Located in the desirable Kay/Catherine neighborhood, you are just a short stroll to the beaches, mansions, Cliff Walk & Downtown restaurants/shopping. This well-appointed, turnkey home has been lovingly updated and maintained by the current owners since purchasing it in 1996. This home maintains many original details yet has undergone numerous recent updates including a brand-new custom designed kitchen in 2024. The large 10,400 square foot lot is hard to come by in the area and provides serenity and seclusion from the world as well as a home to a variety of song birds that frequent it. The property is actually comprised of three lots that were merged years ago however, with frontage on both Gibbs Ave and Findley Place and such a large developable footprint, this property provides a great array of future uses. In addition to the beautiful new kitchen, the first floor includes a spacious living room, formal dining room, a large walk in pantry, 2 bedrooms and a full bathroom. The second floor features 3 additional bedrooms, a full bathroom, and an office/6th sleeping space. Enjoy the summer month in your enormous private back yard and showering off from the beach in the outdoor shower and the winter months sitting by the working fireplace in the front living room. Off street parking for 2 could easily be expanded.
