492 SANTA CRUZ PLACE NE E

Placido Bayou is one of St. Petersburg's most desirable gated communities, and units here rarely hit the market. This second-floor, 1-bed/1-bath condo offers 710 square feet of well-maintained living space with vaulted ceilings, an open layout, and a walk-in closet in the bedroom. New flooring runs throughout the entire unit. The oversized screened-in porch is the centerpiece of this unit. Surrounded by mature tree canopy on all sides, it has the feel of a private treehouse. Morning coffee, evening drinks, or just unwinding in total quiet. You'll use this space every day. Hurricane-impact windows and sliding glass door are already in place. A new washer and dryer were installed in the unit in 2024. The community completed full roof replacements and repainted all buildings in 2024 as well, so major capital improvements are behind you. The HOA includes 24/7 manned gated security, pool access, water, garbage, flood insurance, and all exterior building and grounds maintenance. Placido Bayou is known for its scenic lakes, tree-lined walking and biking paths, and meticulously maintained grounds throughout. Minutes from Whole Foods and roughly 10 minutes to downtown St. Pete and the Pier. Gulf beaches, Tampa, and Clearwater are all within about 20 minutes. A private, secure community with easy access to everything St. Petersburg has to offer. Schedule your private showing today.
