HISTORIC GEM

A signature estate in a city full of historic gems, 65 Fullerwood Drive sets the bar high. Circa 1870, this stately residence retains its Greek Revival elements to this day. Nestled on just under 3/4s of an acre with mature oaks and native landscaping, this architecturally enduring home enjoys a welcome swimming pool tucked out of sight and separate guesthouse which will never lack for company.

Embracing the southern clime, verandas and porches wrap around the east and south sides beckoning you to sit and contemplate the natural beauty around you. Step inside and allow the house to unfold before you. The library is a favorite room with its custom bookshelves flanking large windows. Sunlit living room looks over the veranda out to the sparkling pool through 3 sets of double glass doors. Gas fireplace is ready for cool evenings when they come around again. Dining room graciously accommodates a formal event or family dinner with equal ease courtesy of the amazing adjacent kitchen which has ample room for a family room combination or for a large table for all the guests who come to visit. Half bath, laundry and trio of closets round out this area as you approach the game room situated about the garage. Complete with its own bathroom, think gym, office, billliards or guest suite.

Off the main stairway in front, the 2nd floor is presently used as owners’ quarters with bedroom, dressing room, bath and office. 3rd floor offers 2 large bedrooms (one with office) and shared bath.

The 1/1 guest house is ideal for long-term company and enjoys its own driveway and bricked patio. Pool and spa enjoy diffused sunshine most of the day and if kayaking is a passion, you’ll be happy about being on Hospital Creek. Ginger lilies along the semi-circular drive are splendid in spring and the “coquina” block wall completes the fencing around the estate. It’s a magical place steeped in history, loved by its owners for its timeless elegance and ready for new memories to be made.
