Come see this Stately 3 Bedroom, 1.5 Bath Home, one of the few original 1925 estates in Historic Stonemont. This 2016 sq. foot story book home sits on two full lots and is located on what was once called "Lawyer's Row", only a stone's throw away from downtown St. Petersburg and 3 miles from the beaches, without the burden of flood insurance. See the fully cooled and heated sunroom with its original 1920's tiling. Spend many hours reading, relaxing and entertaining friends here. Light fills this home through 31 new storm resistant and energy efficient windows. The detached painted and finished garage would make a fine rental apartment or mother-in-law suite. This home is in proximity to the famous Kopper Kitchen restaurant, the natural market, acclaimed regional theatre and many small well-known shops. The original 1925 tile and heart-of-pine flooring is in impeccable condition. See the quaint attic entry, boasting the original bronzed fan used back in the days without air conditioning. It makes quite a conversation piece! This home could easily be transformed into a tropical paradise with plenty of room for a boat, large pool or individual play area. Surrounded by a new vinyl fence, this property stands out as the "grande dame" of homes on the block!
