Property Description
Welcome to The Chelsea Charmer, nestled into the heart of Southeast Seminole Heights. They just don't build houses like this anymore. Built in the 1950s, the Chelsea Charmer is the kind of bungalow that makes you slow down as you drive by and admire how darling the house is, and you wonder to yourself what it looks like inside. With its 224 sqft front porch and freshly painted exterior, it looks every bit the storybook home you imagine when you think of sipping sweet tea on a warm southern afternoon. Step inside and feel the charm wrap around you like a warm hug-because that's exactly what coming home should feel like. Throughout the home, original hardwood floors in a warm, rich deep-brown set the tone, complemented by new light fixtures, newly painted interior, and a brand-new 6-lite wood front door that adds just the right touch of character. The kitchen blends timeless style with modern convenience: granite countertops, white shaker cabinets, subway tile backsplash, and stainless steel appliances (including a slide-in range and brand-new microwave). Off the kitchen, a spacious laundry/mud room connects directly to the back deck, creating a natural flow between daily life and outdoor living. There are three bedrooms and one bathroom, each space full of character and possibilities. The primary bedroom connects to the Jack-and-Jill style bath, while the second bedroom at the back is cozy in size but big on potential-ideal for a nursery, home office, reading nook, art studio, playroom, or even a future second bathroom. Upstairs, the oversized third bedroom feels like its own private hideaway, complete with space for a desk nook or cozy reading corner. At the front of the home, the dining room-with its own closet-could just as easily serve as a fourth bedroom or flex space if you prefer. Out back, this home continues to charm you with an oversized quarter-acre lot. A large deck wraps around a majestic oak tree, creating the perfect backdrop for dinner parties, quiet mornings, or little ones playing under its shade. A storage shed adds practicality, while the yard offers space to garden, entertain, or dream up future projects. And because a historic home is even sweeter with peace of mind, you'll love knowing it has a new roof, new hot water heater, and updated plumbing and electrical systems. The Chelsea Charmer isn't just a house-it's a feeling. A little slice of Seminole Heights history where cozy charm meets modern comfort, waiting for you to write its next chapter. Make this your new Seminole Heights home!
