Property Description
Under contract-accepting backup offers. Handsome Historic Home! Positioned just so in the heart of Historic Arcadia you’ll find that “Old Florida” Dream Home that finds you in your dreams, and illudes you in your hunt… until now! Nestled perfectly on a stately corner lot, boasting almost ONE FULL ACRE, and a detached guest house that could be repurposed to suit even the most discerning tastes. One can truly have their cake and eat it too with this charming estate-like property! Traverse the threshold and instantly find yourself taken aback as the grandiose floorplan welcomes you warmly into its embrace. From floor to ceiling and wall to wall; the finishings of your new home are just as seductive as its surroundings. Whether it’s the alluring hardwood flooring, the six inviting brick fireplaces generously placed, or the ornate detailing’s of the oversized baseboard and woodwork finishes that adorn the majority of the home; one could relish in all that is currently afforded to them or realize their ideal masterpiece allowing this robust foundation to serve as the springboard. Exploring the main floor of your new home you will be pleasantly surprised knowing it plays host to an extensive family room outfitted with built in shelving, fireplace, and flanked by your sizable Florida room, where one can relax taking in the morning breeze whilst sipping on their favorite brew and listening to birdsong. Stroll through the elegant dining room that leads into the expansive kitchen where storage space abounds by way of a closet pantry, ample solid wood cabinetry, and the tasteful granite countertops serve as the icing on the cake! Mosey across the hall to one of what could be many owners’ suites highlighted by opulent tile flooring, a generous walk-in closet, and not ONE… but TWO en-suites perfect for when one needs their peaceful solitude. As if you weren’t already awestruck by the magnitude of your new home, just off the owner’s suite you’ll reveal an additional living room/den and enormous enclosed porch ideal for hosting large family gatherings, or a simple evening unwinding area. Meander upstairs and you’ll locate four respectably sized bedrooms outfitted with features consistent throughout the entirety of the home; two of which graciously offer up private en-suites to whomever lays claim. Rounding the bend on the second-floor tour you’ll happen upon a separate guest bathroom featuring an attractively tiled walk-in shower. Did we forget to mention that your new slice of Florida Paradise has no HOA Dues, CDD Fees, deed restrictions, and potential to be rezoned for commercial purposes?!... I know… it seems too good to be true, and yet it isn’t! Whether you’re looking to put down roots, throw in a pool, and take solace in your family's forever home; or just looking to seize an opportunity to own an integral piece of history in the ever-changing town of Arcadia…WELCOME HOME! OPPORTUNITIES SUCH AS THIS ARE FEW, FAR BETWEEN, AND FLEETING! CALL TODAY TO SCHEDULE YOUR PRIVATE SHOWING!
