Harshaw 1st Add, recorded as Harshaw's 1st Addition, is a small historic platted addition within the broader Harshaw area of northwest St. Petersburg (ZIP 33713), Pinellas County. The Harshaw area is described as a quiet residential neighborhood of mid-century homes on tree-lined streets, organized around Harshaw Lake and its park (neighborhoods.com and Nextdoor neighborhood profiles, 2026). The exact platting era and boundaries should be confirmed against the recorded plat and the parcel record.
Most homes here are single-story mid-century designs, often solid-block construction on modest lots. Because the housing stock is decades old, condition and updates vary widely from home to home, so each property should be judged on its own roof, systems, and finishes rather than an area average.
The Harshaw area centers on Harshaw Lake and its park, which add green space on some streets, and the broader Harshaw area also includes Harshaw Lake Park, a separate age-restricted complex, so confirm exactly which addition and which product a specific listing refers to.
The pitch is an established inland St. Petersburg location at an established-home entry point, with a shorter drive to downtown and the beaches than the outer suburbs. The work is reading condition on a decades-old home and verifying the flood zone, insurance, and any covenant for the exact parcel before you fall for a price.
