FAVORITE NEIGHBORHOOD MID-CENTURY RANCH

Sitting on its own little rise, this cool mid-century modern has an elevation of 10′, enjoys low flood insurance premium and has been high and dry. 2018 improvements include new metal roof, replacement of all plumbing and refinishing of original oak floors, rendering them more beautiful than ever. Wiring, HVAC and water heater were updated in recent years so all the heavy lifting is done.

Loved by the owners for over 15 years, pride of ownership is evident at every turn including the wonderfully private backyard. Surrounded by stately oaks and graceful palms, the deck and patio enjoy year-round use and there’s ample room for gardening, touch football and grilling for a crowd of friends and family.

With an open floor plan, living, dining and kitchen flow together. Large bay window overlooks front yard and bathes the gathering space in soft natural light. Double-sided bar in kitchen offers extra seating while your meal prep and dishes stay out of sight of guests. Honey-hued pine cabinets are lovely but if you’re craving color, that’s an easy fix. Corner cupboard makes a great bar or a place for small appliances. A pass-through window connects kitchen to the Florida room which opens to patio and deck.

Spacious en-suite master has a walk-in closet (really!) and vintage bathroom. 2nd and 3rd bedrooms look out over the verdant backyard and share classic hall bath. An abundance of windows offer sunshine from all 4 directions so there’s always a sunlit corner waiting for you to nest.

Large deck and patio make outdoor living easy. Single car garage is deep and lined with cabinets and drawers. Storm coming our way? No problem – easy-to-install clear shutters are tucked in the corner if you need them.

In summary: great single-story house, a favorite uptown neighborhood (ask anyone who lives there) with annual block party, coffee/wine bar with live music, outstanding dessert shop and fine dining food truck within walking distance – welcome, you are going to like it here.
