Welcome to Tierra Verde and sunny island living, Trip Advisor's 5th pick for destinations in the USA. Bike down the Pinellas Bayway to beautiful Fort Desoto Park with camping, fishing, and kayaking. Oh, and don't forget the beautiful sandy beaches to swim and play in. You can take a ferry for an excursion to Shell Key for birdwatching and tortoise and dolphin spotting. Fresh seafood, live music and cold drinks are easy finds on the "Island"!

This house is unique. The house was custom built with superior construction: stress pad concrete foundation floor and an Epideck concrete floor on the second level for the owner. When you enter the front door you have a view of the living room, dining room and the outdoor living space. The great room area has a 20+ foot vaulted ceiling and a stunning stone fireplace and views to the outdoor living space. The dining room is adjacent to both the great room and the butler's area. The kitchen is amazing with lots of storage and views to the outdoors. Newly remodeled with custom wooden cabinetry, Kitchen Aid appliances and granite countertops. You will want to do all the cooking there but wait there is an outdoor living area where you can put your grill. You also can dine, lounge and keep an eye on the swimming pool and spa. There are two bedrooms and a newly remodeled bathroom with a shower on the first living level. Upstairs you will find the large primary suite complete with high vaulted ceiling, large walk in closet, bathroom with both a shower and soaking tub and loft. The loft overlooks the great room downstairs. The bookcases in the loft area are not built in and do not stay. On the ground floor of this home is an 1800+ square feet of garage area which you can access through three garage doors. There is room for all your toys. You can park five cars and still have a workshop and plenty of additional storage. The roof was replaced in 2017 and the HVAC system has two units. One for the first floor living area and the second for the second floor living room area. The first floor living area system was replaced in 2018.

Tierra Verde has a community sports complex to include baseball fields, tennis courts and a playground. On the island there are multiple businesses and restaurants. The downtown area holds special events throughout the year to include a car show, Octoberfest, and a tree lighting. Your drive to St. Pete Beach, number 1 rated beach by TripAdvisor, is only 4 miles away, Downtown St. Pete and all its wonderful happenings is 11 miles away. Close airports include Tampa International and St. Pete/Clearwater.
