THE VINTAGE APPEAL: You will find: coved ceilings, pastel bathrooms with original atomic tiles, original gold flecked Formica in the kitchen, original GE turquoise & chrome wall oven, and don't forget the fully restored 1959 NuTone combination clock/doorbell above the kitchen sink keeping perfect time again nearly 70 years later! The mid-century design choices that make this home great: gleaming terrazzo floors along with plaster walls for added insulation. The original & fully functional zoned radiant heat system throughout the house for when it becomes a little too chilly. Also, large closets were placed along entire walls so not only do you get great storage, but they also are sound barriers between rooms making the living space that much better! THE MODERN UPGRADES: Features to compliment the original charm include Brand New Glass paneled Samsung refrigerator and dishwasher which blend perfectly with the original slab-front cabinets. Stainless steel workstation sink in the kitchen, quartz counters in the bathrooms, upgraded lighting throughout the home with sleek ceiling fans in bedrooms and sunroom, and new Sherwin-Williams Emerald-grade paint through most of the interior and the exterior.

New hybrid water heater (2025) in the garage that pulls heat from the air to heat the water, highly practical and energy saving choice for Florida! All windows have screens, open perfectly and there are hurricane shutters stored in the shed. THE SMART FEATURES: Include keyless entry, WiFi enabled garage door opener, dishwasher and refrigerator that can be controlled by an app, an electricity use monitor, and remote controlled fans (some with color changing lights.) THE LAYOUT: From the front entry your gaze fixes on the spacious backyard through a huge door wall and the 4 season sunroom. The primary suite on the left, includes a bathroom, its own linen closet (accessible from the bathroom, through a little mirrored hatch), and two separate upgraded closets. To the right of the living space: a large bedroom (potentially a second primary) and a smaller one, with a hall bath.
