So, take the chance and the rare opportunity to own a property that combines lifestyle, location and pop culture history. This three-bedroom, two-bathroom home sits on an expansive lot with lots of room for a pool and a tropical garden but you need to see the inside to appreciate this beautiful updated home.

The garage was converted into a laundry room and a private gym. Beautifully furnished and decorated, this solid-built home with its timeless character is also a great home for an investment and comes with potential rental income. Peaceful location in Rock Creek Park, just minutes from pristine sandy beaches, breathtaking Gulf sunsets, shopping and historic Englewood's Dearborn Street, nature preserves, golf courses and the relaxed spirit of the Sunshine State – all just a short distance away.
