Mid-Century Coastal Home Renewal in Snell Isle

Modern Lines, Coastal Living: A Snell Isle Renovation with Character

In the waterfront enclave of Snell Isle, St. Petersburg, FineCraft Contractors is executing a comprehensive renovation that highlights the home’s distinctive Mid-Century Modern coastal character. Designed in collaboration with a Tampa Bay-based architect, the renovation respects the original structure’s architectural intent—clean lines, broad overhangs, and indoor-outdoor harmony—while updating it for today’s standards of comfort, efficiency, and style.

From the street-facing elevation to the private rear façade, the design draws on hallmark Mid-Century elements: horizontal lines, large openings, open-concept interiors, and an honest material palette. The updated layout improves circulation and maximizes natural light, while maintaining the understated elegance that defines the genre.

What sets this project apart from our other Snell Isle renovations is its architectural preservation with modern adaptation. Rather than transforming the structure entirely, this home is being carefully renewed—keeping its identity while enhancing its livability for the Tampa Bay climate and waterfront lifestyle.
