This is the one you've been waiting for!! Located in the heart of South Pasadena, this gorgeous 3 bedroom, 2 bath block home was built in 2015 and has been meticulously maintained/upgraded by the current owners. As you pull onto your brick paver driveway, you'll notice the large sun shade sails to protect your vehicles from the hot Florida sun. Screen doors cover the entrance to the large 2 car garage, and will provide protection from those pesky evening bugs while you work on your car or tinker with projects outside. Need to pull the cars in the garage? No problem! They slide out of the way to provide easy access. As you make your way to the front door, you'll notice the beautiful, mature landscaping along the walkway, and throughout the front yard. Bahama drop-down hurricane shutters have been installed on every window, providing added peace of mind; and a roll-down hurricane shutter protects the rear sliding glass door. As soon as you step through your hurricane-rated front door, you'll be amazed by how open this home feels with its soaring, volume ceilings and recessed lighting. Beyond the entry are two spacious spare bedrooms with a generous spare bath; and across the hall is your indoor laundry room with access to the garage. Make your way down the foyer to your new kitchen, that also conveniently opens up to the main living area. Featuring beautiful dark wood cabinets with soft close drawers, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a thoughtful use of space - this kitchen truly is a chef's dream. The oversized countertop provides a spacious breakfast bar to enjoy your meals, or to use as a workspace. The living area has plenty of room for your sofa and loveseat, or a sectional. Prefer a formal dining area? There's space for that, as well!! The beautiful wood-look porcelain tile perfectly offsets the cool blue walls and dark cabinets in the kitchen. The master bedroom is located off of the living room, is large enough for your oversized furniture, and even features an en suite bath with walk-in closet. Every window on the interior of this home is adorned with plantation shutters - including the sliding glass door. Making your way outside, you'll find your own personal oasis. The large screened-in porch is perfect for that patio furniture you've always wanted to buy! Additional sun shade sails out back provide ample shade for grilling, gardening or playing outside. Tons of beautiful landscaping - included potted plants, a few staghorns, and yard art - create the perfect tropical oasis. Don't worry, an irrigation system was installed in both the front and back yards, and runs on public water to keep all of those plants happy and healthy! As you wander around the back of the property, you will find an additional shed for storage (that has been properly placed on a concrete pad for stability). Have pets? Additional yard space continues around the other side of the home, and the yard is fully-fenced with white vinyl fencing. Solar panels were installed in 2018 and have been completely paid for, lowering your monthly power bill, significantly. The sellers also had the electrical upgraded to support the use of their generator (which they have available for purchase, as well.) Did I mention this property is NOT in a flood zone?! Located less than 10 minutes from St. Pete Beach, and 5 minutes from the Pinellas Trail, this home truly checks all of the boxes. Make your appointment to view this one before its gone!
