**THIS PROPERTY HAS FLOOD DAMAGE FROM HURRICANE HELENE ON THE FIRST FLOOR** Being sold AS-IS. The second floor of this home is completely intact with no damage from the hurricane. You could remodel the first floor, tear the home down, or raise the home up. The sellers were given a ballpark of $150,000 to raise the home and another $40,000 - $50,000 to redo the mechanicals. Many of the photos are what the home looked like prior to Hurricane Helene. This stunning Dutch Colonial home was built in 1924 along with a handful of other historic homes from the 1920s in the neighborhood. While this home is celebrating turning 100 this year, it has all the modern amenities and updates you’ve come to expect. Much of the original character has been preserved. Upon walking up to the home, you are greeted with wood columns flanking the brick front porch along with a curved beadboard ceiling. Step inside to the luxurious and welcoming entryway. Off the back of the home is a Florida room that could also be used as a great office. There is an indoor laundry closet attached to the first-floor bathroom. Walking up the wide stairs to the second floor you will notice the original steps, railing, and wood banisters. There are three generously sized bedrooms upstairs along with a smaller fourth bedroom/nursery/office. Upstairs you’ll notice the original hardwood flooring, crown molding, framed-out windows/doors, and high baseboards. The primary bedroom has its own door that connects to the one full bathroom on the second floor. The bathroom has a newer vanity, charming hexagon tile flooring, wainscoting, and a tub with subway tile. All the additional upgrades are as follows: roof (2020), hurricane-rated impact windows (2018), new hurricane-rated steel front door w/ side lights (2024), crawlspace completely encapsulated by LRE Foundation & Repair(2022, and second-floor A/C system (2017). Step outside to the outdoor oasis complete with a newer in-ground pool, large brick paver patio, mature landscaping, and a fully fenced-in yard. There is plenty of parking out front with the half-circle driveway. Off the kitchen is an enclosed mud room/storage room that also has access to the rear yard.
