Welcome to your own TROPICAL PARADISE! Tucked away on a quiet dead-end street, this distinctive 3-bedroom, 2-bath POOL HOME offers unique architectural character and an extraordinary backyard designed for the Florida lifestyle! From its eye-catching roofline and covered front porch to the soaring vaulted KNOTTY-PINE CEILINGS and exposed beams, this is anything but your typical Florida ranch. Inside, the open living and dining areas feel surprisingly spacious beneath dramatic wood ceilings. Plantation shutters, country-chic laminate flooring and abundant natural light add warmth and charm. The eat-in kitchen features built-in storage and display space, ceramic tile flooring, Samsung Bespoke appliances and a GE range. The primary suite offers a private bath, double closet and access to the rear Florida room. Two additional bedrooms provide flexibility, including one with a unique loft for play or storage. Beyond the home's 998 sq. ft. of recorded living area, enjoy approximately 180 ADDITIONAL SQ. FT. in the enclosed Florida room, complete with expansive impact-rated windows, pool views and a wall-mounted AC unit. Both the primary bedroom and a guest bedroom open to this inviting space, blending indoor comfort with outdoor living. And then there's the TRUE SHOWSTOPPER: your own RESORT-STYLE BACKYARD! Extensively renovated in early 2026, this tropical retreat is ready for pool days, weekend barbecues and unforgettable get-togethers. The SOLAR-HEATED SALTWATER POOL has been beautifully resurfaced with new coping, pump and salt cell, surrounded by NEW PAVERS and low-maintenance ARTIFICIAL TURF. Gather under the TIKI CABANA with its refreshed thatched roof and bar-style seating, or enjoy the separate grilling area, lounging spaces and island-inspired storage shed. Reclaimed-water irrigation even includes sprinklers to rinse or cool the turf! Other highlights include a METAL ROOF with rooftop solar for electricity and separate solar pool heating, 2021 HVAC, 2024 tankless water heater, mostly impact-rated windows and an attached ONE-CAR GARAGE with automatic opener and laundry area. The approximately 0.14-acre lot has alley space behind and an open easement area on one side, adding separation from neighboring homes. Looking for a vacation retreat or investment opportunity? The CITY OF PINELLAS PARK ALLOWS SHORT-TERM RENTALS, including Airbnb-style stays, subject to applicable requirements. FURNITURE AND FURNISHINGS ARE NEGOTIABLE, offering the possibility of a furnished purchase!
