Wake up to the shimmer of sunlight on water. Step outside with your morning coffee and watch dolphins arc through the canal behind your home. By afternoon, you are on your boat launched from your own private lift and seven minutes later, you are in open Tampa Bay. This is not a weekend getaway. This is your life at 2001 Hawaii Ave NE, a fully furnished waterfront residence on one of St. Petersburg's most coveted canal front streets in the Venetian Isles neighborhood. Your Private Waterfront: The centerpiece of this property is 100 feet of direct waterfront with a 2015 built reinforced sea wall, a private deep water dock, and a powered boat lift ready for immediate use. The deep water canal provides quick, unobstructed access to Tampa Bay no bridges, no locks, no idle zones. You are on open water in minutes, not the half hour plus transit that landlocked marinas require. Whether you sail, fish, cruise, or simply want to watch the sunset from your dock with a glass of wine, this is the waterfront lifestyle that people move to St. Petersburg to find. A lower tier launch makes it effortless to get kayaks, paddleboards, and water toys on the water without the dock and a waterfront sitting bench is where most mornings and evenings will end. The Residence: Four bedrooms. Three full bathrooms. 2,256 square feet of thoughtfully furnished, move in ready living space maintained and upgraded to a standard that matches its waterfront setting. The open concept kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a breakfast bar framing spectacular water views through floor to ceiling glass. The living room offers surround sound, updated marble flooring, and sliding doors that open directly to the screened pool area built for movie nights that end with a swim. The primary suite occupies the southwest corner with sweeping water views, a walk in closet, and a spa caliber bathroom: granite vanity with his and her vessel sinks, a frameless glass shower, and a jacuzzi tub. Step directly from the suite onto the pool patio and take in the panoramic waterfront. The formal dining room frames the pool and canal through glass sliders the kind of view that makes every dinner feel like an event. Turnkey, No Compromises This home has been upgraded with intention: 2015 sea wall, 2008 tile roof, 2016 HVAC system, 2015 pool enclosure, fresh exterior paint, brick paver circular driveway, and lush professional landscaping. Bring your clothes, your boat, and your life. Everything else is here. Lawn care and pool maintenance are included your weekends belong to you. The Location: Venetian Isles is a quiet, established residential enclave of homeowners with direct bay access not a tourist corridor. Yet you are minutes from everything that makes St. Petersburg one of the most desirable cities in Florida: downtown's restaurants and galleries, the Vinoy, St. Pete Beach, Tampa International Airport (35 min), and the headquarters of Raymond James, JPMorgan Chase, and other major employers anchoring the region's professional economy. The boat and boat lift are an optional addition for an additional $750 per month
