Description of Property
**Iconic Waterfront Estate on Brightwaters Blvd on an Oversized lot with Direct Access to the Open Bay** Welcome to 321 Brightwaters Blvd NE, a rare and expansive waterfront estate in the heart of Snell Isle. Set on a 0.41-acre oversized lot with 140 feet of protected water frontage, this one-of-a-kind property offers an unmatched blend of sophistication, luxury, and downtown convenience. Boaters will appreciate the direct, bridge-free access to open Tampa Bay waters—ideal for sailboats and larger vessels alike. The residence is a thoughtfully preserved architectural treasure with intricate details inspired by Venetian palazzos. Originally designed by the esteemed S.V. Schooley, architect for C. Perry Snell, and constructed with terra cotta block for exceptional longevity, this Mediterranean Revival masterpiece blends timeless design with modern comfort across more than 5,300 square feet of elegant living space. The property is gated and fenced, providing additional privacy and tranquility. Rich in character with spectacular water views, the home features soaring arched windows and passageways, intricate hand-painted Italian-inspired accents, and three fireplaces that add warmth and ambiance throughout. It has been updated with hurricane impact windows and doors, combining classic craftsmanship with peace-of-mind resilience. The main home features four spacious bedrooms and four full baths, an attached one-car garage, and a separate two-car garage with a full bath and dedicated exercise space—offering the perfect blend of comfort for daily living and versatility for grand-scale entertaining. The sparkling waterfront pool is a breathtaking centerpiece, reminiscent of the Italian Riviera, with lush tropical landscaping, expansive entertaining decks, and a deep-water dock with a boat lift creating a serene escape. Whether you're lounging poolside enjoying the sunset or entertaining guests under the open sky, the setting evokes the romance and relaxed luxury of a seaside villa. Located just minutes from vibrant downtown St. Petersburg, the Vinoy Golf Club, waterfront parks, art galleries, and world-class dining, this is more than a home—this is a legacy estate!
