Description
Welcome to 308 W 15th Street! Take a step back in time with this historic Colonial-style "Catalogue Home" by Sears Roebuck. Offering a four-bedroom main house, detached garage with a one-bedroom apartment above, a double lot, and an oversized lap pool, this property has it all! With rich wood flooring, high ceilings, high-profile baseboards, crown molding, and trim, there is no shortage of 1920s charm.
A formal entryway welcomes you home with views of the living room and kitchen framed by arched doorways. The beautifully updated kitchen boasts custom cabinetry, stone countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a gas range. The floorplan includes an interior laundry room and a walk-in pantry. The kitchen features an elegant, large format tile, and original hardwood floors span the rest of the home. The downstairs master en suite has a walk-in closet and charming bathroom with black and white tiling. The living room is flanked by a focal gas fireplace and two sets of French doors that adjoin the sunroom. The sunroom boasts windows on three sides, providing beautiful natural light. Upstairs are three bedrooms and an updated full bathroom. The largest of the bedrooms has a cozy, wood-burning fireplace.
Back downstairs, the kitchen provides access to a screened porch and outdoor deck overlooking the backyard – perfect for outdoor dining or relaxing with a cup of coffee. The oversized, heated lap pool and separate koi pond are the focal points of the outdoor space. The swimming pool is equipped with a solar heating system and a gas heat pump. A separate gas hook-up is available to connect an outdoor grill.
The expansive double lot has a brand-new fence with a drive-in gate for R/V or boat parking. Featuring a combined living and bedroom area, a functional kitchen, and a full bathroom, the apartment above the detached one-car garage can be used for guests or to generate rental income.
Function meets historic charm with updated electrical, plumbing, and a tankless gas water heater. The shingle roof of the main house was replaced in 2015. The gas generator conveys with the purchase and is ready for hurricane season.
This property is located within downtown Sanford's highly coveted golf-cart zone. It's just a leisurely cruise to all the shopping, dining, and riverfront recreation that historic downtown Sanford offers.
