About this home
Located in the heart of Historic Old Northeast, one of St. Petersburg’s most sought-after neighborhoods, this beautifully updated bungalow offers the character and charm of a classic St. Pete home with the added versatility of a detached two-story guest apartment. The main residence features 3 bedrooms and 1.5 baths, with original hardwood floors, high ceilings and a gas fireplace preserving the warmth and architectural character of the home while thoughtful updates provide the comforts of modern living. An inviting living area flows into a spacious dining room and efficient kitchen, while recently updated windows, a tankless water heater and ample storage add everyday convenience. Just beyond the main house, the detached two-story apartment creates an exceptional second living space with its own kitchen and living area downstairs and a private bedroom and full bath upstairs. Ideal for visiting family and friends or significant potential rental income. And the setting is what truly distinguishes this home. Historic Old Northeast is known for its tree-lined streets, brick roads, distinctive architecture and remarkable proximity to St. Petersburg’s waterfront and downtown. From 940 Locust, the waterfront parks and trails along Tampa Bay are just blocks away, while Beach Drive, the Vinoy, St. Pete Pier and the heart of Downtown St. Petersburg are all close at hand. Spend mornings walking or biking along the waterfront, afternoons exploring museums, galleries and local shops, and evenings enjoying the restaurants, cafés and entertainment that have made Downtown St. Pete one of Florida’s most vibrant urban destinations. 940 Locust Dr. NE offers something increasingly difficult to duplicate: the charm and sense of place of an established historic neighborhood, a versatile main house and guest apartment, and the ability to enjoy the very best of St. Petersburg just beyond your front door.
