Nancy Alexander, a well-known Tampa Bay media personality, has put her long-time residence in St. Petersburg on the market. The five-bedroom home, located at 1401 45th Avenue North in the Allendale neighborhood, stands out not only for its unique design but also for its vibrant history.
Alexander, who has called the home her sanctuary for decades, has transformed every empty space into a canvas for creativity. The house, originally built in 1951, underwent a significant renovation and expansion in 2002. Alexander worked closely with local artisans and craftspeople to add a new wing and second floor, ensuring that the house would reflect her personal style and vision.
The home’s entrance is a striking feature, with eight-foot double entry doors that welcome visitors. Inside, the main living space is filled with natural light, high ceilings, and bamboo flooring. A wall of glass doors leads to a screened pool and outdoor living area, creating a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor spaces. The kitchen, known for its artistic character, features custom tilework, cabinetry, and built-ins that continue the home’s unique aesthetic.
Alexander’s philosophy of using color to make people feel welcome is evident throughout the residence. Each room offers a new discovery, with custom tilework, built-ins, and distinctive lighting that add to the home’s sense of discovery. The first floor includes a den, while the five bedrooms offer flexibility for family, guests, or additional creative and work spaces.
Outside, mature landscaping and the Allendale neighborhood’s familiar tree canopy create a private setting. The home is conveniently located near downtown St. Petersburg, restaurants, parks, shopping, and the waterfront, making it an ideal choice for those seeking a vibrant urban lifestyle.
