Property Description
5004 12th Ave S offers executive-level comfort with true historic charm. This rare 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home also includes a versatile bonus room that can be easily converted into a third bedroom, home office, or creative space.
As you enter through the PVC picket fence and charming front porch, you're greeted by original, restored and stained hardwood floors, a true architectural treasure rarely preserved in today's homes. The open floor plan flows effortlessly, creating a sense of warmth and livability.
The home's marine lumber frame, impact windows and doors, and Hardie Board siding offer durability and peace of mind. The home sits in Flood Zone X, just 1.5 miles from Gulfport's vibrant Beach Blvd and a short walk to the Pinellas Trail—yet enjoys the security of being outside a flood-prone area. Enjoy:
* A bright, updated kitchen with quartz countertops, food pantry, and stainless steel appliances.
* A cozy Florida room, shaded and ideal for relaxing or entertaining.
* Permitted 6-person hot tub (2023) for year-round enjoyment.
* A chic vintage guest bathroom with original mid-century pink and gray tile—impeccably preserved and highly sought after.
* An ensuite bathroom with double sinks, updated fixtures, marble floors, tiles and backsplash
* A doublewide driveway that accommodates up to 4 cars.
Recent improvements include:
* New water line from house to street (2024)
* HVAC compressor (2020)
* 7-ft PVC privacy fence
* Termite tenting with transferable warranty (2024)
* Approved shed location in the backyard
* Roof (2017)
With a very reasonable homeowner insurance thanks to the multiple wind mitigation credits. This home is perfectly situated near Fusion 49th Street South, an urban revitalization corridor bringing walkability, a future Community Grocery Co-op, and increased local commerce—paralleling urban models in NYC and other major cities. You'll also love Gulfport's Tuesday Fresh Market, First Friday Art Walk, and GeckoFest, plus easy access to St. Pete Beach in just 10 minutes.
For buyers looking for lifestyle, convenience, and timeless design in a tight-knit community, this Gulfport gem checks all the boxes.
