Description

Rare opportunity to own a beautifully upgraded, contemporary Mediterranean townhouse in highly-desirable Marina Bay, a gated 60-acre tropical oasis nestled among Eckerd College, Bayview Isles and Tierra Verde along the shores of Boca Ciega Bay. Enter the neighborhood beneath a graceful canopy of live oaks that frame the approach of this stunning 2,334-square-foot, three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath home with dramatic 10-foot vaulted ceilings, an open floor plan and unparalleled water views out the front and rear of the property. Inventory in Marina Bay is limited, and the custom features, luxury finishes and exceptional quality details — including high-end appliances, superior porcelain wood tile flooring and crown molding throughout — distinguish this lovely property from the handful of remaining townhouses nearing completion. The gourmet chef’s kitchen is made for entertaining with its upgraded double-width ultra-premium Vermont Danby Marble kitchen island, natural gas Viking stove with exhaust hood, a built-in bar with Sub-Zero under-counter wine refrigerator, custom pendant lighting and a spacious pantry. The owner’s suite features custom walk-in California Closets and a spa-like bath with dual vanities, tiled walk-in shower, soaking tub and custom mirrors and lighting. The lanai has been tastefully upgraded with marble-tiled floors, a beadboard ceiling with recessed lighting, ceiling fan, crown molding, a remote-control exterior sunshade and seamless screens providing unobstructed water views. Additional upgrades include a newly-remodeled powder room, integrated surround-sound system, interior wooden louvered shutters on all windows, cornice window treatments on the sliders, a newly remodeled staircase with stainless steel balusters and a whole-house water softener system. All of the accommodations are on one level and served by a private elevator accessed from the nearly 2,300-square-foot garage that is finished with epoxy flooring, making it the perfect place for parking cars, a workshop, gym or game room. The garage also includes a large, enclosed storage room with shelving. Marina Bay was designed and built to FORTIFIED Gold standards, which is the highest level of standard and method given by the Insurance Institute for Business & Home Safety (IBHS). This superior resilient construction far exceeds building codes and features impact and pressure-rated windows, sliders, entry doors and garage doors. The engineered roof-to-wall connections, story-to-story connections and wall-to-foundation connections create a singular, solid structure that offers maximum protection. Marina Bay is the only development in Pinellas County with fortified-quality all-block construction and foam insulation for energy efficiency. The beauty of this extraordinary home is enhanced by lush tropical landscaping and the numerous lakes dotted throughout Marina Bay — a veritable nature preserve teeming with osprey, herons, egrets, ibis and ducks. Enjoy watching pelicans dive for fish and dolphins and manatees play in the waters of Boca Ciega Bay beside the community’s deep-water marina. Additional amenities include two pools, two spas, a fitness center, a community clubhouse, as well as a fishing pier adjacent to the docks. A pet-friendly community, Marina Bay is a mere 10 minutes from downtown St. Pete and a short bike ride along the protected bike paths of Pinellas Trail to Pass-a-Grille and St. Pete beaches.
