Experience the charm and rich history of Old Florida with this historic cracker style home known as the Lillian Hart House. Built in 1926, this 3 bedroom, 2 bath home has been updated with modern conveniences while preserving its natural historic beauty. It is situated on 7 acres behind a gated entrance with a canopy of mature live oak and palm trees.
The sheen of the original wood floors can be seen throughout the home. The kitchen features gorgeous 100+ year-old cypress countertops from the Apalachicola River. They are complemented by white cabinetry, energy-efficient appliances, and a butcher block to provide a little farmhouse charm.
Facing the kitchen is a library with floor to ceiling shelving with a cozy sitting space. The recently renovated all wood loft-style 3rd bedroom is above the library. It can be used as office space, craft or playroom with its own climate control.
The living room features a fireplace and the master bedroom has lots of light flowing in and ample closet space with modern built-in shelving.
The first bathroom has a rehabbed clawfoot tub with classic faucet and handles; the second bath offers a shower and additional overhead storage in a large one-of-a-kind stained glass cabinet.
The spacious porch offers 360-degree views of lush old Florida scenery. It is surrounded by a deck on three sides. With over 1250 sqft of outdoor living space, you can lounge with friends and family to take in the views of Sandhill cranes and deer while listening to the sounds of birds and other wildlife.
If you desire a farm lifestyle, there is an animal pen and fully enclosed chicken coop, and pasture towards the back of the property where you can keep horses or plant a garden. Enjoy fruit from the existing citrus, banana or pear trees and enjoy their sweet smells when in bloom.
The workshop has electric and can be used as a garage to park a classic car with room to work or for boat parking. An additional room around the left side of the shed offers plenty of storage for your mower and kayaks.
