Description

Under contract-accepting backup offers. Just one block from Dearborn Street, this oversized corner-lot bungalow puts you in the heart of Downtown Englewood's most charming district - lined with sidewalks, coffee shops, boutiques, local restaurants, farmers markets, seasonal festivals, car shows, and all the small-town energy people move here for. FRESHLY PAINTED inside and out with a 2023 ROOF, this 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom home may be modest in size, but it's heavy on character. ORIGINAL WINDOWS and authentic MEXICAN CLAY TILE floors bring warmth and nostalgia you simply can't replicate. The open loft ceiling enhances the sense of space, while natural light pours into the expansive bonus room - a flexible area ideal for an ART STUDIO, creative workspace, or potential additional sleeping area. The galley kitchen offers efficient function with a cozy dinette space, keeping everything simple and intentional. Out back, a separate shed houses the washer and dryer, while a small paved and fenced courtyard creates a PRIVATE outdoor retreat. To the right of the home, a large grass yard with towering pine tree offers plenty of room for pets, gardening, or simply enjoying the Florida sunshine. Because this property is located within the RCTOD (Residential/Commercial Transitional Overlay District), it offers more than just charm - it offers flexibility. This designation opens the door to potential live/work use, small business opportunities and long term value all within Englewood's most desirable corridors. Other community staples within walking distance include Englewood Elementary, The Women's Club of Englewood, Publix, Orange Street Park (tennis courts, basketball, playgrounds), Indian Mound Park on Lemon Bay and the Elsie Quirk Library!
