Description

Originally built in 1908 and thoughtfully reimagined in 2018, this exceptional residence seamlessly blends the timeless character of historic Apalachicola with the comfort and peace of mind of modern construction. Located in the coveted South Historic District, this 2 bedroom, 2 bath home offers 1,923 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space in the desirable X Flood Zone, just a short walk or golf cart ride from the heart of one of Florida's most cherished coastal towns. Extensively reconstructed in 2018, the home preserves the original front portion of the residence, including the welcoming front porch, charming Florida room with original crank-out windows, the primary bedroom, and a versatile flex room, while the remainder of the home was beautifully redesigned for modern living. Major improvements include a new foundation, roof, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, insulation, appliances, and more, offering the confidence of newer construction without sacrificing historic charm. Original materials have been thoughtfully repurposed throughout, including ceiling boards transformed into a striking dining room accent wall, floor joists showcased as exposed beams, and historic doors reimagined as custom accents to the primary suite. A spacious screened back porch overlooks the private backyard, complete with a detached outbuilding featuring an outdoor bar and additional storage. Enjoy morning coffee, waterfront parks, locally owned shops, galleries, restaurants and lively bars, all just a short walk or golf cart ride away. Rich in maritime history and authentic Old Florida charm, Apalachicola remains one of the true gems of Florida's Forgotten Coast. This is more than a beautifully restored historic home, it's a rare opportunity to own a piece of history while enjoying the comfort, craftsmanship, and lifestyle of modern coastal living.
