Discover the irrepressible charm of the renowned house on the corner of South and Blanco Streets, where every passerby stops to admire the architectural detail and exceptional setting. As you approach, the unique coquina block construction catches your eye, drawing you along the walkway. The expansive thirty two foot front porch, an all-season Florida room, invites you to relax with a coffee, cocktail, or meal. Its a versatile space perfect for entertaining, chatting with neighbors, checking messages, or simply doing nothing at all. A deep overhang keeps you dry should an errant rain shower pass by.

To the left, a sunny bedroom shares a hallway bath with your dinner guests. To the right, the living room features two walls of windows, filling the space with soft, diffused natural light.
