Live the Florida lifestyle in the highly sought-after Whispering Waters 55+ mid-century architecture community on 3 acres just steps to the waterfront parks and vibrant downtown St. Pete! This one-of-a-kind unit boasts a "National Award Winning" kitchen and every square foot of living space is well utilized and maximized throughout. In 2016, Strobel Design Build, a local design/builder since 1993, received a national award with the National Association of the Remodeling Industry (NARI) for the redesigned kitchen. The Strobel team relocated the kitchen which is now open to the living space with peninsula bar seating and added a second bedroom with sliders for private balcony access. The new kitchen was designed to maintain the mid-century feel of the building, all while incorporating a transitional design. It was important to the current owner to keep the unit light, bright and timeless so selections include white shaker style cabinets, period subway tile, a farmhouse sink, quartz countertops and white vintage appliances. Additional improvements include impact windows and sliders, tile flooring, carpet, and window treatments. An extension of your living space are three outdoor screened-in balconies, one on the east side to take in the sunrises and tropical park view, one on the north side that overlooks the shuffleboard courts for entertainment, and one on the west side equipped with additional storage and a full size washer and dryer. Coming and going is a breeze with the unit located in Building 5 on the second floor with easy access up one flight of stairs or by elevator. A rarity in 55+ community living is a one-car garage in a two-car shared garage space with extra storage for beach gear, seasonal items, bikes or water toys. Condo amenities include a pool, two shuffleboard courts, laundry room, community room for social gatherings and the HOA includes all utilities, cable and internet.
