One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Positioned on Tierra Verde's main channel with 85 feet of deep-water frontage, 155 1st Street West is a prime redevelopment opportunity, whether as a ground-up bespoke estate or a thoroughly reimagined residence. Sailboat-depth water runs along the main channel, providing the foundation for a private dock capable of accommodating large vessels, while views across the channel reach toward Isla del Sol and the Don CeSar, a Gulf Coast landmark since 1928. The elevated home experienced no flooding during Milton, though storm damage allowed water intrusion inside. The interior has since been professionally remediated and the roof completely repaired, leaving the new owner with a structurally sound canvas on a supreme waterfront lot — and the opportunity to select finishes and complete a custom residence at a fraction of the cost of new construction. The parcel's 85-by-150-foot footprint provides the depth to accommodate a substantial home without sacrificing outdoor living space. Situated deep within the no-wake zone, the property offers the rare combination of calm, protected water at the dock and wide open-water views across the channel. Northern exposure delivers natural light across the water throughout the day. Tierra Verde sits at the mouth of Tampa Bay, where protected bay waters open to the Gulf within minutes. The channel fronting this property connects directly to Egmont Key, the Sunshine Skyway anchorage, St. Petersburg's waterfront, and open Gulf waters beyond. Fort De Soto Park, encompassing 1,136 acres across five islands and consistently ranked among the country's finest beach parks, is minutes away by water or road. Pass-A-Grille and St. Pete Beach extend northward along the Gulf, offering additional access to the coastline that has defined Florida's west coast for generations. Downtown St. Petersburg, with its restaurants, galleries, the Dalí Museum, and the Mahaffey Theater, is a short drive north via the Pinellas Bayway. Both Tampa International and St. Pete/Clearwater Airports are easily reached via I-275. At 155 1st Street West, the scene is set. What rises from it is entirely yours to determine.

Great opportunity to build, as this area has an approx. elevation estimated at 9'. Surrounding homes did not flood in the storms of 2024. Owners plan was to grade up to 12' elevation, as currently required by the City of St Pete, and have a one story home on this lot (similar home built nearby). This is an opportunity to keep a boat very closeby, as the High and Dry boat storage is just steps away; so easy to head out on the water! Also walkable is the restaurant Island Grille; just around the corner. This is a unique opportunity to live in a beautiful, highly desirable waterfront community without paying for direct waterfront, and just a short drive from more restaurants in downtown Tierra Verde as well an the renown Ft Desoto Park! Also close by is the infamous Don Cesar Resort Hotel, and all that St Pete Beach has to offer. Tierra Verde is a great community in a wonderful, convenient location with very easy access to the interstate. Listing agent is owner and had planned to build her dream home there with fiancé; unfortunately he has health problems so they can no longer build.
