About this Property
ORIGINAL MID CENTURY MODERN RETRO RANCH. No history of flooding. This is the mid-century home you've been waiting for, meticulously restored to preserve the charm of its era, with thoughtful modern upgrades throughout. 3 bedrooms and 2 baths with true vintage character preserved, solid block construction, split floor plan, spacious bedrooms, primary has an en-suite bathroom, three closets and pocket doors. Modern upgrades include a new electrical panel and mast (2023/2025), roof with hurricane clips (2023), hybrid heat pump water heater (2025), HVAC (2020), insulation and ductwork upgrades (2026), and a new Samsung kitchen and laundry suite with a four door refrigerator, dishwasher, steam clean washer and dryer (2026), recently renovated garage and hurricane shutters for peace of mind. Now for the fun part: original terrazzo floors, freshly ground and polished, beneath original plaster walls and coved ceilings. The kitchen still has its gold flecked Formica counters, aluminum trim, and 1950s General Electric wall oven. Above the kitchen sink, a fully restored 1959 NuTone combination wall clock and doorbell still keeps time nearly seventy years later. The shared bath holds onto its blue Crane sink, designed by noted industrial designer Henry Dreyfuss, surrounded by updated quartz countertops. The bathrooms keep their original atomic tile, complemented by blue and yellow sinks and tubs and original vanities. A Florida room closes up with a wall of floor-to-ceiling windows, keeping that indoor-outdoor feel the era does so well, the kind of light-filled space that makes a natural home for a plant collection or a quiet spot to sit and take in the yard. The home's original seven zone radiant heat, one per bedroom plus the kitchen, dining room, living room, and Florida room, still works. Xeriscape landscaping and a rare, mature 1950s croton greet you out front. 59th Way N is not a through street, an easy walk to Northwest Park, and minutes to shopping, downtown, the beaches, and I-275 to Tampa and Sarasota. The large backyard, on an oversized lot, is ready for a pool or garden of your own. Don't miss this one. There are not many of these left, especially in this pristine condition, a great find for the MCM enthusiast. Only the second owner! Reach out to schedule a showing.
