Welcome to 1309 45th St S, an updated 1950s block home full of charm in a peaceful, sunny neighborhood shaded by mature trees. This 3-bedroom, 1-bath home has been thoughtfully renovated with real-life functionality in mind. Built-in storage, large new windows, and smart design touches make everyday living easy. The backyard feels like a retreat, featuring a pergola complete with Adirondack chairs, a hammock, and vintage Edison string lights setting the mood. Just a 30-second walk away are some of the nicest pickleball and tennis courts in St. Pete, this is a place where you’ll find your community on day one. Perfectly located near Downtown Gulfport and Gulfport Beach (2 miles), Clam Bayou Nature Park (1.3 miles), the Grand Central district (2.6 miles), Downtown St. Pete (3.6 miles), and the beach (5 miles) – yet tucked into a quiet residential street. Not in a flood zone, so no flood insurance required. Currently tenant-occupied and cash-flowing. This home works beautifully as a turnkey rental at this price point, or a lovely place to settle in with your family. Located just 3 blocks from the 49th Street South Redevelopment Project, a major public-private initiative focused on new housing, green space, and enhanced community connection between Gulfport and St. Pete. This type of investment is expected to bring positive improvements to the surrounding neighborhood over time. Please do not disturb the tenant. Showings (or pickleball matches) can be scheduled directly with the owner/realtor. 24-hour notice required.
