Incredible Renovation Opportunity in Prime Northeast St. Petersburg Location! This nearly 100-year-old Farmhouse-style home, once beautifully renovated, presents a rare opportunity to restore a classic gem to its former glory. Located in the highly desirable Northeast St. Pete area, this two-story home was thoughtfully updated prior to storm damage from recent hurricanes. The second floor remains untouched, preserving its charm and potential. Inside, the home originally featured luxury vinyl plank flooring, hand-crafted moldings, bay windows, and a chef’s kitchen with dolomite countertops, stainless-steel appliances, a farmhouse sink, and a wine fridge with a dry bar. The inviting layout includes a cozy fireplace, a light-filled Florida room accessed through French doors, and three spacious bedrooms with two full bathrooms. Now ready for the next chapter, the home has had drywall professionally removed up to approximately four feet on the first floor, along with some flooring. The HVAC systems and appliances will need replacement. The second floor remains intact and showcases the care and quality that once defined the entire home. Outdoors, enjoy a brick paver patio and mature landscaping that creates a welcoming setting for future gatherings. The outdoor wood deck and bar will need some work. With a newer roof (2020) already in place all that is needed is the right buyer for a successful renovation. This property is located just minutes from vibrant downtown St. Pete, major hospitals, universities, shopping, and dining. Riviera Bay Park—with pickleball, tennis, and basketball courts—is within a short distance. Whether you're an investor or a buyer with a vision, this property offers outstanding potential in one of St. Petersburg’s most sought-after neighborhoods.
