Charming home on corner lot in prestigious East Hill, shaded by an elegant Chinese Elm, just steps from celebrated Bayview Park. The freshly painted home exudes old world charm, inviting a feeling of classic elegance and a refined, but understated essence. Hardwood floors, crown molding, soaring ceilings, and 30 + windows evoke a bright and upbeat feeling throughout. The living room showcases a window seat and fireplace; and in the dining room are bookshelves and a chandelier. The large primary bedroom suite includes a fireplace, cheerful sitting room, a full bath and two huge walk-in closets. One bedroom has a private bath and the other, off the kitchen can be used as an office, media room, bedroom or nursery. The updated kitchen overlooks the gardens and features original Saltillo tile floors, stainless appliances, marble countertops and a gas stove. There’s a fully-floored attic with antique set of pull-down stairs, ‘smart’ washer and dryer, a tankless water heater, whole house water filter, Generac generator, a Tuff-shed, and a professionally landscaped yard with a huge patio, boasting a graceful two-tiered fountain and designer lighting. The side door leads to a deck overlooking a hand-laid Chicago brick walkway and a separate guest suite: a perfect rental, providing additional income, with two skylights, a kitchen, bathroom, and walk-in closet. You’re just minutes from downtown, shopping centers, hospitals, schools, airport and a short drive to the most radiant beaches and crystal-clear water in Florida.
