Wish there were enough space to write of all the wonderful history & charm this home encompasses as it has been written about by a Tribune columnist in the late 1980's over 100 years after this home was built & again more recently in a S. Tampa magazine.Truly remarkable home with so much character, with its wrap-around porch, tongue-in-groove wainscoting, rosettes on door moldings, original doorknobs preserve the turn of the century look of the place built in 1896! Referred to as "the big house" or "Fitzgerald House on Shamrock" to those in 1902. Upon entering you'll feel a sense of home, sentiment, coziness & space. Hardwood floors & High Ceilings throughout; keeping with the integrity of this Victorian home. 1st flr. master with 2 closets, bath has double sinks & linen closet. Enjoy floor to ceiling windows that surround the family room off of the dining room overlooking the fountain & gazebo. Plenty of windows & light & nice sized kitchen with white oak cabinets. 2 bedrooms upstairs, French doors leadto sunroom/office/workout room off of the 2nd bedroom. The backyard has Wisteria that blooms beautifully, a Meyer lemon tree and gazebo that served as an aviary where finches once resided. All rooms are generous in size.
