'Neighborhood of The Year' Bungalow and Garden Oasis in an Artist Enclave.

Historic Kenwood, National Neighborhood of the Year in 2020, chose this home for its 2021 annual Bungalowfest Tour of Homes, "The Garden Edition." The neighborhood is known for friendliness and inclusiveness, it is home to an Artist Enclave (many artists living and working from home studios) Porch parties; walking distance to bars, restaurants, museums, galleries, breweries, world famous DOG BAR (you can get a doggy fix there) Brick lined street, open parking (no driveway) Enjoy old time big open front porch which includes a dining table and 2nd seating area with 2 fans, fountain, mango tree, privacy in the front yard with large hedges; enter home to original wood floors and double hung windows, ample size living, dining, kitchen, laundry. This home has been most often referred to as 'charming, cozy, exudes abundant warmth' and my favorite..."It feels like a hug" I cannot agree more!

You will have many options to get outside in your own yard, the back yard is a tropical and private oasis with multiple seating and gathering spots, and fenced, or, venture out to world famous white sand gulf beaches (20-25 mins drive) or downtown waterfront (10 min drive) to see Dali Museum, Beach Drive. Public transportation avail, Sun Runner stop only a few blocks away- Sunrunner is new transit takes you from downtown to gulf beaches, currently free and fast. A small studio sits at the back of the property (detached) and is an artists studio, it will likely be occupied, by me, a professional portrait photographer and member of The Artist's Enclave.

I love this home and this neighborhood, and all that St. Petersburg has to offer, and welcome you to come and explore, and enjoy! PS should you wish to have vacation portraits taken I will happily suggest best places, times, and even take you there, with MY CAMERA, should you wish to add this service (photoshoot extra $)

Some of our favorite things to do:

Drink: Walk over to Central Avenue, (4 blocks) and explore shops, bars: Dog Bar, COCK, Dirty Laundry, Grand Central Brewhouse; 3 Daughters Brewing, La La.

Dine: Wild Child, Good Intentions, Eat Love Central, Taquirita, Urban Still House, Bo and Moes, La La, The Burg
Art: Grand Central Arts and Warehouse Arts District, both walking distance, and host monthly Art Walk, many independent galleries and shops here, but for more hop on the Sunrunner, head downtown check out: Dali Museum, The Chihully, Museum of Fine Arts; Arts and Craft Museum, The James Museum, Morean Arts Center, and many boutiques and galleries all about.

Sight See: Downtown St. Pete: The Vinoy Historic Hotel, The Pier, Beach Drive, or go west to world famous white sand beaches: Ft Desoto, Treasure Island, St. Pete Beach and so many gorgeous views all around.
(PS Currently the home has one of two bedrooms available, plus futon in the living area. The second bedroom is not occupied, but is used for my personal storage. At some point soon the 2nd bedroom will be available, with adjustment to rate.)

I do have a dog, who may be staying with me in the studio. (private entry on opposite end of property) Your privacy is my aim and my dog will either be leashed as we come in and out, or it will be fenced. He is very well mannered, rarely barks. I am well mannered, and never bark!
