Description

Expertly custom rejuvenated over the course of six years, this authentic Florida bungalow has been completely overhauled utilizing the highest quality, locally sourced antique wood - the legendary Heart of Long Leaf Yellow Pine. The front & back of the house entryways feature loft beds suspended with boat halyard cables. As you walk through the cavernous living room, you'll notice the high ceilings, and to the left a hallway with laundry area and full bathroom with a handcrafted sink supported by a 2 foot round cedar log discovered in the Suwannee River, naturally smoothed over decades under water. The two bedrooms feature hand-built barn doors, and in the larger bedroom there is an in-suite bathroom with gorgeous custom tile work. The master chef kitchen has stainless steel walls that are extra easy to clean & sanitize, along with a Jacaranda wood live edge countertop hand milled from a locally grown tree. A live edge Cuban Mahogany bookshelf, the wood was rescued off the shores of Cuba after Hurricane Andrew in 1990 during a sailing excursion. The metal roof was meticulously installed and is extremely efficient at reducing the need for heating/cooling energy usage. All updated hurricane grade windows. The on demand hot water heater is fueled by two exterior propane tanks, while a gas line is available just at the nearby street corner if new owner wishes to connect it to the house. Every original doorknob, hinge, and hardware has been carefully rebuilt. The home is a work of art, and the entire collection of furnishings including hanging art and instruments on the walls are included in the sale. This is a unique masterpiece that is both warm and welcoming while also being absolutely turn-key ready to enjoy for many years.
