Placido Bayou is a gated, garden-style residential community in Saint Petersburg built in 1989, primarily composed of two-story low-rise buildings that mix one- and two-bedroom condominium floorplans. Units typically feature open layouts with combined living/dining areas, eat-in kitchens or kitchen/family-room combinations, split-bedroom plans, crown molding, ceiling fans, stone counters, walk-in closets and window treatments. Many homes include private screened or enclosed lanais/balconies and private stairwell or entrance access for upstairs units. Exterior elements emphasize a park-like setting with walking paths, ponds and mature landscaping; property-wide systems include irrigation, lighting, rain gutters and hurricane shutters. Shared amenities are oriented toward relaxed, active Florida living and include keyed community pools and spas, a salt-water pool with hot tub, tennis courts, sidewalks and scenic lakes with abundant wildlife. Parking is primarily surface/assigned spaces with guest parking available; the association maintains grounds, exterior repairs, roofing and pest control on a regular schedule. The neighborhood sits minutes from downtown St. Petersburg, I-275, Tampa and Gulf beaches, offering a suburban-but-close-to-urban lifestyle with gated-community security and relatively low-maintenance ownership.
