Historic Kenwood home on a rare corner double lot facing Seminole Park, listed on the historic registry and renovated to preserve its 1949 character while offering the comfort, function and confidence buyers want today. The renovation goes well beyond cosmetics, with a new roof, new HVAC, new ductwork, new insulation, new electrical panel, new hurricane impact windows, sliders and doors, a new tankless water heater and a resurfaced pool with replaced equipment. Light-filled living and dining spaces set the tone, with a large front window framing views of Seminole Park, complemented by coved ceilings and original molding that reflect the home’s heritage.
The spacious modern kitchen features quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, crown-molded cabinetry, a full-height mosaic backsplash and a large window over the sink with views of the side yard. A kitchen-adjacent butler’s pantry offers a sink, extra cabinetry and counter space for prep and storage, with laundry function thoughtfully tucked into the same area. The lounge room adds flexible living space, with natural flow from the kitchen area to the backyard and pool. A nearby half bath adds everyday convenience for guests and pool use.
The split-bedroom layout offers privacy, with three bedrooms in one wing and the primary suite on the other side of the home. The primary suite includes room for a king bed, a renovated en suite bath with walk-in shower and a preserved cedar-lined walk-in closet that reflects the home’s original charm.
Outside, the large pool, paver patio and oversized yard create rare outdoor living space in the heart of Historic Kenwood. Parking is also a premium in this neighborhood, and this property delivers with alley access, garage parking and a double carport. Plenty of room for an ADU. All of this is just blocks from Central Avenue and Grand Central District, with close proximity to downtown St. Pete (~10 mins), I-275 (~5 mins) , Tampa International Airport (~25 mins) the Gulf beaches (~15 mins).
