What I love most about our Florida neighborhood is the old and diverse styles of the homes. St. Petersburg is a real mixed bag of homes. Towards the beaches there are gorgeous waterfront homes in more contemporary styles, but nearing downtown the homes are old and quaint and you can walk around for an hour and never see the same style repeated. I snapped these while taking a bike ride around our immediate neighborhood. It's not posh, but it is a charming area. My favorite is number 2- the little Spanish style home. Each month we have a neighborhood porch party and it is a great way to meet our neighbors and have a good look inside all the homes I admire on my walks.
I would love to live in #6 and transform it. I also love #2. The second from last photo looks like it could become a small bed and breakfast! The city should put you on retainer, my dear ... great public relations/real estate exposure! I'm hooked.
ReplyDeleteI love them all! I find the older neighborhoods in LA have the same eclectic feel and I find it just charming. I love the idea of your front porch get togethers. You live in two wonderful cities. Ann
ReplyDeleteGosh! There's posh as we might say over here. Honestly though, they all look so loved and immaculate.
ReplyDeleteThey are all so interesting and unique . . . I'd enjoy a bike ride or walk checking the houses out too. No track home look is there. I like the house in the second phoo. And the huge tree at the end . . . looks interesting!
