   This neighborhood never gets old. Every block has something different going on with the porches, the colors, the original woodwork. People really take pride in these homes.

   Kenwood and Old Northeast have that same energy where you can just walk for hours and keep finding details you missed the last time.

   We spent almost two years restoring ours and the whole time our neighbors were out front cheering us on. That sense of community is real and it is part of what makes this neighborhood so special.

   The oak canopy over those streets is what gets me every time. You lose one of those big trees to a renovation project and the whole block changes.

   The way the morning light hits the front porches through the oak trees is honestly some of the best natural framing in the whole city.

   Every wall tells a story.

   What the homeowners there have done over the past twenty years is nothing short of remarkable.

   Termites are no joke in these old houses though. Anyone else dealing with them? Currently on round two of treatment and still finding damage in the original sill plates.

   Took my boys on a bike ride through Kenwood last weekend just to show them what old St. Pete looks like. They wanted to know why our house does not have a big porch like those. Fair question kids.

    Just moved to St. Pete a few months ago and walking through Kenwood was genuinely one of my first wow moments here. Nothing like it back in Columbus.
