Agent Remarks

In the lovely Marina Historic District Neighborhood, this quiet and spacious setting is just a half block from the famous and eclectic Atlantic Avenue in the City's vibrant "Central Core" downtown district, with the pristine beach also just a 5-minute bike-ride away. This property has an Old Florida charm and takes on a fresh new personality in this rare gem, originally built in 1929, sit's on a double lot and was recently restored in keeping with its special character, nestled in an exotic and alluring garden paradise laden with palm trees, foliage and greenery making the backyard a leafy oasis. Less than a block off Atlantic Avenue makes for easy walking to everything downtown, and a short walk to the beach or marina. Approached by a tropically landscaped drive, this casually elegant residence opens to an enchanting backyard retreat where a lounge terrace with garden pergola surrounds the pool and beautifully manicured patio and garden.

Taking on a fresh, sophisticated personality, this designer-furnished residence is welcoming and at one with its lush garden setting. The light and airy two-level residence totals 2,152 square feet with 3 bedrooms, assigned parking and a separate one bedroom one bath beautifully decorated 2nd floor apartment making it a total of 4 bedrooms. Gently vaulted ceilings and amazing Dade County Pine floors create a graceful historic ambiance as you enter. Original fireplace is embedded in the living room wall, making that room perfect for family fun or entertaining and each room in this home breathes a sense of history.

This spectacular property has a new pool, gazebo and apartment and has been beautifully restored to enhance the charm of the Marina Historic District Neighborhood lifestyle. The living room focal point is the open cypress beam cathedral ceiling, fireplace and the original Dade County pine flooring.
