Cheerful, bright and beautiful, the Miramar House is steps to the water. This expanded 2400 SF Colonial style home located in the desirable waterfront neighborhood is full of charm and situated on a large, level .30 acre lot. This home speaks to you for its stately stature and its great views from almost every room, to the incredible sunrises and sunsets to the proximity to downtown St Pete, shops, beaches, fishing, kayaking, marinas and galleries. This Colonial mini-estate dates back to 1920 offering unparalleled historic presence yet has modern touches and new additions for today’s lifestyle.
The Miramar House is a classic colonial with three plus bedrooms, fireplace, and many period details still intact. Tiled steps grace the entry into the foyer and living room and then through to the original “keeping room” with wood plank flooring, water views and magnificent brick see-through fireplace. Modernized throughout the years, the kitchen has a custom diner style bench, art deco vintage tiles designed in keeping with the original charm of this home and gas stove. The dining and living room with crown moldings, wood-burning fireplace, plank hardwood floors are just screaming out for a big Thanksgiving dinner. Trends may come and go, but colonials will always be wonderful.
This home could have up to 5 bedrooms. It has three bedrooms and another living room/den/nursery/bedroom upstairs with water views. The downstairs bedroom/office was until recently used as a mother-in-law suite with adjoining bathroom. A standalone closet was used in this room to make it a fourth bedroom. Today it’s used as a craft room. Could be your office? Or art studio?
