Discover the exceptional waterfront lifestyle of Bayway Isles, one of St. Petersburg's premier gated waterfront communities. Ideally situated within this private enclave, this lovingly maintained, single-level residence offers timeless comfort, thoughtful improvements, and an enviable boating location. Importantly, the home has experienced NO recent storm-related flooding, thanks to its natural elevation. With solid block construction, this gracious and spacious four-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath home welcomes you with soaring vaulted ceilings, excellent natural lighting, and an open floor plan. The expansive kitchen is a true centerpiece and perfect for entertaining, featuring beautiful custom wood cabinetry, an abundance of storage, all-wood drawers, and beveled granite countertops. The open layout features an impressive custom built-in entertainment wall, a formal dining area as well as a secondary formal living area. The split-bedroom floor plan offers privacy for the primary retreat and the adjacent 4th bedroom currently being used as an office. Three bedrooms feature walk-in closets, and the spacious primary suite also has a well-appointed bath featuring a separate soaking tub and shower as well as lanai and pool access. Step outside to enjoy the oversized screened pool and expansive rear lanai. For boating enthusiasts, the waterfront location is especially appealing, offering protected water and bridge-free access to open water – an exceptional advantage for those with larger boats. Major waterfront improvements include an 89-foot corrugated steel seawall with concrete cap completed in 2022 and a dock installed in 2017. Additional improvements include PGT hurricane-rated windows, HVAC replaced in 2022, a tankless water heater, and a major interior renovation in 2016. A two-car garage completes the package. Bayway Isles is an exclusive community offering the privacy and security of a gated neighborhood with 24-hour guard. Positioned just minutes from our gorgeous beaches and the same to booming downtown St Petersburg, an easy commute to Tampa and our top rated airports, this is a perfectly placed opportunity worth experiencing.
