This is your opportunity to own a piece of West Palm Beach’s early history. This historic home circa 1923 is located in Grandview Heights and is nestled behind a white picket fence among mature Mahogany trees. A Chicago brick driveway provides 2 off-street parking places. The Bungalow has cedar shake siding and the current owners added a welcoming entry porch with pecky cypress ceiling and Art Deco lead glass door and side light panels. The home retains much of its original charm and architectural detail and has an abundance of windows making it a light and bright home. Enter into a foyer with a 9’ high bead board ceiling and original Dade County pine floors that are throughout the home. A working wood burning fireplace is the focal point of the living room which is enhanced by custom built-in bookshelves and cabinets. The kitchen cabinetry is original with lead glass fronts, black granite counters, marble backsplash, gas stove, stainless appliances, and bar top that opens to a formal dining room. A stunning master bath has been added under the current ownership which features marble floors, double sink vanity and oversized shower with marble walls and double shower heads. The guest bath features the original claw foot bath tub. A dedicated laundry/mud room off the kitchen has its original brick floor and a stamped brick in its center with the year 1924. The outside is the true treasure here complete with a pool, hot tub and its own "sandy beach" and fire pit encircled by Adirondack chairs. You'll spend endless hours here entertaining friends and family at cookouts and pool parties. A built-in bench provides additional outdoor seating under the shade of the Mahogany tree. All lighting fixtures have been replaced in keeping with current styles and trends. Roof 2005, updated electrical and plumbing, all wiring from the pole was installed underground. Owners have an approved plan to build a garage with second floor apartment above (plans attached). There is a very active neighborhood association. Howard Park and its dog park is where neighbors gather to walk their dogs and catch up with one another. The neighborhood is surrounded by endless entertainment and dining options with CityPlace, The Kravis Center for Performing Arts, Armory Arts Center, Palm Beach County Convention Center, the Norton Museum of Art and many of West Palm's finest restaurants within walking distance, Table 26, Grato and The Regional, just to name a few. The Flagler waterfront is just a few short blocks away, and over the bridge lies the glitzy Island of Palm Beach, its infamous Worth Avenue and beautiful beach. Antique Row, a local destination that brings dealers from as far away as Los Angeles to buy the Palm Beach and South Florida lifestyle is a stone's throw from this home. Centrally located to I-95, the Palm Beach Airport and the rail station. Learn more about Grandview Heights and its past by viewing this link: http://www.grandviewheights.net/History.htm.
