Experience refined living in this exceptional single-level executive residence in the guard-gated community of Placido Bayou. Rarely available with this generous square footage and versatile floor plan, this Rutenberg-designed home offers the ideal combination of four bedrooms, a spacious bonus room, dedicated office, and a coveted three-car garage. Thoughtfully designed, the layout provides the perfect balance of open gathering spaces and private retreats, making it especially well-suited for multi-generational living, extended family, or owners with frequent guests.

A custom-designed front landscape with dramatic evening illumination creates a striking first impression, while the side-entry three-car garage enhances the home's timeless curb appeal. Step inside to soaring ceilings and expansive living spaces where your eyes are immediately drawn through the home. One of this residence's most captivating features is the seamless connection to the outdoors, with peaceful views of the sparkling pool and cascading waterfall enjoyed from nearly every main living area—including the privately-situated primary suite. The ever-present backdrop of moving water and lush tropical surroundings creates an atmosphere that feels more like a private resort than a neighborhood home.

The open-concept kitchen seamlessly connects to the inviting family room and showcases rich custom cabinetry, built-in features, and a warm gas fireplace framed by plantation-shuttered windows. Privately tucked away, the spacious primary suite offers a peaceful retreat where you can wake each morning to calming pool and waterfall views. The beautifully appointed ensuite features an updated walk-in shower, jetted soaking tub, dual sinks and an oversized customized walk-in closet. On the opposite wing of the home, three additional bedrooms and two full bathrooms provide exceptional privacy and flexibility.

Step outside to your own private backyard oasis where an elevated screened lanai, soothing waterfall, and fully equipped outdoor kitchen set the stage for effortless Florida living. Whether hosting friends or enjoying a quiet evening, this outdoor retreat is designed to be enjoyed year-round. Additional highlights include a whole-house Generac generator, gas fireplace, gas tankless water heater, new zoned HVAC system with updated ductwork, stainless steel KitchenAid appliances, and a spacious laundry room with utility sink and extra space to air dry delicates.

Ideally located just minutes from vibrant downtown St. Petersburg, you'll enjoy easy access to acclaimed dining, boutique shopping, the Vinoy Golf Club, Racquet Club tennis and pickleball facilities, beautiful Gulf beaches, Tampa, and two international airports. For added peace of mind, the home experienced no flooding during Hurricanes Helene or Milton.
