HISTORIC DEAN PARK HOME. 3BR/2BA UNDER ONE ROOF. LOT 140’ WIDE. Built in 1915, the original cottage portion of this fully updated home was just the second property in historic Dean Park. The wing with the great room and primary bedroom was added in 2005, expanding the home to 1840 sq ft plus a huge garage with alley access. The oversized lot is filled with mature trees and lush landscaping. There’s a paver stone patio area enclosed by a privacy fence create your own Shangri-La in the heart of the city. Like all of Dean Park, the home was affected by Hurricane Ian, but the professional remediation preserved the charm of the original woodwork and brickwork--including a wood-burning fireplace in the entry room--but added the comfort and convenience of updated bathrooms and kitchen. With wooden cabinets, granite countertops and new stainless appliances, the kitchen is centrally located between the formal dining room and the large family room, making the home perfect for entertaining, inside or out. The spacious primary bedroom suite is large and has two walk-in closets. The primary bath has a walk-in shower. A wrap-around front porch and two side porches invite you to relax and enjoy the tranquil environment. Huge attached garage has a bright workshop, perfect for people who tinker or garden. Or it could be converted into additional living space. There’s extra space outside to park vehicles or machinery but it is separated from the entertainment patio by the privacy fence. Although the home has city water, there is a well that feeds a buried sprinkler system. Day or night, you can stroll the tree lined sidewalks along quiet pet friendly streets to absorb the historic environment of Dean Park. Add a few steps to reach the downtown River District with its plethora of restaurant and entertainment choices, plus the river front park with its newly added play area and band shell.
