Property Description
Built in 1924, this stunning historic home is full of timeless character and charm while offering the space and comfort of modern living. Situated on over a quarter of an acre in the heart of Ormond Beach, this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath residence encompasses 2,393 square feet and is just one block from the scenic Halifax River. From the moment you arrive, you'll be captivated by the home's incredible curb appeal and distinctive three-story design. Enter into an inviting living room filled with abundant natural light, highlighted by a cozy fireplace and classic architectural details that showcase the home's history. The living area flows seamlessly into the dining room and kitchen, featuring solid wood cabinetry, ample workspace, and stainless steel appliances-including a refrigerator and range that are only 3 years old. The main level also offers an additional flex space, perfect for a home office, sitting room, or playroom (with new French doors being installed soon), along with a convenient half bath. Upstairs, you'll find three generously sized bedrooms, including an expansive primary suite complete with its own fireplace, walk-in closet, and an en suite bathroom featuring dual vanities, a soaking tub, and a walk-in shower. Continue to the third floor to discover a charming loft, lookout area, and turret. While this property still needs some TLC, it offers tremendous potential, and the heavy lifting has already been done for you: major updates include a complete home electrical rewiring (paid $55,000 in June 2026), a new upstairs air-conditioning unit installed in July 2026, updated windows throughout most of the home, and brand-new windows for the third-floor turret that are on-site and ready to be installed by the new owner. Perfectly blending historic charm with an unbeatable location, this one-of-a-kind property is just minutes from the beach, shopping, dining, parks, and entertainment. Homes with this level of character, history, and architectural appeal rarely become available, making this a unique opportunity to own a true piece of Ormond Beach history-with mortgage savings potentially available for buyers of this listing.
