First time on the market in over 51 years! This cherished home, filled with decades of memories and pride of ownership, is a rare treasure blending vintage charm with modern comfort. From the moment you arrive, you'll be captivated by the lush curb appeal-meticulously maintained landscaping adorned with a striking row of mature Sego palms, custom cinder block planters, and a Spanish tile walkway leading to a welcoming front porch and an intricately handcrafted solid wood entry door. Inside, the warmth of "home sweet home" is immediate. Sunlight spills generously through the expansive windows, bathing the living room in a golden glow that evokes comfort and familiarity. The lovingly preserved kitchen, updated with maple cabinets and tile counters, flows seamlessly into a dedicated dining area and a convenient interior laundry space, perfectly suited to modern living while retaining its nostalgic charm. Each of the three bedrooms and the family room are light-filled and airy, blanketed in well-maintained, plush carpeting. In contrast, the kitchen and bathroom floors showcase beautifully preserved, retro-style premium vinyl, adding a dash of vintage elegance. At the rear of the home, the family room is rich with character, highlighted by exposed dark wood ceiling beams and a full-sized cinder block fireplace with built-in bench seating. This space offers a more intimate extension of daily life, tailor-made for those heartfelt gatherings, cozy evenings, and lasting memories. The detached 2-car garage is ideal for hobbyists or car enthusiasts, featuring a custom-built workshop behind with an oversized sliding door to the side yard, offering both light and space for exciting projects. A separate storage shed adds extra functionality. The desirable long driveway accommodates 7-8 cars, extending past a handsome wooden gate to a large back patio. With an expansive 6,170-square-foot lot, the back yard is framed by gorgeously curated landscaping and a lush green lawn, while tall, stately block walls provide both privacy and security. Recent desirable upgrades include a brand-new central heating and air conditioning system, new garage door and opener, energy-efficient double-pane windows and sliding doors, and fresh interior paints throughout. This is a home where history lives, where every corner whispers of stories shared, and where future memories are waiting to unfold. A rare opportunity to own a piece of lovingly preserved heritage-don't let it pass you by.
