Property Description
Built in 1910, this stunning home offers over 3300 SqFt of timeless character and charm! Originally constructed on S Florida avenue, this home was later relocated to its current setting—directly across from a picturesque park in the heart of historic Dixieland, surrounded by quaint brick-paved streets. Nestled on a beautiful .40 acres, the property offers ample space for entertaining, gardening, and more – a rare find in the heart of downtown! PAID OFF SOLAR PANELS help lower electricity bills, a great addition to a large historic home. Entering through the front of the home, a Florida room is the perfect place to enjoy morning coffee and is nicely shaded by a large Oak Tree in the front yard. Continuing into the home, a gorgeous stained glass front door opens into a warm and inviting entryway, rich with historic details. One bedroom is conveniently located on the first floor near the entry and has its own en-suite bathroom, a great guest suite or first floor master bedroom. From the entryway move on to the formal parlor and dining rooms, the high ceilings are beautiful and full of character, complemented by the lovely décor and wood-burning fireplace, this is truly the heart of the home. Near the living room a sun room is being used as an office and also shares the double sided fireplace, with lots of natural light this room has endless possibilities. A well-designed addition on the back of the home adds modern functionality with a casual living area for morning news or movie night, and a HUGE KITCHEN. The spacious kitchen offers tons of cabinet and counter space, granite countertops, and a large pantry! The second floor has three guest bedrooms, and a guest bathroom, as well as the spacious master suite. The master suite features an open concept bathroom with a large dual vanity open to the rest of the room, while the toilet and updated shower are located in a more private setting.
