Property Description
This exceptional WINDSTAR estate, originally built in 2007 and fully reimagined in 2020–2021, is a testament to timeless design, cutting-edge technology, and enduring value. Situated on one of the highest elevations on Snell Isle, this solid block-constructed home provides peace of mind in all weather, while its whole-home generator ensures seamless living, even when others go dark.
From the moment you enter the private front courtyard, you're met with a sense of curated elegance — every element of this home has been intentionally designed for both comfort and value retention. Inside, imported cabinetry from the Netherlands and sleek hidden drawer systems combine European sophistication with everyday functionality.
The chef's kitchen features ebony walnut wood finishes, induction cooking, Miele appliances, dual refrigerators, and instant hot water — all chosen for performance and aesthetic longevity. This space flows effortlessly into the living room and outdoor kitchen and lounge, ideal for hosting or relaxing in your private tropical escape.
The main level boasts two executive offices, a wine display, laundry room, drop zone, formal dining, breakfast nook, and two en-suite bedrooms — including a private-entry casita that adds tremendous flexibility for guests, extended family, or rental potential.
Upstairs, the primary retreat offers a spa experience designed by Alberto Apostoli, complete with a Turkish bath, sauna, and heat-resistant Abachi wood shower — rare, wellness-oriented features that elevate the home's future market appeal. Step onto your private balcony to take in peaceful water views and perhaps a glimpse of manatees gliding through your deep, protected waterfront dock.
The second floor also includes two additional en-suite bedrooms, a cozy flex/media room, and a second laundry area. Italian Elm floors by Garbelotto and lighting from Belgium and the Netherlands further reinforce the home's bespoke character and enduring materials.
Located just 1.3 miles from downtown St. Petersburg, this property offers the best of both worlds: serene, private waterfront living with proximity to cultural, culinary, and economic vibrancy. North Shore Park is just a short 3-mile bike ride away, expanding your recreational reach.
Homes of this caliber — higher elevation, turnkey, with storm-hardened infrastructure — will become increasingly rare and in demand. This is not only a place to live, but a strategic hold in one of Florida's most resilient luxury enclaves.
Recently named one of the “Top 15 Happiest Places in the US” by Outside Magazine, St. Petersburg offers unmatched lifestyle and economic opportunity — and this home positions you perfectly for both.
