Property Details
Grand and historic Mediterranean has soaring ceilings, vintage flooring and a spectacular AliKriste kitchen upgrade. It’s a great location a block from Coffee Pot Bayou, in the heart of St Pete’s Old Northeast neighborhood. Enter this home through the 130 Year Old front door, salvaged from Henry Wadsworth Longfellow’s summer home in Maine. Consider that you are entering a gallery or historic European Casa, with vintage Cuban tile and 3 distinct arches in the entry foyer. Soaring 14-foot barrel vaulted ceilings in the magnificent living room with heart pine floors and balcony overlooking. Looming to the ceiling is a large fireplace and chimney with original inset mirror. Both the living and spacious formal dining feature dramatic wrought iron chandeliers and sconces from the 1920’s. Upscale kitchen designer and installer, AliKriste, created a gourmet French Country design with limestone counters, custom wood cabinetry, stainless appliances, farm sink, vented hood and so much more. A cozy office overlooks a screened patio which leads to the Roman courtyard and beautifully updated pool. Spacious two-car garage is easily accessed from alley. This is for the purist and the artist.
