263 87TH AVENUE ST PETERSBURG FL 33702

Welcome to waterfront perfection in the best neighborhood in the world. This home truly checks all the boxes—so take a deep breath, enjoy the read, and when you're ready, schedule your private tour and experience it for yourself. The “wow” begins the moment you walk through the front door—your eyes lock on the water and it’s almost impossible not to keep walking straight to the backyard.

Set on an expansive lot of over 11,000 square feet—larger than most in the neighborhood—this stunning mid-century modern home blends timeless design with thoughtful, high-end updates. Inside, you’ll find three spacious bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a flexible bonus space ideal for a home office or guest room. A generously sized one-car garage provides ample storage, and with over 2,000 square feet of living space, there’s room to stretch out and settle in.

Gleaming terrazzo floors and vaulted ceilings create a sense of light and space throughout. The living area flows seamlessly to the outdoors through a full wall of sliding glass doors, allowing natural light to pour in while framing spectacular views of the water. Whether you're hosting a dinner party or enjoying a quiet morning coffee, the setting is nothing short of captivating.

The kitchen is exactly where you’ll want to be—modern, open, and perfectly positioned to capture views of Sun Lit Cove. The owner's suite offers a calm retreat, complete with an elegant ensuite bathroom and two closets—including a spacious walk-in.

Outside, the property transforms into a show-stopping waterfront experience. Lounge poolside under the covered lanai, rinse off in the outdoor shower after a dip, and enjoy the bounty of your private tropical landscape featuring mango, banana, and coconut trees. Dolphins and manatees are regular visitors to your backyard, making daily appearances. Two boat lifts are ready for action—including a 10,000 lb covered lift for your larger vessel and a 7,000 lb lift for quick trips on the water. A strong seawall stretches nearly 100 feet across the waterfront, and a 30-amp hookup at the dock supports your RV or large boat. There’s room on the property for trailers, toys, and gear—so bring it all.

And when the sun begins to set, you’ll be reaching for your phone—not to scroll, but to capture the view. Whether you’re posting to make your friends a little jealous or inviting them over to see it for themselves, the colors over the cove never disappoint.

And it gets even better—because you're not just buying a home, you're joining the Riviera Bay lifestyle. A neighborhood where community matters and every day brings something special: a community boat ramp, two beautiful parks, golf cart parades, a Christmas Eve boat parade, and American flags lining the streets every 4th of July. As the locals say, “It’s always a great day in Riviera Bay!”

All of this—just minutes from downtown St. Pete, Tampa, and local airports.
