680 8th Ave., Naples, FL 34102

The historic 1929 Captain Parker House is not just amazing because of the finishes, the architecture, or that it was the first house built on 8th Ave S, but also because it captures the dream of Old Naples. The botanical garden setting overlooking Cambier Park is on a private corner with a 50' Royal Poinciana tree planted in 1939, birds of paradise, frangipani, banana, coffee, coconut and gardenias. The 2-story home has the original look, feel, warmth and character of a historic home including restored old-growth heart pine floors, metal roof and large porch. Combined with all the modern updates including a chef’s kitchen with a Lacanche gas range, Sub-Zero refrigerator and wine cooler, new bathrooms, high ceilings, whole-house generator, impact-rated windows and Hardie board siding. Enjoy the private grotto-style pool hidden a world away behind lush tropical landscaping. All within a short distance to 5th Avenue South, Third Street South and Naples' famous beaches. If life in a tropical paradise location with charming palm-lined streets, chic boutiques, restaurants, and white sand beaches is your Naples dream, make this sunny playground your home.
