Roche Bobois Residences St Petersburg
Homes for Sale in Florida

Roche Bobois Residences is a pre-construction 29-story, 165-unit for-sale luxury condominium tower planned for 344 4th Street South at 4th Street South and 4th Avenue South in downtown St. Petersburg, developed by Clearwater-based Valor Capital in partnership with the French furniture house Roche Bobois, with architecture by Gomez Vazquez International and interiors by Niz + Chauvet. Coverage describes it as the first Roche Bobois-branded residential building in the United States. The city approved the 29-story plan in August 2025, demolition on the site began in early 2026, and completion is targeted around 2028 in sales materials.

The plan runs from roughly 431 sq ft studios to three-bedroom residences and two-story penthouses over a 20,000-plus sq ft amenity level: a glass-edge saltwater pool with cantilevered spa, a spa with sauna and aquatic therapy, a fitness studio, owner's and fireside lounges, 24/7 concierge, a pet park and salon, EV charging, and a ground floor with 4,103 sq ft of restaurant and retail plus a public arts plaza. Broker-published pre-construction pricing from February 2026 started around $544,500 for studios, rising to $1.5 million-plus for three-bedrooms and a reported $13.2 million penthouse contract; all pricing is subject to change and should be confirmed with the developer.

Because this is pre-construction, buyers are choosing a line, a floor, and a contract rather than comparing resales. The monthly condominium fee is unpublished, the deposit schedule is staged through construction, and Florida's condominium statute gives new-unit buyers a 15-day cancellation window after receiving the condominium documents, so the diligence is contractual as much as architectural.

Roche Bobois Residences is a pre-construction 29-story, 165-unit for-sale luxury condominium tower planned for 344 4th Street South at the northeast corner of 4th Street South and 4th Avenue South in downtown St. Petersburg. The developer is Clearwater-based Valor Capital, working with the Paris furniture house Roche Bobois, and coverage describes it as the first Roche Bobois-branded residential building in the United States. Gomez Vazquez International is the architect, with interiors by Niz + Chauvet and Roche Bobois furnishings curated for the residences. The plan runs from roughly 431 sq ft studios through one-, two-, and three-bedroom residences to two-story penthouses, per early-2026 sales materials.

Because this is pre-construction, there is no resale history and no finished building to tour; the decision is the line, the floor, the view direction, and the contract terms. Broker-published pre-construction pricing from February 2026 started around $544,500 for studios, with one-bedrooms from about $844,500, two-bedrooms from about $1,108,500, and three-bedrooms from about $1,545,500; all of it is subject to change, so confirm current pricing directly with the developer's sales team. A reported 4,840 sq ft two-story penthouse went under contract in February 2026 at $13.2 million, which St. Pete Rising reported would set a Tampa Bay condominium pre-sale record if it closes.

Living Here — The building is planned around a 20,000-plus sq ft amenity program: a glass-edge heated saltwater pool with a swim lane and cantilevered spa, poolside cabanas with summer kitchens, a spa with sauna and aquatic therapy, a fitness studio, an owner's lounge and fireside lounge, a pet park and pet salon, 24/7 concierge, EV charging, cold storage, and an on-site restaurant and cafe at the base, alongside 4,103 sq ft of ground-floor retail and a roughly 5,000 sq ft public arts plaza.

The location is the working south edge of downtown rather than the Beach Drive waterfront: two blocks from the Publix-anchored University Village plaza, blocks from the USF St. Petersburg campus, Johns Hopkins All Children's Hospital, and the Bayboro Harbor marine district, about 0.4 miles from the Dali Museum, and about 0.8 miles from the 86-acre Tropicana Field / Historic Gas Plant District site, where the city selected an approximately $8.1 billion redevelopment proposal in July 2026.

Before You Offer — Verify the status first. The tower was approved by the city in August 2025, demolition of the prior 1920s-era apartment buildings on the site began in early 2026, and construction is expected to begin in 2026 with completion targeted around 2028 in sales materials, though some coverage cites 2029 occupancy. Nothing is vertical yet, so get the current construction and delivery timeline in writing.

Read the contract mechanics. Sales materials published a deposit schedule of 10 percent at contract, 10 percent at 120 days, 10 percent at groundbreaking, 10 percent at one year, 10 percent at top-off, and 50 percent at closing; confirm the current schedule, how deposits are escrowed, and whether the contract permits deposits above 10 percent to be used for construction, which Florida law allows when disclosed. Florida's condominium statute also gives buyers of a new unit from a developer a 15-day cancellation window after signing and receiving the condominium documents, and a reservation deposit is generally refundable until it converts to a purchase contract; review the specifics with your own agent and attorney.

Confirm the carrying cost and the parking. The monthly condominium fee has not been published, and it will carry a full-service amenity level, concierge staffing, and building insurance, so get the estimated operating budget from the condominium documents before you budget. The 2025 revised site plan listed 103 parking spaces for 165 units, and the developer later bought an adjacent parcel in part to expand parking, so confirm exactly what parking conveys with your residence.

Finally, pull the FEMA flood zone for the parcel, given the site sits several blocks from Bayboro Harbor, and weigh buying early against waiting: early contracts get line and floor choice and launch pricing, while waiting buys certainty on the timeline and the finished product.

Roche Bobois Residences vs. Comparable Downtown St. Pete Condo Towers — The peer set is downtown St. Pete's recent condo wave. Against The Nolen, the 23-story boutique tower that opened to residents and previously held Tampa Bay's new-construction pre-sale record at $1,494 per square foot, Roche Bobois trades a delivered building you can tour today for a designer brand, a larger amenity program, and pre-construction pricing on a building that will not deliver for years. Against 400 Central, Saltaire, Art House, and Reflection, all delivered or delivering with actual closings on record, Roche Bobois is the pre-construction entry: no resale history, but the earliest position in the building.

The honest shorthand: pick Roche Bobois Residences for the designer-branded product, the studio-to-penthouse price ladder that starts below most delivered downtown luxury towers, and early line-and-floor choice near the USF campus and the Gas Plant redevelopment; pick The Nolen, Saltaire, 400 Central, Art House, or Reflection if you want a finished downtown condo with a recorded closing history you can price against today.

Who It Fits Best — Roche Bobois Residences fits buyers who want a new designer-branded downtown St. Pete condo, are comfortable with a multi-year pre-construction timeline and a staged deposit schedule, and want to choose their line and floor before the building goes vertical, whether as a primary residence, a second home, or a long-hold on the south downtown corridor.

It is a weaker fit for buyers who need to move in within the next two to three years, anyone uncomfortable committing large staged deposits before completion, buyers who want a recorded resale history and a confirmed monthly fee before signing, or anyone who wants a direct Beach Drive waterfront address rather than the south downtown blocks.

Most pages on this tower are a broker splash page wrapped around the developer's renderings. This one is built from the city approvals, the local development record, and the live Stellar MLS feed on the delivered towers it competes with. No automated value estimates, no guesswork.

Confirm the current HOA dues, exactly what they cover, and any CDD bond or special assessment for a specific address before you offer.
