1060 PINELLAS BAYWAY S , Tierra Verde, FL 33715

The rarest combination of gorgeous, direct Gulf views and deep, protected boating water is available in this updated, single-level, fully furnished residence at Cove on the Gulf, a boutique complex on Tierra Verde’s Grand Canal. The unit includes a slip with a 10,000 lb lift, and its supreme placement offers immediate access to the Gulf, the Pass-a-Grille Channel, and the Intracoastal. Positioned toward the south end of the building, Unit 204 captures sweeping views across the canal to Shell Key Preserve and the Gulf of Mexico beyond.

Inside, a contemporary aesthetic and an open great-room floor plan create a light, easy interior that lets the water take center stage. The living area opens to a spacious balcony with glass railings that maximize the view — sunsets, dolphins, and the daily parade of boats become part of your daily routine. A wood-burning fireplace keeps you warm on the few cold winter nights, and hurricane protection is in place throughout. Elevator access and thoughtful interior updates make this your effortless home from day one. Cove on the Gulf is a boutique community of just sixteen residences, with a heated waterfront pool and spa, fishing pier, covered parking, and under-building storage for kayaks and paddleboards.

Tierra Verde is what makes a home like this so rare. The island offers a quiet, residential rhythm: walk to local restaurants, the Tierra Verde Marina, and the Island Grille, bike the trails to Fort De Soto’s 900+ acre park and the world-class beaches of St. Pete Beach. Yet downtown St. Petersburg is close at hand, with its museums, arts scene, waterfront parks, and renowned dining. It’s the rare address that delivers both the laid-back island life and immediate access to one of Florida’s most exciting cultural destinations, with Tampa International Airport an easy drive beyond. Homes like this – with direct Gulf views, deeded slip, single-level, fully furnished, in a sixteen-unit building — don’t surface often.
