**** THIS HOME STAYED BONE DRY DURING HURRICANE HELENE SURGE****
Welcome to The Cowboy Cactus Oasis—a modern twist on rustic charm and desert vibes, nestled in the heart of St. Petersburg, Florida. This 1920’s style Craftsman home, built in 2018, offers the best of both worlds with its timeless architecture and modern conveniences. As you approach, you’ll be greeted by a classic split-rail fence, while a sturdy 6-foot wood-grain PVC privacy fence encloses the sides and backyard, creating your own private desert retreat.

Relax on the front or rear porches, both outfitted with ceiling fans to keep you cool on those warm Florida evenings. Additional electrical outlets on each corner of the roof give you the freedom to light up your outdoor oasis. Built with comfort and security in mind, the home features a whole-house pest control system hidden behind the walls, ensuring peace of mind.

Step inside through the oversized front door to discover a wide-open floor plan with soaring 10-foot ceilings, beautiful hardwood floors, and plenty of windows allowing natural light to pour in. The spacious living room is designed with functionality in mind, offering in-floor outlets, wall outlets, and a cozy natural gas fireplace to keep the cowboy nights warm. At the heart of this open concept is the dining area, perfectly situated between the living room and a kitchen made for culinary adventures.

The kitchen is a chef’s dream, outfitted with 42-inch solid wood shaker-style cabinets with soft-close features, quartz countertops, and an oversized island complete with a farmhouse sink and sleek faucet. High-end Samsung stainless steel appliances, under-cabinet LED lighting, and an abundance of electrical outlets provide both style and practicality. The vented stainless exhaust hood completes this modern kitchen setup, all while keeping a subtle Western flair.

Your personal hideaway awaits in the oversized primary suite, complete with a luxurious ensuite bathroom featuring double vanities, a garden tub, an expansive frameless glass shower, and a large walk-in closet. Two additional bedrooms, one with its own walk-in closet, provide ample space for guests or family. The cheerful laundry room, with its bright windows, makes everyday chores a breeze.

The rear of the house is where the Cowboy Cactus Oasis truly shines. Step through the oversized glass-panel door to your own desert-style retreat. To the right, a 16×8 deck with a metal roof features an outdoor kitchen with a natural gas BBQ, storage cabinets, a sink with hot and cold water, and a small fridge for refreshments. To the left, a cozy covered porch is perfect for dining al fresco. A few steps down leads you to a paved patio with a 6-person hot tub nestled under a covered pergola, ideal for unwinding after a long day.

Around the side of the house, you’ll find another deck, complete with a fire pit and ample seating—perfect for gathering around the flames under the stars. There’s even an 8×6 garden shed to store all your landscaping tools, ready to keep your oasis thriving.
