Seldom does a property of such distinction and character come to market in Old Seminole Heights, where every corner reveals a unique charm, and every inch of space tells a captivating tale. Nestled in the heart of this storied historic district, this magnificent 3628 sq. ft. 1922 bungalow stands as a testament to timeless elegance and sophistication. As you approach this stunning residence, the inviting, quintessential wraparound front porch beckons you to pause and take in the sights and sounds of this vibrant, community-rich neighborhood. It’s the perfect place to sway gently on the porch swing, sipping a frosty beverage or glass of wine, while the shaded Florida breezes drift by. This lovely home offers four spacious bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms, including a two car garage and private office space/studio/4th bedroom plus other unique spaces and surprises. Step inside, and you are immediately captivated by the home’s enchanting blend of character and craftsmanship. The formal living and dining rooms feature original hardwood floors, a beautiful fireplace, built-in bookcases, and an inviting window seat. Crystal chandeliers and wall sconces glisten beneath soaring 10-foot ceilings, which are adorned with rich mahogany wood beams, adding a touch of opulence to the space. The paneled walls further amplify the home’s old-world charm and warmth.
To the left of the dining room, a hallway leads to two bedrooms, where the grandeur of the ceilings continues, enhanced by original hardwood floors and ample closet space. A generously sized bathroom with a soaking tub offers a serene retreat for relaxation.
The expansive kitchen is outfitted with modern stainless-steel appliances, including dual built-in ovens and a gas top range. Two side-by-side refrigerators and granite-tiled countertops provide both beauty and function, while an expansive breakfast nook overlooks the enchanting courtyard. An indoor laundry closet completes this area of the home.
As you ascend the staircase to the second level, prepare to be delighted by a series of exciting surprises. The first is a large loft surrounded by an abundance of windows offering a bright and airy space ideal for a den or office. But it’s the pièce de résistance that awaits: the upstairs “party room.” Beneath the shimmer of a glittering disco ball, this entertainment space features lighted display cases, fireplace, wet bar, and DJ stand and its own bathroom. Just beyond the room, French doors open to reveal an expansive covered deck and balcony, extending your living space and inviting you to effortlessly take the party outside.
