. Lovingly cared for and ready for its next owner, this home offers generous living spaces, abundant natural light, a spectacular pool area, and a location that puts Florida's best attractions within easy reach. Step inside to a welcoming living room featuring a beautiful bay window, skylights, and a stunning three-sided beveled-glass and travertine surround wood-burning fireplace that serves as a dramatic focal point and can be enjoyed from both the living and dining rooms. The dining room steps down from the living area and flows naturally into the impressive kitchen-truly designed with entertaining in mind. The chef-inspired kitchen features a huge granite breakfast bar, pendant lighting, stainless steel appliances including a new dishwasher, microwave and refrigerator, modern backsplash, large barn-door pantry, and a greenhouse window overlooking the pool and patio. Whether you're preparing a casual meal or hosting a crowd, there's plenty of room to gather. The real showstopper is the private outdoor oasis. A sparkling saltwater pool with a gas-heated waterfall spa is surrounded by durable paver decking and a spacious screened enclosure. The impressive 35-foot covered porch provides plenty of room for outdoor dining, lounging, and entertaining year-round. Newer white vinyl fencing adds privacy and completes the backyard retreat. Inside, low-maintenance Mexican-style ceramic tile flows throughout the home. Vaulted ceilings, skylights, and sky tubes bring natural light into the spacious interior. The split-bedroom floor plan provides privacy, with an impressive primary suite featuring a huge walk-in closet and its own new mini-split AC. The ensuite bath offers a new tall vanity, spa tub, separate shower, generous linen storage, and a new water heater. Three additional bedrooms provide flexibility for family, guests, a home office, hobbies, or other needs. The fourth bedroom is currently being used as an oversized interior laundry room and includes a newer washer and dryer plus a French door leading directly to the pool area. Outside, the front yard welcomes you with a decorative fountain, sprinkler system, attractive wrought-iron fencing, and mature landscaping. The massive oversized detached two-car garage is extra deep and equipped with workbenches, shelving, and overhead storage. It's an ideal space for a workshop, hobby area, home gym, mancave, or entertaining space. The generous driveway also provides room to accommodate an RV. Major updates provide added peace of mind, including a new 3-ton central AC (2025), new mini-split AC for the primary suite (2025), and a whole-house Generac generator (2025) powered by propane. And then there's the location. Just minutes from Florida's beautiful Gulf beaches and a short drive to vibrant downtown St. Petersburg, you'll have easy access to award-winning dining, world-class museums, entertainment, Rays and Rowdies games, shopping, and everything that makes the area such a desirable place to live. Bay Pines VA Medical Center is also conveniently nearby. Lovingly cared for, thoughtfully updated, and ready for a new owner to make it their own-this distinctive Mid-Century Modern home offers space, flexibility, privacy, and the Florida lifestyle you've been waiting for.
