*Instant Equity...listed UNDER Appraised Value* Own a part of iconic and historical Pass-A-Grille as the new homeowners of "Casablanca De Olivas." Declared with Historic Designation by the City of St Pete Beach in 2020, Casablanca De Olivas is a true gem of Pass-A-Grille. Located at 3401 Casablanca Ave and built in 1928 on a double-sized lot. Legend states that it was built by the famous Henry Dupont who is also the architect of the famous Don Cesar Hotel. She sits in the brilliant cast of the Don Cesar Hotel and all of its grandeur and just steps from the beach! From inside the home, you have a clear view of the "Pink Castle" from almost every room. It has all the modern amenities while maintaining touches of The Roaring 1920's such as the glass door handles, original fold-down ironing board cabinet and wood burning fireplace. The exterior has a Spanish flare popular of the era with new terracotta barrel tile roof (2023) and white stucco walls. Upon entering the curved wooden front door, you walk upon the grand living room with original hardwood floors, soaring ceiling and contemporary wood burning fireplace with a contemporary tile surround. This is an exquisite space to entertain and take in the grand feel of the home with unobstructed views of the Don Cesar Hotel. Open to the living room is the modern and tastefully styled chef's kitchen complete with white wooden cabinets, gorgeous white quartz, Bosch stainless steel appliances, wooden range hood and pot filler, induction cooktop, travertine backsplash, and a massive kitchen island. Just off the stunning kitchen is a butler's pantry with an additional stainless steel sink, wine cooler and custom wooden shelving. There are two bedrooms on the first floor, one of which could serve as a main bedroom suite as it's coupled with the downstairs bathroom featuring a tiled walk-in shower. The other room functions as a smaller bedroom or a perfect office/den. Carry on up the grand staircase to the second floor which has 3 more bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The main suite has a graciously sized bedroom and an en-suite bathroom. This bathroom has been refreshed and the original floors were intentionally left as a nod to the character of the home. The additional two bedrooms are on the other side of the home lending to an ideal bedroom layout. They share a beautiful bathroom with a walk-in shower and glass door cabinetry that was originally part of the kitchen. Custom work throughout! The location of this house couldn't be more ideal. The powder white sandy beach and warm aqua blue Gulf waters are just across the street from which you can walk through the neighborhood's deeded access. Just a few doors down is a boat ramp making accessing the Gulf of Mexico perfectly seamless. The shops and gourmet restaurants of Pass-A-Grille are a short drive, golf cart or bike ride away. Enjoy museums, nightlife, restaurants, concerts, shopping and more in Downtown St Petersburg. Tampa International Airport and St Petersburg airport are both within 35 min. Casablanca De Olivas is truly a home you will never find again.
