It's the house you always admire as you pass by on your way from town to Vilano Beach and where you wonder what exactly lies behind that courtyard wall and iron gate. Well, it''s a classic 1920s Mediterranean Revival sitting high above the street waiting to entice you with original details and a sunny floorplan so you won''t be disappointed. The property fronts on May Street with the entry set back from the wall but come around to E San Carlos and enter through the garden with the fragrant citrus. This era called for generous rooms and so they are. A large eat-in kitchen opens to the central living room and corner dining room (this was previously the 3rd bedroom and with French doors would be again) so the flow is easy for gatherings of all sizes. Natural light streams in the tall windows illuminating the interior and showcasing the patterned wood floors running throughout. At the front entry there's an office tucked out of sight so you can be as organized as you choose with the door closed! The 13' x 7' foyer has Spanish tile decorating the doorway and a set of French doors lead to the living room. The 330SF master suite has both a bedroom and "Florida" sun room plus walk-in closet and private vintage bath. The spacious second bedroom has good wall space for furniture placement and the hall bath is two steps away. The bathroom detail is fantastic: wonderful Art Deco fixtures, original hexagonal floor tile and very cool wall tile. The dining room is at the end of this hall so it's an easy conversion to a third bedroom if you need the room. Circular flow of public rooms naturally flows out to the back porch and out to the patios and yard while sleeping rooms enjoy their privacy. Two patios converge between the back of the house and detached garage with ample room for grilling, seating and don't forget to bring the fire pit. It's an easy jaunt to Vilano for beach, groceries and dining and a 10-minute walk along San Marco dotted with shops, eats and then you're downtown!
