Experience the allure of timeless elegance with this rare Flagler Era gem boasting stunning river views! This stately home overlooks the Matanzas River, offering breathtaking panoramic views from every floor. Expanding over 4,000 square feet, this legal duplex features a first floor with a charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath unit complete with a gas fireplace, leaded glass cabinets, and captivating river views. The upper two floors serve as a family retreat, featuring 6 bedrooms and 5 full baths. Immerse yourself in the Victorian allure of the enchanting ''Fairy Room'', family room with built-in bookshelves and window seats, and expansive formal dining room with connecting modern kitchen. The third floor features a spacious room with kitchenette and the captivating ''Sky Room'', complete with time capsule and delightful cubbies. Step onto the third-floor balcony and deck to soak in panoramic views of the Bridge of Lions, the Lighthouse, and the South River. Designed by renowned architect Fred A Henderich in 1910, the home underwent meticulous restoration between 2010 and 2012. Led by Historic Homes specialist Elaine D'Arnold, the remodel included a replacement of the 100-year-old Cedar Shake exterior with new shakes, ensuring historical authenticity. The copper roof and gutters, about 20 years old, stand as rare, high quality features. With a garage equipped with a 10,000 LB lift and ample parking spaces, this bayfront beauty seamlessly blends historic charm with modern convenience.
