Property Description

Under contract-accepting backup offers. LEASE OPTION CONSIDERED - A famous HOME! In 1876 Henry “DeLand” took a much needed vacation to Florida. He was so enamored with the warm weather, topography and natural beauty he decided to purchase land, lots of it! At 42 he had spent over half his life in the baking soda industry in New York. His proposal was to create a community to encourage tourism and orange cultivation. He played a role in everything, the first school, the first church, DeLand was later incorporated in 1882. This special home belonged to this visionary and will forever be a special part of this town. Nestled in the Historic District, this 1885 doll house is a short stroll to the city’s award winning Main Street. Exuding period specific character that cannot be matched, this is more than a home, this is a piece of history. Meticulously kept, this vintage charmer has over 2,600 sq ft of living space thoughtfully planned for everyday living. Timeless features include a brick fireplace, arched openings, built-in bookshelves, high ceilings, wrought iron stair railings, nostalgic lighting, decorative floor registers, original claw foot tub and mint condition heart pine flooring throughout! The main floor primary suite is a plus with 3 additional bedrooms located upstairs. Closet space is also a welcomed surprise, undoubtedly created over the past 140 years! All bedrooms have an ensuite or access to the Jack & Jill bathroom. A 1/2 bath is situated on the first floor for added convenience. Like many homes of the late 1800’s there was a huge focus on separate spaces for everything. This home presents this well without feeling to choppy! Downstairs you’ll find a proper foyer, office, living room with quintessential bay window, and a reading room or “parlor”. The kitchen is delightful with sage green cabinetry, stone wall and picturesque views through the many windows overlooking the back yard. A large island with quartz countertops and upscale appliances refines the space, not too overdone and complimentary to this era. Two additional sets of French doors also lead outside where you can enjoy over 1/2 acre of lushly landscaped property with mature trees in a private setting. An adorable white picket fence across the front yard really gives a nice buffer for children and pets! The front porch is especially pretty with shaker shingles and a tongue and groove ceiling. Rocking chairs are a must! A large back deck provides ample space for get togethers and additional living space! Walk barefoot past your very own wildflower garden, then throw on the boots and grab a few fresh eggs from the hen coop! An ivy covered workshop/garage is great for storage or to indulge in future hobbies! This home has a transitional vibe, so you could go ornate victorian, simple craftsman or artsy eclectic! A wonderful home, a fantastic investment and a true statement of personality!
