Welcome to the Craven House! This Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired, architect-designed, mid-century modern landmark—is one of Chipley's most recognizable historic residences. Originally built in the 1960s for Dr. James B. And Virginia Craven, this National Register property was designed to evoke a bird in flight, with bold horizontal lines, sculptural geometry, and a seamless connection to nature. Featuring 4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths and bonus room, this residence retains the charm of its original mid-century architecture, beautifully preserved throughout. Interior features include wood ceilings, stone accents, an oversized living room with wood-burning fireplace and original built-ins, dining room with a full wall of windows, and a kitchen retaining its original cabinetry and authentic mid-century layout. All 3 full bathrooms showcase original tile, wallpaper, and built-in vanities, offering an untouched period aesthetic rarely found today. Significant updates include plumbing throughout, electrical panels (3-phase), two HVAC systems (5-ton 2016, 3-ton 2017), water heaters, encapsulated crawl space, and a shingle roof installed in 2018. The exterior boasts an attached 2-car carport, massive, screened back porch, 24′ saltwater pool with decking, and a solar-powered entry gate. Don't miss your rare opportunity to steward an iconic piece of mid-century architecture—livable art preserved with extraordinary care.
