Description

Timeless Elegance Meets Modern Peace of Mind
Step back in time without sacrificing comfort in this enchanting circa 1900 estate. Nestled on a sprawling 1.3-acre lot, this property offers the rare combination of storied ''Old Florida'' charm and the reliability of a modern home. Over the past 11 years, the residence has undergone a comprehensive mechanical evolution, including complete replumbing, rewiring, new HVAC, and updated insulation, ensuring efficiency and longevity.

The Main Residence

The heart of the home is a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom sanctuary defined by unmatched character and artisan details.

The Gourmet Kitchen: A true conversation starter featuring a rare 1920s gas stove and an authentic French kitchen sink dating back to the late 1800s. A central island provides the perfect prep space for morning coffee or evening gatherings. Living Spaces: Multiple fireplaces anchored throughout the home provide warmth and architectural interest, leading you into the sun-drenched Florida room.

Dining & Views: Enjoy the golden hour from the built-in dining bench, where massive windows invite an abundance of natural light and views of the lush acreage.

The Carriage House & Outdoor Oasis

Just a short stroll away--connected by a convenient carport--sits the stunning carriage house. This guest retreat features gorgeous finishes and a cozy, built-in nook designed specifically for quiet reading sessions or afternoon naps.

The transition between the structures serves as an entertainer's dream, offering a covered area for alfresco dining or sheltered gatherings. The outdoor experience is completed by a private outdoor shower--perfect for rinsing off after a day in the sun--and a heated pool (installed within the last 8 years) that allows for year-round swimming.

Property Highlights:

Turn-Key Historic Living: Original architectural soul with a fully updated infrastructure (Plumbing, Electrical, AC).

Expansive Acreage: 1.3 acres of privacy and mature landscaping.

Versatility: A main home full of history paired with a contemporary, stylish carriage house for guests or a home office.

Building is 3164 sq. ft., total heated and cooled sq ft of main house and carriage house is 2266.

Experience the perfect marriage of turn-of-the-century craftsmanship and modern luxury.

    "The neighborhood is quiet and well maintained. It is also close to all of the shops in town. Many are within walking distance."
  • Clover062
    "Many of the homes were built on large lots or come with acreage. You do not see many people walking their dogs around the neighborhood probably because they have lots of land for their dogs to run free. "

    "There is no public transportation available in the area. Owning your own vehicle would make getting around much easier. "

    "Located about 10 miles from downtown Palatka and 20 miles from St. Augustine, Federal Point is definitely "in the sticks", which has its good points and its not so good points. Good-- quiet, little traffic (but there are speeders), wildlife, friendly people, river views, library and post office close by in Hastings (about 5-6 miles away). Not so good-- No shopping really close except for the Dollar store in Hastings, schools are in Palatka. No public transportation; no sidewalks. Speeding vehicles. But, hey, it's a little bit of heaven out here!"
