300 RAFAEL BLVD NE St Petersburg, FL 33704

EXTERIOR PAINTED IN MARCH! Stunning!! - Situated on over half an acre in the heart of Snell Isle, this one-of-a-kind residence is centered over three expansive lots abutting the Vinoy Golf Course. WOW. Read that again. This massive estate features a 4700 sqft main residence, and a 540 sqft detached guest house, providing ample space for you and all of your guests. Out front you will notice the beautiful brick streets of Rafael Blvd lead you to a large circular driveway and a three-car garage. Entering the main house, your eyes will instantly be drawn to all of the breathtaking renovations completed over the last two years, and visions of you entertaining in this open concept space will begin to flow. The show-stopping chef's kitchen (completed in 2019) has not only a fabulous design with the 9 foot island, quartz countertops, custom cabinetry and undermount lighting. It also is extremely functional, featuring high-end appliances including the Wolf 8-burner natural gas range and double oven with a recessed vent, Subzero refrigerator and two Subzero refrigerator drawers, Subzero ice maker, Wolf drawer microwave, Miele dishwasher, and Miele built-in coffee/cappuccino maker. The beautiful ceramic tile floor draws you to the massive dining area, that is still open to the entire house. Sit by the natural gas fireplace and soak in the gorgeous tilework, custom built-ins with live edge wood tops, and a fabulous dry bar. Or mosey into the living room that is large enough to seat as many guests as you want and still fit a pool table. Four sets of Pella sliding glass doors give you views of and access to the massive backyard. On display is a saltwater pool surrounded by paver deck, mature landscaping, and ample amounts of green space beyond the pool and on both sides of the house. The detached guest house is one of the most distinguishing features of the home, and comes with a private entrance, its own living room, full kitchen and bath, and separate bedroom with french doors opening up to the back yard - a perfect option for visitors, in-laws, a nanny... you name it. Back inside the main house, the master wing on the main level is completely separated from the rest of the home. A foyer leads you into the master's den (that is being used as an office), and french doors open into the grand master bedroom (also with access to and phenomenal views of the pool and backyard). The master wing also features a large walk-in closet and a spectacular master bathroom renovated in 2020, with floor-to-ceiling quartz slabs in the massive shower and three shower heads. Dual sinks, a separate makeup vanity, and a water closet with bidet complete the stunning transformation. Across the house on the upper level are four additional bedrooms (one of which is being used as a theater room) and three full bathrooms. This house is truly not lacking in anything. At less than three miles to the bustling downtown, and literal steps away from the Vinoy Golf Course, saying the location is "highly desired" is a total understatement. Add this home to your "must see" list!
