6755 30th St S is an extraordinarily rare offering: a true waterfront estate set directly on the open waters of Tampa Bay. Spanning approximately 0.77 acres — an estate-caliber homesite rarely found in St. Petersburg — with over 166 feet of waterfront along the rear and additional exposure along the side, the property offers a scale, presence, and setting that few buyers will ever have the opportunity to acquire. Positioned at the end of a quiet street with water on two sides, it provides a level of privacy and separation that is exceptionally difficult to replicate, along with expansive views across Tampa Bay to the iconic Sunshine Skyway Bridge, a dynamic backdrop by day and brilliantly illuminated at night. A circular driveway anchored by a central fountain creates a striking sense of arrival, a setting that feels as though it is waiting for a collection of exceptional automobiles. Mature palms and artfully layered landscaping reinforce the estate's presence from the moment you enter the property. The residence encompasses over 5,800 square feet of living space, with five bedrooms, six baths, a dedicated 1st floor office, and a private elevator serving all levels — essential in a home of this scale. A complete gut renovation in 2003 filled the concrete block structure and fitted Pella Miami-Dade-rated windows and doors throughout — built like a fortress. Nearly every room is intentionally oriented toward the water, ensuring the home fully captures its exceptional setting. The kitchen reflects custom craftsmanship and scale, anchored by a 48-inch Dacor range and complemented by a Sub-Zero 632 side-by-side refrigerator and freezer with icemaker, built-in microwave, and pot filler. The kitchen's dinette looks out over the grounds and directly into Tampa Bay — it is the kind of setting that makes every day feel exceptional. Expansive openings throughout the home create a seamless connection between interior and exterior spaces, allowing gatherings to move effortlessly between the various gathering areas. Outdoor living unfolds across both upper and lower levels of the home. A large pool with spillover spa, outdoor kitchen, and multiple gathering areas create a natural extension of the interior spaces. Seating areas are thoughtfully positioned to take in the water, while the expansive lawn provides space for recreation, events, or additional outdoor living concepts. From the private dock, Tampa Bay becomes an extension of the property. Boating, kayaking, and fishing are all directly accessible, with frequent sightings of dolphins, manatees, and a remarkable variety of coastal birdlife. Under the head of the dock are numerous reef balls creating a natural nursery for sea life of all kinds. The experience is both active and serene, a rare balance on open water. What further distinguishes this property is its location along the southern edge of Pinellas County, offering a sense of separation and privacy rarely found at this level, while still providing direct access to I-275, downtown St. Petersburg, the Gulf beaches, and multiple airports. To create the ultimate private waterfront estate, the neighboring property at 6754 31st St S is also available, enabling the assembly of a waterfront compound with over 260 feet of direct Tampa Bay frontage. This is more than a home. It is a setting for an elevated waterfront lifestyle, defined by scale, presence, and a direct connection to Tampa Bay.

This is a rare opportunity to secure true open-water frontage at the southern tip of St. Petersburg, where wide, unobstructed views of Tampa Bay and the Sunshine Skyway Bridge come together to create an irreplaceable setting. This stretch of Tampa Bay offers a true open-water environment, with broad views, constant movement, and a direct connection to the surrounding ecosystem. Dolphins and manatees are frequently seen, and the shoreline supports a diverse mix of coastal birdlife, creating a setting that feels both active and serene. Positioned at the end of a quiet street, the property offers a level of privacy that is increasingly difficult to find, with approximately 100 feet of waterfront and a lot that lends itself equally well to a major renovation, new construction, or the creation of a massive estate through combination with the neighboring property. The existing home is both charming and particularly unique. The entryway features a hand-carved wooden pediment with a dual-peacock motif above the front door, reflecting the craftsmanship carried throughout the property. Inside, that same attention to detail continues. An exposed beam is proudly supported by phenomenal hand-carved corbels featuring classical faces, while an incredibly detailed, open-carved wooden transom bridges the upper walkway. Authentic Saltillo tile floors, a majestic heavy-timber newel post, and a custom sunburst-patterned wood railing on the primary suite’s private waterfront balcony give the home a distinctive architectural character rarely found today. While the 1983 home is a diamond in the rough, these bespoke elements, combined with the home’s spacious vaulted interiors, create a compelling foundation for a visionary renovation. A new owner can salvage, preserve, and elevate these irreplaceable artisan features, or choose to clear the site and build a brand-new architectural masterpiece to fully take advantage of this rare and beautiful location. The lot features a non-functional pool, and the dock is waiting for the new owner to rebuild and customize it to their needs, offering a true blank slate to design your ultimate outdoor waterfront lifestyle. OPPORTUNITY FOR A GRAND ESTATE: When combined with the neighboring property at 6755 30th St. S (MLS# TB8489791), this becomes the foundation for a one-of-a-kind, magnificent waterfront estate—a footprint and opportunity that is virtually impossible to replicate. Compared to properties further west in Pinellas Point, this location has some distinct advantages. Just moments away you have direct access to I-275 North and South, meaning that the vibrancy of downtown St. Petersburg is only minutes away. Likewise, you're just blocks away from the Pinellas Bayway, which connects you directly to Tierra Verde, Fort De Soto, and the Gulf beaches. Opportunities like this—a property that provides both supreme convenience and serene open-water living—are increasingly limited.
