3938 4TH ST S St Petersburg, FL 33705

Welcome home to this beautifully restored modern 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom, barn house and studio guest suite above the detached garage. As soon as you walk in, you will be charmed by the archways between rooms, the original hardwood floors, and the exposed brick chimney that the owners have repurposed into a bar area. Roof is brand new (2021), AC is 2016, and all electric is updated. The layout of the main house gives a variety of options with a bedroom and en suite bathroom on the first floor with a door to the backyard. This could serve as a bedroom as intended or a great home office to welcome guests without opening up the entire house. Two additional bedrooms and bathroom are upstairs, allowing for a split bedroom floorplan if desired. Both bathrooms have updated tile, fixtures, and vanities, and the kitchen has been remodeled to be truly unique: marble countertops with a waterfall edge, stainless steel appliances, soft-close cabinets, and the original brick chimney with live edge wood shelving come together to make a space unlike any other. An open flow between the kitchen and dining rooms allow for easy entertaining while cooking and guests can enjoy the charm of what's displayed in the built-ins framing the dining room table as they enjoy dinner. French doors lead from the dining room to the screened porch--a great place to enjoy a morning or after dinner coffee. The classic charm continues into the living room with a wood burning fireplace complete with a new marble hearth to match the counters just around the corner. Outside you will find an irrigated yard and oversized deck to make your own. A TV box with electric is conveniently located against the house to enjoy evenings outside while watching TV from the deck. Above the garage is a whole extra home to use an a rental, office, or guest house. Already furnished, it has functioned as an income-producing, 5-star rated AirBnB for nearly 5 years and potential abounds to maintain that or adjust it to fit the new owner's needs. Below the guest house is the 2-car garage offering a finished laundry wall with cabinetry, counters, and shelving, and additional refrigerator as well as ample storage space. This house is located in the Bayou Bonita neighborhood just 5 minutes south of downtown St. Pete and 15 minutes from St. Pete Beach. It is walkable to several neighborhood favorites including Munch's Diner (featured on The Food Network's Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives), Southside Coffee (a high-quality local coffee shop), and Mullets Fish Camp (a family-friendly, fresh seafood restaurant), as well as just a block and a half from the beautiful waters of the back bayou to enjoy evening strolls, complete with wading bird sightings, friendly neighbors, and the occasional dolphin and manatee appearances.
