***LOW FLOOD INSURANCE (quote attached) + TRANSFERABLE DRYWOOD TERMITE WARRANTY*** ICONIC & TURNKEY ELEVATED WATERFRONT LIVING WITH 180° SOUTH-FACING VIEWS OF BOCA CIEGA BAY IN ST. PETE BEACH Featured as “HOUSE OF THE WEEK” in the April 2026 edition of WSJ (Wall Street Journal). Originally designed and built by an architect, and later fully reimagined in 2024, this architect- and engineer-designed MASTERPIECE draws inspiration from the serene luxury resort of Soneva Fushi in The Maldives, blending TIMELESS DESIGN with MODERN COMFORT. Situated on the coveted shores of St. Pete Beach and nestled amidst LUSH NATIVE LANDSCAPING, it offers a rare blend of LUXURY, PRIVACY, and TRANQUILITY. This BEAUTIFULLY REMODELED 3BD / 3BA home with nearly 2,200 sq ft stands out for its wood finishes and sculptural form, which has been likened to a sailboat, featuring a split layout designed to MAXIMIZE LIGHT AND WATER VIEWS from nearly every angle and room. Showcasing SOARING CATHEDRAL and DOUBLE-HEIGHT CEILINGS, abundant NATURAL LIGHT, heavy TIMBER BEAMS, and an OPEN-CONCEPT LAYOUT that flows seamlessly from the main living area to an EXPANSIVE WATERFRONT BALCONY, the home feels both dramatic and welcoming. At its heart, a palm-filled central courtyard enhances the connection with nature and creates a serene focal point. Recent upgrades include NEW FLOORING, a REDESIGNED KITCHEN, and UPGRADED BATHROOMS, highlighted by a spa-inspired Primary Suite, along with a freestanding soaking tub, a RED-LIGHT THERAPY ROOM, and a ONE-OF-A-KIND attic-level PLAY AREA with a catamaran-like HAMMOCK and BUILT-IN BALL PIT. ALL SYSTEMS have been RECENTLY UPGRADED: AC (2020), Electrical panel (2024), 40-yr METAL ROOF (2013), NEW FASCIA & LEAF GUTTER-FILTER (2025). The lower level adds a 330 sq ft AIR-CONDITIONED BONUS WELLNESS or HANGOUT SPACE with a bathroom and outdoor shower (not included in the living square footage), while also enhancing the shaded first-floor OUTDOOR LIVING EXPERIENCE, including a COVERED COASTAL BREEZEWAY LOUNGE, creating a relaxed open-air retreat beneath the home. Enjoy 5 BALCONIES, each offering its own purpose and character for entertaining, relaxing, or taking in the water views, along with wraparound waterside decking, an adjoining roof deck, and ground-floor shaded patios. These spaces open to a private outdoor setting complete with LUSH LANDSCAPING, a PRIVATE SANDY BEACH, a 9-PERSON HOT TUB, a FIRE PIT, a CIRCULAR DRIVE, and a DOCK on deep water for boating enthusiasts, which can also be used as a fishing pier. The dock delivers the ULTIMATE WATERFRONT EXPERIENCE with a 26’ walkway, an expansive 10’ x 12’ platform with a built-in bench, a swim ladder, and dual mooring arms. Built with EXCEPTIONAL CRAFTSMANSHIP, the home has demonstrated remarkable resilience, with structural integrity evident throughout, and has WITHSTOOD ALL MAJOR HURRICANES. Ideally located just a SHORT WALK TO THE WHITE SANDY BEACHES of the Gulf and minutes from local favorites such as Sea Critters Cafe, Paradise Grille, Pass-a-Grille Beach, and the iconic Don CeSar, this beachside setting offers a CHARMING COASTAL LIFESTYLE that feels like a small village rich in history, with REFINED DINING and TIMELESS CHARACTER all around. => CALL/TEXT TODAY TO SCHEDULE YOUR PRIVATE SHOWING, AS THIS IS A RARE OPPORTUNITY TO OWN A DISTINCTIVE WATERFRONT PROPERTY COMBINING ARCHITECTURE, LIFESTYLE, LEGACY, AND LOCATION.
