The story
Brand new and never lived in, this corner residence at Strum Place is one of just nine luxury townhomes in a gated enclave positioned on Central Avenue, St. Petersburg's iconic corridor connecting downtown to the Gulf beaches, accessible from both Central Avenue and 1st Avenue South. One of only a select few homes in the community with a fully installed elevator, this residence also features north, south and west facing windows that flood every level with natural light and a west-facing balcony perfectly positioned for sunset views. Enter through a private fenced courtyard into the ground floor, where a bedroom with a walk-in closet and its own full bathroom provides a welcoming space for guests, a home office, or a studio. Off the two-car garage, the elevator and generous under-stair storage make everyday living effortless. The community also offers dedicated guest parking for visiting friends and family. A decorative metal railing staircase, designed to maximize light flow, leads to the main living level where 10-foot ceilings and impact-resistant windows frame an open-plan kitchen, dining, and living space that opens through a three-panel slider to the balcony. The kitchen is appointed with custom wood cabinetry with soft-close drawers and doors, quartz countertops, ceramic tile backsplash, a full KitchenAid appliance suite including a French door refrigerator, induction range, built-in microwave, and dishwasher, plus a spacious island and walk-in pantry. Just off the main living space, a dedicated wet bar with matching tile backsplash adds an elegant entertaining touch, alongside a half bath. On the top floor, the primary suite offers dual vanities, a water closet, a linen closet, and an oversized frameless glass shower. The additional bedroom has its own full bathroom, and a full laundry room with sink serves the entire upper level. Hardwood flooring runs throughout every level of the home. After purchasing and before ever moving in, the owner made a series of deliberate upgrades: upper-stack cabinetry in the kitchen, a custom built-out pantry, custom built-ins throughout every closet on all levels, a fully built-out primary walk-in closet complemented by a separate custom-designed space perfect as a vanity or private desk, and designer light fixtures selected and installed throughout the home. The washer and dryer are also included. Situated in a non-flood zone with low HOA fees, this residence offers more than just a beautiful home - it offers a lifestyle. Steps from the SunRunner rapid transit line and the Pinellas Trail, and minutes from the energy of downtown St. Pete and the sugar sand beaches of the Gulf Coast, Strum Place is where thoughtful design meets one of Florida's most vibrant locations. A rare opportunity to own a truly turnkey luxury residence, brand new and entirely move-in ready.
