Uniquely St. Pete

Offered  for $1,600,000

 

Enter the neighborhood beneath a graceful canopy of live oaks that frames the approach to 2 Lincoln Avenue South. This end-unit, elevated Spanish Mediterranean villa is nestled in Marina Bay, a meticulously manicured 60-acre gated waterfront community near Eckerd College, Bayview Isles, and Tierra Verde, overlooking the tranquil shores of Boca Ciega Bay.

 

Step inside to discover a haven of natural light, with vaulted ceilings and expansive windows and sliders illuminating the SINGLE-LEVEL LIVING space. The recently remodeled kitchen is a chef's dream, featuring brand new quartz countertops and backsplashes, floor-to-ceiling cabinetry, and Samsung stainless steel appliances, including a new refrigerator, dishwasher, and microwave (2024). Additionally, there is the added convenience of natural gas cooking.

 

Indulge in luxury within the primary suite, complete with sliders to the lanai, custom California Closets, and a spa-inspired bath featuring a double sink vanity, walk-in shower, and jacuzzi tub. Relish outdoor living on the upgraded screened-in lanai, offering unobstructed water views and a tranquil retreat.

 

The home also features HURRICANE IMPACT windows, sliders, and a garage door for peace of mind. The two additional bedrooms, situated at the front of the home, share a nicely appointed full bath with a walk-in shower. The entire living space is accessible by a PRIVATE ELEVATOR from the nearly 2,000-square-foot lower level, complete with a 4+ car garage finished with epoxy flooring and loads of additional storage space perfect for a home gym, workshop, or art studio.

 

Outside the home, Marina Bay's allure is heightened by lush tropical landscaping and numerous lakes scattered throughout the community. Serving as a virtual nature preserve, Marina Bay is home to a variety of wildlife, including osprey, herons, egrets, ibis, and ducks. Witness pelicans diving for fish and enjoy the playful presence of dolphins and manatees in Boca Ciega Bay beside the community’s deep-water marina. Community amenities abound, featuring two pools (one with geothermal heat for year-round swimming), two spas, a fitness center, a clubhouse, and a fishing pier adjacent to the docks. Marina Bay is a pet-friendly haven, conveniently located just 10 minutes from downtown St. Pete, 25 minutes from Tampa Airport, and a short bike ride along the protected paths of Pinellas Trail to Passe-a-Grille and St. Pete beaches.
