Peaceful living in the heart of St. Pete
Hidden in plain sight in the heart of St. Petersburg, Live Oak offers residents a serene, tree-lined experience characteristic of the city's charm. “It’s a great location,” says local Realtor Aaron Hunt of Avalon Group Realty, who has worked in the area for over ten years. “You’re ten minutes from downtown, ten minutes from the beach, and there are shops and restaurants in every direction. The neighborhood itself is quiet and cozy, but it’s easy to get to so many great places.”
Charming Live Oak homes in a leafy neighborhood
The neighborhood blends historic and contemporary housing styles, where early-20th-century bungalows stand alongside more recently built Mediterranean-style homes. These residences often feature well-manicured lawns and gardens, reflecting the area’s lush natural environment, and many residents have boats either in their driveways or in a berth at one of the many local marinas. Home prices in the neighborhood range from $350,000 for a 1,100-square-foot bungalow up to over $800,000 for a more spacious modern build with around 3,000 square feet of interior space.
