Professionally updated, Classically styled. The craftsmanship of this home renovation is rarely matched in our real estate market. Homeowners, handymen, weekend warriors do not provide the meticulous passion that you find in each area of this project. The current homeowners purchased from the original owners and executed a completely permitted and thorough renovation during the home’s 50th anniversary, 2015. Gutted to the studs and the floorplan reimagined, all plumbing and electrical services were replaced. Hurricane impact windows were installed throughout the home, immaculate solid oak flooring was refinished on the stairs and throughout the entire upstairs. Refinished Terrazzo flooring in the living dining space speaks to the history of the home and feels the style of the period. Terrazzo continues into the office or 5th downstairs bedroom with a wonderful view of the spectacular pool and landscape. The well-appointed third full bath serves this office/bedroom flex space, direct access to the pool area, and guests. A modern open kitchen with long island, wine storage, 4 comfortable seats and the adjacent breakfast space provides the entertainment and culinary experience we seek. Upon arrival, you may be tempted to check your expectations, as we always find some disappointment in what lies beyond the front door. Allow your expectations to be heightened; enjoy this experience. Every floor is immaculate and makes sense: keeping the period spirit or ushering in the modern updates. It’s a comfortable home where you may want to sit, work, entertain or relax. Exit via the 3-panel hurricane impact slider onto the slate floored screened porch (34x9˜300sf) and enjoy outdoor living and dining. The rear yard of this home is absolutely amazing. The pool and paver design by Sekas Custom Pools includes a 15’x45’ Pebblesheen pool with sunshelf and seating benches in the pool, water features and excellent Hayward heating and salt systems. The landscape plan and execution by Southern Exteriors Landscape Design is a natural mosaic of large classic trees, perfectly placed areca and other palms, spacious zoysia grass yards, and open paver spaces. The flat roof, the HVAC ducting, and HVAC systems have all been replaced in the last 5 years.
