Commanding a premier position on Tierra Verde's Grand Canal, 501 Barcelona Drive is a trophy residence for those who demand architectural excellence, privacy, and an exceptional waterfront lifestyle. This nearly new custom build, completed in 2024, was designed by Mandy Vallowe with a visionary use of form and texture—evoking a rare fusion of sophistication and serenity.
Designed for how you truly want to live, world-class entertaining and elevated day-to-day living unfold seamlessly across one impeccably built level. Interior spaces flow into luxurious outdoor living, complete with a deluxe outdoor kitchen and a disappearing-edge waterfall pool framed by a true boater's paradise.
Built by Crescent Homes—an award-winning firm with over 5,000 residences completed—the home was engineered with a commercial mindset, featuring all-block construction, cast-in-place concrete beams, commercial ES-rated windows, and 159 deep pilings beneath the home and pool.
Heated saltwater infinity-edge pool with disappearing waterfall, auto-cleaning system, exterior lighting, and outside bath access—all on the same elevation as the home.

In coastal Florida, homes built above base flood elevation almost always mean a flight of stairs between the main living areas and the outdoor spaces. Not here. At 501 Barcelona, the lot is built up so that every square foot of living—indoors and out—sits on one level. Two banks of commercial-grade ES sliding glass walls frame wide openings to the covered lanai, and the outdoor kitchen sits just steps from the indoor kitchen.
Now picture a Saturday evening: guests drift between the great room and the covered lanai, drinks in hand, while you work the outdoor grill and plate a course inside—never climbing a single stair. That effortless flow isn't just a design detail. It's daily life at 501 Barcelona, and it's the rarest thing in elevated coastal construction: a home where indoor-outdoor living isn't a marketing phrase. It's the way you actually live.
One level. No stairs. No compromise.
Comprising a chain of small islands south of St. Petersburg along the Pinellas Bayway, Tierra Verde is one of Florida's most exclusive waterfront communities. Lush tropical landscaping, wide canals built by the Army Corps of Engineers to accommodate yachts of nearly any size, and a tight-knit island atmosphere make this a rare enclave for those who value privacy, nature, and effortless access to the Gulf of Mexico.
Tierra Verde's Grand Canal is the Gulf Coast's premier boating water—engineered with extra width and depth to dock yachts of almost any size. From your private dock and lift at 501 Barcelona, access Tampa Bay, the Intracoastal Waterway, and the open Gulf in minutes.
Just moments away, Fort De Soto Park spans 1,136 acres across five interconnected islands. Award-winning beaches, kayak and canoe trails, a historic fort, world-class fishing piers, and ferry service to undeveloped Egmont Key and Shell Key for snorkeling and wildlife.
For an island community, the dining scene is remarkable. Seaworthy Fish & Bar—named one of the five best restaurants in Tampa Bay—anchors a lineup that includes Tony & Nello's Italian, Alsace French Bistro, Billy's Stone Crab, Island Grille & Raw Bar, the rooftop views at Vista at the Top, Philadeli, and Smuggler's Bar. Pick up fresh produce at DeRusso's fruit and vegetable stand. All without leaving the island.
Some of Florida's most beautiful coastline is right at your doorstep. Historic Pass-a-Grille—one of the last unspoiled beach towns on the Gulf—is minutes away, along with the iconic Don CeSar and miles of sugar-white sand stretching along St. Pete Beach. For something wilder, Fort De Soto's pristine shores offer an untouched barrier-island escape.
Just across the Bayway, downtown St. Petersburg offers the Dalí Museum, Chihuly Collection, a thriving arts district, and one of Florida's most vibrant waterfront cities. World-class dining, galleries, and nightlife—all within a 15-minute drive from your front door.
With only one road in and out via the Pinellas Bayway, Tierra Verde offers a level of privacy and exclusivity rare in Florida—yet downtown St. Petersburg's vibrant waterfront is just a 15-minute drive across the bay. This is a community where neighbors know one another, and the pace of life is set by the tides, not the traffic.
