240-242 MATEO WAY

Rare Income Property – Beautifully updated and furnished duplex in highly desirable Snell Isle by the Vinoy Golf Club — perfect to live in one side and rent the other! Built in 1952, each 2-bed, 2-bath unit offers hardwood floors, enclosed front & back porches, French doors, and kitchens opened to the den for extra light. Both have separate electric meters, inside laundry, gas ranges, and updated electric.

Because of the raised platform construction, water did not intrude the main housing area during the storms. Major updates include: retro-reflective concrete tile roof (2010, 25–30 years life remaining), all exterior windows replaced, quartzite counters, LED lighting, keyless locks, newer plumbing fixtures, and modern appliances. Recent upgrades (2018–2025) add even more peace of mind: brand-new HVAC systems (2022) with wireless Ecobee thermostats, exterior paint (2022), new programmable irrigation system (2022), full crawl-space damp/mold abatement with fans, rebuilt master shower with upgraded ventilation, new washer/dryer in one unit (2025), and professionally serviced gas tankless water heaters.

Additional features include dehumidifiers in both units with continuous drainage, repaired garage roof, permitted electrical panel replacements, and storm-ready improvements.

The property and patio are surrounded by lush, professionally maintained landscaping with mature royal palms, cypress, and Florida native plants—twice featured on the Native Plant Society Tour. Located blocks from scenic Coffee Pot Bayou, and just minutes to vibrant downtown St. Petersburg. This move-in-ready duplex blends vintage charm with modern comfort in one of the city’s most sought-after neighborhoods!
