All plumbing, foundation and electrical systems were replaced. Metal roof, on demand tankless water heaters and HVAC were added. Walls and ceilings throughout are tongue and groove cypress. Open the front door and you are greeted with a 26 foot long dog-trot hallway leading to not only the bedrooms and living areas, but an amazing 30 foot long screened in back porch. All wood flooring, doors and windows are original to the house. High ceilings, clawfoot tub, utility room, upstairs media room/game room, plenty of natural light and so much more await you in this rare offering.
