Description of Property
A Timeless Treasure in the Heart of Historic Jungle Prada Welcome to a rare opportunity to own a true piece of St. Petersburg history. Built in 1924 and nestled along the charming brick-lined streets of the Jungle Prada neighborhood, this Mediterranean-inspired estate offers over 6,600 square feet of architectural elegance, character, and potential. This remarkable home was lovingly chosen by its current owners after 25 years living in the legendary Waldorf Astoria in New York City. The seller, a renowned fashion designer, was drawn to the home’s one-of-a-kind details and classic grandeur—a perfect canvas for creative expression and entertaining. From the moment you arrive, the home enchants with its ornate arched entryways, marble columns, Venetian plaster walls, and soaring ceilings. Inside, you’ll find 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, spread across the main residence and a fully equipped, private 2-bedroom in-law suite with its own entrance, kitchen, and living areas—ideal for extended family or guests. Original features abound, telling the story of over a century of craftsmanship: decorative fireplaces with marble surrounds, custom woodwork, ironwork, and dramatic formal spaces designed for both intimate evenings and grand occasions. The professional kitchen—complete with a 6-burner gas cooktop, granite counters, and a custom island—offers a perfect blend of function and old-world charm. The first-floor primary suite features French doors to a private patio, a cozy gas fireplace, and a spa-inspired bath with soaking tub and walk-in shower. Upstairs, a second primary suite opens onto a private balcony overlooking the lush, tropical backyard. Outdoors, the .44-acre lot is a true sanctuary, complete with a sparkling California style pool, mature tropical gardens, and plenty of space to relax or entertain. The property remained high and dry during recent hurricanes, offering peace of mind along with timeless beauty. Though already filled with character and elegance, this home offers the perfect opportunity for updates and restoration to truly make it your own. Whether you lean into its historic roots or infuse it with modern sophistication, this estate is a canvas ready for your vision. Located just minutes from the waterfront, award-winning beaches, downtown St. Petersburg, and some of the area's finest dining and cultural attractions, this is more than a home—it’s a lifestyle, a legacy, and a story waiting to continue. Don’t miss this once-in-a-generation opportunity. Schedule your private showing today and step into the elegance of a bygone era—ready to be reimagined as your forever home.
