About This Property
Step into a rare blend of timeless character and modern luxury in the heart of Sanford’s Historic District. This stunning 1920s residence has been thoughtfully reimagined, preserving its original charm while delivering the upgrades today’s buyers expect.
From the moment you arrive, the inviting front porch sets the tone for what’s inside. A vintage wood entry door with antique hardware welcomes you into a space filled with warmth, where original hardwood floors and curated designer lighting create an atmosphere that feels both elevated and effortless.
At the center of the home, the kitchen is a true showpiece. Designed for both everyday living and entertaining, it features solid wood cabinetry with soft-close details, exotic granite countertops, and a 36-inch six-burner Thermador gas range that will impress even the most serious home chef.
The floor plan offers flexibility and space, with five bedrooms, four bathrooms, and multiple living areas including a loft or office. Whether you are hosting guests, working from home, or creating a multi-generational setup, this home adapts to your lifestyle.
Step outside and you will find a private backyard retreat designed for entertaining. The pool has been resurfaced and retiled, creating a fresh and inviting space to gather. Just beyond, the detached pool house adds even more versatility with its own kitchen, full bath, French doors, and exposed brick accents. Perfect for guests, a studio, or income potential.
Behind the scenes, the major systems have already been taken care of with a new roof, updated plumbing and electrical, three new AC units, and irrigation, giving you peace of mind for years to come.
The location brings it all together. Situated in Sanford’s Cultural Corridor, you are just moments from the RiverWalk, Fort Mellon Park, and the vibrant downtown scene filled with local dining, shops, and entertainment. With residential and restricted commercial zoning, the possibilities here are just as exciting as the home itself.
This is more than a home. It is a lifestyle, an investment, and a rare opportunity to own a piece of Sanford’s history with all the modern upgrades already in place.
