The Catalyst’s weekly roundup of notable Pinellas County real estate news.
The sale of property formerly owned and occupied by Woody’s Waterfront restaurant on St. Pete Beach closed Jan. 12 for a sales price of $2.4 million.
Located at 7308 Sunset Way, the restaurant had been a staple on the beach for over 35 years.

The price was reduced to $3.85 million in August.
The 2,394 gross square-foot structure, situated on a 0.09-acre parcel of land, was built in 1945. The two vacant lots on either side of the restaurant comprise one with .024 acres and the other with .15 acres.
The property is zoned CG-2 (Commercial General) and can accommodate a variety of commercial uses, including retail establishments, restaurant or bar, entertainment venue or lodging. The prior owners’ parents purchased the three parcels in 1989 for $526,100.
The buyer, Turner Tenney, is a native of Indian Rocks Beach and is an esports gamer and a Twitch streamer and YouTuber under the name Tfue.
The property was listed and sold by Brad Kuskin with the GoCommercial Group at Compass.
