240 Driftwood Rd., St. Petersburg, FL 33705

Driftwood, a unique, intimate setting of winding streets under live oaks, just minutes from downtown has that old Florida feeling. This neighborly place hosts annual parades, raft races and holiday caroling. Neighbors enjoy the two parks, beach and waterfront deck overlooking Big Bayou and Tampa Bay. This waterfront, contemporary home has an amazing open water view from “Big Bayou” into Tampa Bay from the huge backyard, caged pool, and dock. The home is perfect for entertaining family and guests beginning with the huge marble foyer with circular library shelving to the left, open stairway on the right, and an overhead bridge to the master suite and additional bedroom suites on the second floor. Stepping down from the foyer to the formal living areas opens to a direct view of the pool and the waterfront beyond. The 2-story theater room, with a rich history of performances, is a great space for a media room. The first floor includes a private area, perfect as a suite for guests or office space. The kitchen, just off the formal dining room, is huge and both kitchen and dining rooms have views of the pool and open water. A secondary private staircase off the kitchen accesses the second story. This is an amazing home in historic Driftwood…the best kept secret in St Petersburg!
