Davis Shores Mid-Century Ranch with Cottage
Description:
Mid-century home aficionados will be delighted with this intelligently designed house that suits modern living with original vintage style intact. A 1/1 accessory unit/in-law suite in back offers privacy for visiting friends and family so extended stays will be easy and comfortable for everyone. Concrete block construction with metal roofing is a happy plus.
Honey-hued oak floors run throughout the main residence which enjoys a circular plan between living, dining, kitchen and morning rooms. Each room is clearly defined but open to the next for easy flow. An abundance of windows throughout invites natural light inside. Living room is adjacent to the morning/flex room with its 2 walls of windows, and also to the dining room which is just off the kitchen.
Maple cabinets line the walls of the kitchen and there’s a lot of counterspace for meal prep. Back door opens to patio for grilling and dining outdoors if that’s your pleasure.
Main bedroom is en-suite and overlooks front yard. An awning keeps the light low so you can sleep in after an evening out. A short hall off the dining room leads to 2 more generous bedrooms and a shared bath with both soaking tub and separate shower plus a lot of storage. An extremely livable and comfortable house in a favorite island neighborhood, the owner of the past 30 years loved her time here and was meticulous in the care of her home. The in-law suite enjoys a beamed ceiling which gives the living area extra volume. With windows on 3 sides, it’s a large sunny room with kitchenette on one end. Bedroom, closet and bath are on the north side.
One block to the Boulevard, Boulevard where independent eateries, brewery, indie retail and other shops dot this “island main street” in both directions. Lined with sidewalks, you can walk or ride your bike to Anastasia State Park, home of the most beautiful beach and the Amp where you can check out amazing concerts along with our famous Saturday Farmer’s Market. The Boulevard is a destination in its own right and it will take some time to explore every bit of it. A short hop over the bridge takes you downtown and you can do it without your car!
