Description
Known locally as “The Cake House,” this timeless Mediterranean masterpiece is one of Old Northeast’s most iconic historic residences, a century-old architectural gem originally designed by the same architect behind Dunedin’s famed Fenway Hotel. Situated on a prized corner lot along picturesque Beach... Drive, the home blends Havana-inspired design and 1920s craftsmanship with thoughtful modern luxury updates throughout. Showcasing original interior and exterior brick, refinished hardwood floors, detailed millwork, and a distinctive pagoda-style roofline, the property radiates warmth, history, and sophistication. Inside, a light-filled tranquil sunroom opens to flexible dining and living areas pre-wired for audio/visual, ideal for entertaining. The main level includes a formal dining room, and a full butler’s pantry with bar functionality off the chef’s updated kitchen, featuring a movable island and period details that honor the home’s heritage. The enclosed laundry room includes a washer and dryer, with an adjacent mudroom and indoor tankless water heater. The luxurious primary suite is a sanctuary of elegance, complete with crown molding, a California closet system, dual vanities, and an oversized walk-in shower clad in Calacatta marble with opulent fixtures and abundant natural light. Guest accommodations are equally inviting, with spacious bedrooms, dual closets, and beautifully updated bathrooms that harmonize with the home’s character. Outdoor living is elevated with a private Mediterranean-style courtyard featuring a custom wood-fired kitchen, gazebo dining pavilion, and restored original deck pillars surrounded by lush new landscaping. Every detail invites relaxation and connection. Additional highlights include updated electrical and copper plumbing, brand-new under-home ductwork (2024), a newly installed CPVC water main to the street, and ongoing AC maintenance for peace of mind. The detached two-car garage accompanies a fully equipped 1-bedroom, 1-bath ADU with kitchen, washer/dryer, and private entry — perfect for guests, extended family, or income opportunity. Set on a 7,920 sq ft lot in one of St. Petersburg’s most celebrated neighborhoods, 1311 Beach Drive NE is a rare blend of architectural authenticity and modern livability. Every improvement has been permitted, curated, and meticulously maintained, offering a once-in-a-generation opportunity to own one of Old Northeast’s most beloved landmarks.
