WELCOME TO CASA BAJA — where the desert meets the tropics! Located in the tranquil Bonita Bayou/Bayou Highlands neighborhood of St. Petersburg, this beautifully updated and meticulously maintained home is a rare offering blending Baja-inspired desert design with lush tropical living. From the moment you arrive, you’ll notice the elegant travertine tile walkway and large paver steps leading through thoughtfully curated landscaping inspired by the owner’s travels to Baja California. The striking front yard features cacti, agaves, succulents, pebble rocks, Zion boulders, and mature palm trees, creating an unforgettable first impression. A tastefully tiled front porch invites you to enjoy your morning coffee while adoring the front garden and listening to the custom rock water fountain. Step through the hand-carved wooden entry door into a warm interior where Southwestern charm meets modern comfort. Porcelain tile flooring flows throughout, creating a clean, cohesive look. This fully furnished residence is truly move-in ready — literally just bring your clothes and toothbrush! Elevating its turn-key value, the sale includes all the linens, towels, plates, utensils, and cookware. The updated kitchen features solid wood cabinetry, quartz countertops, a composite granite sink, a garbage disposal, Kohler faucet, and Samsung stainless steel appliances. Additional included appliances such as a dual-brew coffee maker, microwave, air fry toaster oven, and electric tea pot add incredible day-one convenience. The dining area showcases a stylish MCM-inspired glass-top table, while the living room and bedrooms feature room-darkening draperies paired with sheer curtains. Both bedrooms include memory foam mattresses, wood bed frames, matching nightstands, and tall dressers inside the closets. The primary bedroom includes a cozy settee, while the guest bedroom offers a dedicated workspace with a wood desk. The elegantly renovated bathroom is tiled floor-to-ceiling and features updated fixtures including a rain shower head. A versatile study/den leading to the garage provides additional workspace with hurricane-impact French doors opening to the private backyard retreat. The attractively paved outdoor living area includes a fire pit, adjustable lounge chairs, and an outdoor dining set surrounded by lush tropical landscaping, flowering plants, and mature palms. The fully fenced backyard with a matching sliding gate offers exceptional privacy. The rear-access 1-car garage is accessible from the alley through a pergola-framed carport and includes a new garage door opener, washer, dryer, utility sink, additional toilet, and abundant storage space. Major updates include a brand-new HVAC blower motor (2026), brand new irrigation well pump (2026), new commercial-grade water heater (2025), and a new roof (2022). A 2-year home warranty is also included with the sale! Lovingly cared for over the past 20 years, Casa Baja reflects exceptional pride of ownership. Opportunities to own here are rare, as many residents have called this charming neighborhood home for decades. Situated on an elevated, non-flood zone lot in a quiet area, you’ll enjoy an unbeatable, active lifestyle. You are within easy walking distance to the Bayou Highlands neighborhood park and the scenic Boyd Hill Nature Preserve, in addition to being moments from local favorites including Kahwa Coffee, Southside Coffee, Mullet’s Fish Camp, and Tchotchke.
