A Masterful Master Suite Addition and Backyard Makeover in St. Pete Beach

Native New Yorkers Steve and Stacie found a beachfront vacation home in St. Pete Beach that falls within their budget but needed some serious TLC. They wanted a home near St. Pete Beach with plenty of outdoor space, a master suite, and a spacious garage for Steve’s motorcycle projects. Angelides Builders had the honor of taking part in the project and leading the renovation for this episode of Beachfront Bargain Hunt: Renovation.

Chain link fencing and uneven ground made the old backyard anything but inviting. Steve and Stacie increased their budget to allow for exterior renovations and an outdoor hangout spot. After leveling out the backyard, new pavers were laid to create two patio areas off the garage and the kitchen. This seating area off the kitchen is the perfect spot for happy hour drinks before dinner under the stars.

With two small bedrooms on the first floor, Steve and Stacie realized they would need to build up if they wanted their ideal master suite. With plans in place to build the garage, it made sense to start from scratch with a second floor master suite and balcony above it.

Rebuilt from the ground up, the new garage has a warm, terra cotta-colored floor and bright white, water-resistant paint over the cinderblock walls. By thinking creatively and building from scratch on top of the new garage, Angelides Builders was able to build a dream bedroom, bathroom and massive walk-in closet. Porcelain tile gives the bedroom a luxurious feel while keeping cleanup from a day at the beach hassle-free.
