2515 DRIFTWOOD RD SE St Petersburg, FL 33705

DON'T MISS the opportunity to see a bit of Old Florida in this charming Mark Dixon Dodd cottage, set under a canopy of mature oaks in this stunning waterfront neighborhood of Driftwood. It is rare for homes to go on the market in this small community of unique homes with its beautiful park like setting. Upon entering the home through the covered front porch it brings you to a welcoming foyer that leads to the living and dining rooms. High beamed ceilings in the living room, which are a signature feature of Mark Dixon Dodd homes, make this space open and inviting and showcases the original polished Coquina Limestone flooring, which is irreplaceable. French doors open to the back brick patio, which is shaded by an ancient oak tree. The kitchen and breakfast room combination is spacious and features Mexican terra cotta tiles. If you love entertaining, the shaded wood deck accessed from the kitchen is the perfect spot with room for private gatherings. The master bedroom has been expanded from the original design with the addition of wall closets, a study/sitting room and recently updated private master bathroom. The guest bedroom is comfortable and has access to the second bath down the hall, which has also recently been updated. Hardwood flooring in the home is the original random-width red oak planks with walnut pegs, which adds to the homes warmth and charm. The Driftwood community also includes a private Beach & Dock area for the residents to enjoy the water of the Big Bayou. Just an easy bike ride to downtown St. Petersburg, this neighborhood has its own corner restaurant, The Chattaway, where you can enjoy juicy burgers and often hear great music from locals. Inside freshly painted and New Roof in November 2021. As you can imagine, this property won't last long, don't miss this chance to own this beautiful Mark Dixon Dodd home.
