Listed by Debbie McGinty, LLC• COASTAL PROPERTIES GROUP
Yacht Club Estates, located between Bayou Grande and Boca Ciega Bay, is a waterfront and residential St. Petersburg neighborhood with deep-water canals and mid-century ranch homes. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along 54th Avenue S near Bayway Isles, where palms, seawalls, and boat traffic set a marina-minded pace. Streets read as low-slung Florida modernism—block construction, broad carports, and screened lanais—paired with newer coastal rebuilds. A short drive links to the Deuces Live district for live sets at The Palladium Theater and gallery nights at the Morean Arts Center. Waterfront routines orbit Maximo Park’s boat ramps and mangrove edges, while Gulf breezes filter in from nearby beaches.
