Experience truly unique and refined waterfront living in this one-of-a kind, 3/3 end-unit townhouse located within the exclusive gated (and guarded) community of Caya Costa. Bordered by a protected preserve to the east, this incredible property offers dramatic views of picturesque Riviera Bay to the south, providing the rare opportunity to watch manatees, dolphins, and native wildlife play - literally in your backyard! A beautiful staircase and elegant chandelier create a striking first impression as you enter the home, and the open main living area is highlighted by soaring vaulted ceilings, a wood burning fireplace, and expansive windows providing an abundance of natural light. The well-designed chef's kitchen features floor-to-ceiling wood cabinetry, a dual convection oven, ample storage, a built-in bread box, stone countertops, and upgraded stainless steel appliances - ideal for serious entertainment or everyday living. The kitchen also offers convenient access to the attached one-car garage and in-unit washer and dryer. Completing the first floor is a full bathroom and a versatile guest bedroom (that can easily serve as a private home office), plus a large, screened-in 17-foot lanai providing the perfect setting for outdoor dining and relaxing while enjoying the stunning water views. Upstairs, two spacious bedrooms each feature their own private ensuite bathrooms. The luxurious primary suite offers a large walk-in closet, an expansive bath, dual vanities, and a screened balcony providing the same dramatic bay views as downstairs but in a private and intimate setting - perfect for morning coffee or a romantic happy hour! Residents of Caya Costa enjoy an array of resort-style amenities including a community pool, clubhouse, tennis & pickleball courts, boat ramp, and scenic walking trails. Conveniently located near eclectic downtown St. Petersburg, this home provides quick access to fine dining, shopping, entertainment, private schools, local parks, preserves, and so much more.
