Description
Offered for the first time in 25 years, a charming DiVosta-designed corner lot home captures the relaxed coastal lifestyle of the Village of Tequesta. The fenced backyard is a private Florida retreat with a saltwater pool, paver decking, lush landscaping, outdoor shower, permitted shed, space for a fire pit, and boat or RV storage behind a gate and mature hedge. A 240-sq.-ft. screened patio expands the living area, with pocket-style pass-through sliders from the kitchen and primary bedroom. A quartzite serving counter connects the remodeled kitchen—featuring a raised ceiling, abundant soft-close cabinetry, pantry, and natural quartzite counters—to the porch. Hurricane-impact windows, panel shutters, and motorized roll-down hurricane screens add peace of mind. Tequesta charm at its best.> From the moment you arrive, the cottage -style exterior, coastal charm, and mature landscaping, create an inviting sense of home. Privacy-enhancing landscaping, especially in the back yard create a peaceful tropical oasis. Step inside and discover a warm, comfortable home. Originally one of D'Vosta's designs from the 1960's. this home reflects the quality and craftmanship of an earlier era, including the original marked roof rafters with Miami Dade Pine. The residence has been thoughtfully updated while retaining charm. The remodeled kitchen is both beautiful and exceptionally functional. The ceiling was raised, creating a greater sense of openness, while additional cabinetry and a pantry provide abundant storage. Cabinets feature soft-close doors and drawers, adding convenience to the well designed space. The countertops were crafted from a single slab of natural quartzite, providing a beautiful, durable surface with the distinctive character of natural stone. A pocketed window opens directly to the screened porch, creating an easy pass-through for entertaining. with a bar and seating on the porch side, the space naturally encourages conversation and gatherings with friends. The guest bathroom has also been thoughtfully updated, featuring a charming farnhouse-style sink and generous, counter space. Both bedrooms have brand new carpeting, creating a fresh, comfortable feeling throughout the sleeping areas. The primary bedroom offers a particularly appealing feature: a closet extending the length of the bedroom with organized storage within. The generous closet provides room for clothing, accessories and personal belongings while helping keep the bedroom itself peaceful and uncluttered. For additional peace of mind, the home is well protected for Florida's hurricane season. Hurricane windows have been installed throughout the home with the exception of the sliding glass doors. No worries as the porch is protected by hurricane reinforced screening that completes the whole house protection. The existing hurricane panels for the entire home are still available if desired. Outside, the property becomes a true Florida retreat. The saltwater pool was installed in 2006 and provides the perfect place to cool off, exercise, relax or entertain. surrounding pavers create an attractive outdoor setting while providing excellent drainage. The screen porch extends the living space and offers a wonderful transition between the interior of the home and the private pool area. Mature landscaping gives the backyard a feeling of a secluded tropical sanctuary. Imagine beginning the day on the screened porch with a cup of coffee and this tranquil view. This is the kind of outdoor living that makes South Florida so appealing. Practical features are equally impressive. a permitted shed beside the home provides additional storage for tools, recreational equipment, beach accessories and household items. there is also room beside the house for a boat or RV storage, offering valuable flexibility for owners who want to take advantage of the boating, fishing, beaches and outdoor recreation that define the Tequesta lifestyle.
