"Step back in time to the days of Old Florida in this charming, historic residence on Lido Key, located only a short walk away from white sandy shores. Situated on an expansive piece of land, beach grass, winding trails, and picturesque landscaping set a scene of tropical romance. Whimsical indoor/outdoor spaces create the feeling of a beachside holiday. Step inside where a welcoming great room begins the seaside-inspired dialogue, adorned with shiplap walls and terrazzo floors. Transitioning into a charming living room, guests are framed by a dramatic vaulted ceiling with exposed wood beams, wood-burning fireplace and original wood floors. The catch of the day will be deliciously prepared in the kitchen, sparkling with sunlight, stainless appliances, and coastal cabinetry. Three guest bedrooms and two and one half baths are located in the main house. The master suite, separated from the main house by a spacious screened porch, is perfectly positioned for privacy. The porch invites you to curl up with a good book while the cross ventilation captures the sea breezes. Outdoor living spaces extend the areas for entertaining and feature wood decking, a pergola, xeriscape yard, bamboo, and palm trees. New in 2018: metal and membrane roof, main water line, attic insulation, tankless water heater, AC, remodeled master bath. St. Armand's Circle, with its eclectic boutiques, galleries and a wide range of restaurants, is a 5 min. walk. The beach beckons nearby for sunset strolls, sea shelling, and endless sunning."
