Welcome to the esteemed Glen Echo Lake Home, a captivating example of Mid-Century Modern architecture nestled in the heart of St. Pete's rich history. Originally envisioned and crafted by the renowned artist Philip Jenkins and his wife Jean in the late 1950s, this residence stands as a testament to their creative vision. In the early 1960s, the property found new stewardship under the McCarthy Family, distinguished members of the St. Pete community who were known for their popular restaurant at the Carlton Towers in downtown St Pete. Infusing the home with their distinctive flair, they embarked on a transformation that resulted in its iconic Jungle Themed Atomic Retro aesthetic—a true reflection of their creative vision. The McCarthy Family have now decided to list this amazing piece of St Pete history. 5034 28th Ave is remarkable from its Pink Terrazzo Floors to its Beautiful Natural Foliage. This residence not only enjoys a prime location with convenient access to both downtown and the beach but also sprawls across an impressive 1.76 acres. NOT IN A FLOOD ZONE The property's private spring-fed lake is a massive added bonus! There is nearly 470 feet of lake frontage, offering serene vistas and endless possibilities. With ample space behind the home, there's potential for further expansion and development, making it an exciting opportunity for more creative vision.
