Every inch of this home, from the mechanical systems to the cosmetic updates, was completely and thoughtfully redone in 2024. No shortcuts were taken—no “flipper-grade” choices, no subpar craftsmanship, and all updates were done with proper permits. HVAC, electrical, plumbing, foundation, drywall, kitchen, bathrooms—everything was addressed and improved.
This traditional shotgun bungalow, which has withstood the test of time for nearly 100 years, holds a special place in history. Built in 1925 by a Cuban-American cigar factory worker for his family, the home has only had three owners since its construction.
As you step through the front door, you’re welcomed into an open floorplan. The spacious living room flows into the dining area, which comfortably accommodates a table for six. The kitchen, featuring crisp wood shaker cabinets and a stainless steel appliance package, is ready for any home chef to create culinary delights. The two secondary bedrooms provide ample closet space, along with additional transom storage. Both the secondary and primary bathrooms are adorned with period-appropriate tiles and sleek matte plumbing and lighting fixtures, offering a perfect blend of vintage charm and modern style.
The primary suite easily fits a king-size bed and boasts a custom closet with built-in shelving for maximum storage.
At the back of the house you will find the generously sized mud/laundry room, complete with a mural painted by a local artist, is a unique and colorful touch. The fully fenced backyard is a compact oasis, with space to park several cars in the driveway. Enjoy the fruits of homeownership with mangoes and sour oranges that are ready for harvest year-round.
