Property Description
Under contract-accepting backup offers. A rare opportunity to own a meticulously restored circa 1908 historic riverfront estate on approximately 1.6 acres along the Halifax River, just minutes from downtown Ormond Beach, Rockefeller Gardens, public beaches, boat ramps, fishing piers, and riverside parks. This extraordinary property seamlessly marries preserved early-20th-century craftsmanship with thoughtful modern upgrades, offering timeless character, privacy, and waterfront living at its finest. Spanning over 4,500 square feet, the residence features five bedrooms, five full baths, two half baths, and an additional bath in the four-car garage. Three bedrooms offer private full baths, one includes a private half bath, and two share a full bath. Gorgeous heart pine, cypress and chestnut flooring flows throughout, complemented by period built-ins, bench seating with hidden storage, and beautifully restored millwork. A wood-burning fireplace anchors the living room, while the formal dining room showcases original cabinetry and a butler's pantry.
The home offers exceptional flexibility with a kitchen, family room, living room, formal dining room, office, upstairs office area, laundry room, enclosed sun porch, and screened side porch.
