Property Description

Timeless 1929 farmhouse charm meets an unbeatable Dunlap location! Situated on a spacious 6,000-square-foot lot with alley access, this sunny and inviting home offers a detached garage, possible boat or trailer parking, mature magnolia trees, and plenty of level lawn for play, gardening, or entertaining. Just one block from Be'er Sheva Park with its playground, beach access, and boat launch, and moments from the trail leading to Pritchard Beach, this location is a dream for outdoor enthusiasts. The ideal floor plan features four bedrooms and two baths, including three generously sized bedrooms upstairs with oversized closets and a main-floor bedroom and bath for added flexibility. SIGNIFICANT updates include new roof, siding, windows, exterior doors and fence. Original hardwood floors, arched doorways, a period fireplace, and built-in bookcases showcase the home's character and craftsmanship. The spacious living and dining rooms flow seamlessly into the updated kitchen featuring stainless steel appliances and granite countertops. A convenient kitchen door provides easy access to the backyard for indoor-outdoor living. Flooded with natural light throughout, this move in ready home offers the perfect blend of historic charm, functionality, and an exceptional neighborhood lifestyle.
