655 16th Ave., St. Petersburg, FL 33704

Steeped in historic charm, this immaculately-maintained craftsman home presides over a manicured and expansive double corner lot in a serene and coveted historic district less than 10-minutes' walk from St Petersburg's famously-beloved downtown. The streetside landscaping is a masterfully-orchestrated symphony of color, shape and texture framing the property in tightly-cropped borders of jasmine, tufts of liriope, palms, hibiscus, and blousy shell ginger. Brick walkways wind through oak-filtered sunlight by day, and by night the dramatic lighting display would make Caravaggio himself stop to put paintbrush to canvas. The climate-controlled porch is irresistible no matter what the weather, and the honeycomb-labyrinth tile floor is a work of pure artistry. Inside, you'll discover details like the stately brick fireplace, french doors, wide craftsman trim and charming built-ins as well as thoughtful and lovingly-implemented updates. The floorplan is airy perfection, accommodating gatherings and quiet moments with equal grace. The kitchen area has gleaming granite, a six-burner gas range, and beverage center to make entertaining a flawless affair. The large pool and spa capitalize on Florida's year-round sunshine and make a perfect gathering spot for friends and family. A sunny courtyard-style patio and a romantic shade-garden are perfect for coffee or cookouts on a more intimate scale, and the detached pool house with full bath, vaulted ceiling, and central air could serve as a guest house or studio.
