Under contract-accepting backup offers. TRULY UNIQUE PROPERTY, GREAT NEW PRICE! From the iconic Sailfish mailbox to the colorful handblown glass doorknobs and cabinet pulls throughout this amazing residence, you will be enchanted by the creativity and charm found in this unique and artsy Mid-Century Modern ranch home. With a base elevation of 9-ft, this home did not take on water during the 2024 storm season. This solid block construction home has ROOM FOR A POOL and is located on one of the most desirable streets on the island … directly across from multi-million-dollar waterfront homes on Boca Ciega Bay. Lovingly and meticulously designed for island living, relaxing and entertaining … no detail has been spared! As you enter through sleekly styled turquoise double doors, you’ll be impressed with the custom built-in design features that flow throughout the property: A dining cabinet that spans the entire wall with glass display cabinets and LED lighting, an entertainment unit complemented with embossed crown molding and interior lighting; and a coastal kitchen with navy blue flecked stone counters, quality cabinets and pantry space with pull-out shelves, a stainless steel backsplash, matching stainless appliances and under cabinet lighting. Recent upgrades include a Trane HVAC (2025), a hot water heater (2020) and a brand-new epoxy floor in the garage. An impressive 660 sq-ft addition to the back of the home included both a NEW SHINGLE AND FLAT ROOF (2017.) The large entertainment area has its own mini-split heat pump and features a wall of windows that brings the lush green outdoor oasis inside. The flooring is gorgeous beige honed and filled Travertine tile … beachy, beautiful and easy to maintain. A wet bar and second stainless refrigerator accompany light Ash cabinets with pull-out drawers and interior lighting, whimsical blown-glass cabinet pulls embedded with fish and coral, and sea-life art tiles to frame out the backsplash! Both full baths (the primary bath is ensuite) mirror the modern feel and celebrate the sea: Glass shower doors with fish, sea turtles and undersea foliage and unique eclectic lighting fixtures. The primary bedroom in the back of the home features a laminate wall system that houses a California-King platform bed, dual nightstands with pull-out shelves, interior LED lighting and storage bins. Two other bedrooms in the front of the home have built-in closet systems and porcelain tile floors. A lush, private shaded backyard features a brick lanai with gazebo, two storage sheds, an outdoor shower, and is bordered with native plantings. (Spa has been removed and does not convey.) Landscape stone in front and back = easy maintenance! A 2-car garage connects to a workshop space, providing a sanctuary for artisans and craftsmen. Fully airconditioned, the garage and workshop can be utilized year-round. TIERRA VERDE IS A SPECTACULAR ISLAND PARADISE tucked quietly away with easy access to everywhere … Head west within minutes to award-winning Gulf beaches, tiki bars and fun beachside attractions. Only a 10-minute drive to downtown St. Pete with its cultural attractions, sports venues, entertainment and fabulous restaurants. Fort DeSoto, offering an array of sugar sand beaches, fishing, camping, kayaking and miles of nature trails, is right down the Pinellas Bayway! And it’s only 30-40 minutes via I-275 to both international airports: TPA and SRQ. Schedule a showing today for an opportunity to own this unique and creative piece of paradise.
