    Some homes are built. Others become part of the story of a town. Welcome to 54 Plateau Avenue, a beautiful circa 1900 home in the heart of historic DeFuniak Springs, just one block from Lake DeFuniak and Lake Yard. This is the kind of home that makes you slow down, notice the old trees, pour another cup of coffee and fall in love with small town Southern living. Inside, gorgeous hardwood floors, crown molding, plantation shutters, built ins, a fireplace and timeless architectural details give this home something you simply cannot recreate. It has character, history and a soul all its own. And honey, the porches. Morning coffee on the screened porch. Long conversations that last past sunset. Out back, a private deck overlooks the fenced half acre yard, complete with a putting green and room to gather, garden, play or simply breathe. With the lake and downtown just moments away, you are not simply buying a house. You are stepping into a piece of DeFuniak Springs history and getting the chance to write the next chapter for this address.
