This beautiful Italianate-style 2-story home was built in 1925 during the John Ringling era. It is a rare find, nestled in a quiet, peaceful neighborhood and listed on the local registry of historic homes, it retains many of its original features. It has 4 bedrooms, 2 1/2 baths and will accommodate up to 7 people (8 if the port-a-crib is used). Three of the bedrooms (king, queen, and double) are on the second floor and one bedroom (twin) is on the first floor. There is a fully-equipped kitchen and laundry room, a large, open-air front porch, a back deck and a privately fenced patio with a charcoal/gas grill. Behind the property are 2 small, single person units with no shared common areas.
