Resilient waterfront living with no interior flood damage, even during the 2024 storms. This four-bedroom residence is situated at the cul-de-sac point of Shore Acres' sought-after Waterway Estates, offering over 185 feet of upgraded seawall and panoramic canal frontage. Designed for boaters and lifestyle seekers alike, the oversized 800-plus-square-foot composite dock includes a 13,000-pound boat lift and a 3,000-pound kayak platform, both fully automatic. A five-minute paddle leads to scenic mangrove trails. Inside, recent renovations include new tile flooring throughout (2023) and a reimagined kitchen anchored by a custom waterfall island, Miele gas range and designer vent hood. Solid wood cabinetry, wine refrigeration, stainless appliances and generous quartzite countertops elevate the culinary experience. The home's open-concept layout showcases a wired Bose surround sound system, indoors and out, and three mounted outdoor televisions for effortless entertaining. The primary suite features a double vanity and walk-in shower, while the split-plan design adds privacy with three additional bedrooms and a full bath. Outdoor living is centered around a saltwater pool and gas-heated spa, surrounded by travertine decking, tropical landscaping, a covered back porch and a screened lanai to the side. Sunrise and sunset views unfold over a peaceful, no-traffic street, where dolphin sightings from the dock are part of daily life. The surrounding community is equally special, with annual block parties and neighbors who celebrate together. Just minutes away, downtown St. Petersburg, Northeast Shopping Plaza, waterfront parks and dining destinations offer a vibrant contrast to the serenity at home.
