Property Description
The ONE and ONLY is up for sale! Do you want a showstopper house on a brick street? Have you been dreaming of a gorgeous, exceptionally updated historic bungalow but with the sturdiness of a block home? This is the ONLY bungalow in Historic Kenwood built completely out of rare Coquina block mined from seashells near St. Augustine. Located just one block from beautiful Seminole Park and Central Avenue, this bungalow beauty is in a perfect location (non-flood zone!), just minutes by foot to the Grand Central district and all its fantastic shops, restaurants and bars.
Where to begin about this home? How about the insanely beautiful Instagram-worthy front yard featuring an award-winning Southwest-style xeriscape garden! This showpiece is your entrance to the house's extra wide porch graced with original Cuban tile, and perfect for outdoor entertaining and evening cocktails.
As you then move through the light-filled house, you’ll notice the many updated windows that showcase the gorgeous flora (and fauna) surrounding the home, including the many cardinals, blue jays, woodpeckers, yellow finches, doves and wild parrots that regularly visit the backyard.
The living room is centered around a gorgeous, fully working Coquina brick fireplace that adds a beautiful ambiance to the entire house. Your friends and family will enjoy hanging out at the custom bar built with out of cyprus wood, milled locally at Anderson’s Lumber, that looks directly into the airy open kitchen.
The kitchen appliances are all KitchenAid and all lighting is from Restoration Hardware. The owners spared no expense in updating this home: the electric (200 amp panel) was updated in 2017; the plumbing was updated in 2017; and the A/C was fully updated in 2020. Original pine floors run throughout the home. This house also passed a 4-point test with flying colors in November 2022.
The bedrooms are light-filled and feature large closets, while the back room can be used either as an office or a bedroom, with a cute half bath located on the side.
The main bathroom has a beautiful Kohler Brockway sink, Restoration Hardware lighting and medicine cabinet, and a gorgeous tiled rain shower.
As you head out back, you’ll find one of the most serene and beautiful backyards in Historic Kenwood. Lounge around your extra large deck, which has enough room for a dining table on one side and an entire couch area for cocktails and an outdoor firepit on the other. Enjoy the beautiful, custom-designed saltwater pool as the bamboo sways back and forth. This back yard has been landscaped to perfection using palms and native plants. Done swimming or just back from the beach? Why drag sand and wet clothes into the house, just jump into the stunning custom-built outdoor shower!
The detached Coquina block garage matches the house, and features a new roof, a brand new garage door and a lovely paved driveway where you could park another car if you so desire.
This classic, beautifully-sited Historic Kenwood bungalow is unique and absolutely gorgeous. It is your ideal home base for entertaining indoors, hosting porch parties, holding backyard pool parties and barbeques, or just lounging by the fireplace during the winter months.
