Description

Step back in time with this charming 1840s Florida Cracker Cottage in Apalachicola's treasured Historic Southside. Situated on a corner lot just two blocks from Battery Park City Marina, this beautifully preserved 3BR/2BA home blends authentic historic character with thoughtful modern updates. Believed to date to the mid-1840s, the home is a classic example of Florida vernacular architecture, featuring heart pine floors, cypress fireplace mantels, wood walls and ceilings, and many original windows that reflect the craftsmanship of the era. The front of the home began as a traditional two-pin design with twin chimneys, and around 1900 an additional structure was incorporated, creating the larger home seen today while preserving elements of the historic dog-trot layout. Inside, historic warmth and character shine throughout the living and dining areas, anchored by the unique angled corner fireplaces that once served both rooms. The cottage kitchen is filled with natural light and efficient working triangle with gas stove and stainless appliances. The kitchen opens to the laundry room and back screened porch, then to the charming brick patio and fenced yard. The detached shed/garage offers flexible space for golf cart storage plus a studio ideal for writing, sewing, or a private office. Recent improvements provide peace of mind, including a new heat pump, tankless water heater, water softener system, attic insulation, and Miami-Dade rated hurricane shutters on all windows and doors. Additional updates include exterior painting, rebuilt fencing, upgraded plumbing, and newer appliances. Enjoy the best of Apalachicola living sitting on the shady front porch enjoying bay breezes, just two blocks from riverfront views at Battery Park, downtown shops and restaurants. Rarely does a property combine nearly two centuries of history, preserved architectural detail, and modern updates in such a walkable, historic location.
