Charm, Character and Quality - if these attributes are what you're looking for in your next home, you have come to the right place. This two-bedroom, one-bathroom house built in 1936, could be the answer to your dreams. Located in an up-and-coming, very desirable part of St Petersburg, a few minutes from thriving downtown, just north of St Anthony's Hospital and within short walk to Woodlawn Park, this classic house is just waiting for a buyer with the vision to restore it to the gem it once was. With beautiful hardwood floors throughout the house, except for kitchen and bathroom, and high ceilings, it seems much more spacious than 1,242 square feet. The living room is 13' 6"x 20' and the beautiful free-standing fireplace immediately catches your eye when you walk in through the front door. There is a formal dining room plus a separate room off the kitchen large enough for a kitchen table and chairs. When you transition from one room to the next, you will be walking through arched doorways. Speaking of doors, throughout the house you'll find very unique ones, painted white with stained wood-inlaid panels. There is a bonus room that may be used as an office in the rear of the house for anyone who works from home to use. The good-sized primary bedroom has two closets including a walk-in closet, which is difficult to find in a house of this age. In addition to easy access to downtown St Petersburg, the house is located between Martin Luther King Jr and 16th St N, each of which has plenty of places to eat and shop. One more potential benefit of owning this house is it is located in an area of St Petersburg that permits Accessory Dwelling Units (ADU's), smaller dwelling units, to provide additional income if a buyer wants to pursue that option. Prospective buyers who are considering adding something like this must contact the City of St Petersburg Zoning and Permitting departments to verify. Due to the age of the roof, which is estimated to be approximately 29 years old, and the age of the house, there is a likelihood that the current wiring may need to be replaced, only cash offers will be considered.
