This ranch-style cottage offers a refreshing break from the overdone Florida stucco design, bringing charm, space, and functionality together in a way that’s hard to find. Set on an oversized 0.28-acre lot, this 1,390 square foot home features multiple covered porches to enjoy both the front and rear tropical landscaping. With vinyl siding, gable rooflines, and a two-car garage, the exterior reflects a classic, country-cottage character that’s both inviting and timeless. Inside, you’ll find a well-kept 3-bedroom, 2-bath layout with the main living upon entrance, and the bedrooms and bathrooms toward the rear of the property. The flooring is laminate throughout the main living areas and bedrooms, with tile in the kitchen and bathrooms for easy maintenance. The primary suite includes a walk-in closet and an en-suite bath with a shower. The indoor laundry room sits just off the living area and garage entry for convenience. Outside, you’ll enjoy a wide-open side yard to the south—rare space for gardening, play, or future possibilities. A nostalgic treehouse adds character to the backyard, and the lot is enclosed on three sides with vinyl fencing. There is NO HOA or deed restrictions, so bring your boat, toys, or creative ideas to enhance this incredible property. The community boat ramp is less than 1/4 mile away, and optional membership may be available for a nominal annual fee. The home fared the 2024 hurricane season without issue. The HVAC condenser and water heater were replaced in 2024; the roof was redone in 2016, the fence installed in 2018, and the garage door updated in 2020. Flood insurance is required, so this is critical when identifying buyer affordability. You can buy a new home—but they just don’t build them with this kind of character, space, and soul anymore. This is the kind of property that doesn’t come around often—schedule your showing and see what makes it so special.
