5600 LEE STREET NE

Welcome to worry-free living in this beautiful high-and-dry elevated home tucked right next to peaceful Puryear Park. Built on solid block concrete pilings, this charming stilt home stood strong and untouched during the 2024 hurricane season, giving you the peace of mind you deserve. From nearly every window, balcony, and patio, you’re greeted with tranquil park views that make it feel like your own private retreat.
Step inside and you’ll find an open, airy layout with three bedrooms and two bathrooms, including a spacious primary suite with his-and-hers closets and a private ensuite bath. The heart of the home is perfect for entertaining or simply enjoying the everyday, with a cozy wood-burning fireplace, a bright kitchen with a breakfast bar that seats three, and energy-efficient double-pane tilt-sash windows and new glass doors with built-in blinds to bring the outside in.
Downstairs, the first-floor patio truly sets the tone for relaxed outdoor living. The current owners have turned it into a full-blown outdoor lounge complete with comfy couches, a TV, fire pit, beer fridge, and grill—all on gleaming epoxy floors and pavers that make it hard to leave. When the Florida sun heats up, cool off with friends in the custom Stock Tank pool built to comfortably fit 6 to 8 people.
If staying active is your vibe, you’ll love having the Blueway kayak trail just 200 feet from your back door, and tennis and Jai Alai courts right out front. A quick golf cart ride will get you to Mangrove Bay Golf Course in just four minutes, and the nearby Speer YMCA offers a gorgeous outdoor competition pool and a fitness center loaded with the latest gear. Families will appreciate being just two minutes from the new Mangrove Bay Middle School, and when you're ready for a night out or some beach time, downtown St. Pete, I-275, Tampa International, and the Gulf Beaches are all just minutes away.
With room to park up to eight vehicles in the carport and laundry conveniently located just off the kitchen, this home combines laid-back comfort with practical perks. Whether you're kicking back on the patio or paddling down the Blueway, life here feels easy—and that’s exactly how it should be.
