Welcome to 5044 Betty Street N, a beautifully updated modern home nestled near the end of street with no through traffic. Surrounded by mature trees and lush greenery, this property offers a cool, inviting atmosphere. Thoughtful updates throughout create a move-in-ready opportunity that blends style, comfort, and functionality. The home is outside of the flood zone and has no HOA, helping to keep insurance and ownership costs low. The property is in unincorporated Pinellas County, which allows adding ADUs and short-term rentals, providing flexible options for a new homeowner or experienced investor. From the covered front entry, you are welcomed into a bright foyer that doubles as a convenient mudroom and laundry area, complete with a pocket door to help minimize noise. Luxury vinyl plank flooring flows throughout the home, offering both durability and water resistance. The updated kitchen features granite countertops, stainless-steel appliances, shaker cabinets with soft-close doors, and a built-in breakfast bar that opens to the living room, creating an ideal space for everyday living and entertaining. The living room is centered around an electric fireplace with adjustable colors and heat settings, adding warmth and ambiance year-round. Sliding glass doors open to a spacious screened front porch, providing a comfortable outdoor retreat to enjoy the fresh air with a cold drink or hot cup of coffee. The home offers three bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The primary suite includes a walk-in closet with custom-built-in shelving that opens through to the private en-suite bathroom featuring marble tile and a glass-enclosed shower. The guest bathroom is conveniently located between the other two bedrooms and includes an upgraded vanity, marble tile finishes, and a tub with shower. The third bedroom has a built-in closet, abundant natural light, and sliding glass doors opening to the rear deck. This room is currently furnished as a home office but could also be a great game room or home gym. Outside, the fully fenced backyard provides privacy and plenty of room to enjoy the outdoors. A 20-foot-wide rear deck wraps half the home, and extends out to a detached workshop, creating an excellent setting for outdoor gatherings, projects, and hobbies. The spacious workshop includes a built-in desk and an attached storage closet for added convenience. The oversized driveway provides parking for four vehicles, plus additional space for a boat or RV.
