Designed in 1955 by architect Dillard Duff, this meticulously restored 2,000-square-foot home, in one of Flamingo Park's finest blocks, features 3 spacious bedrooms, 3 full skylit baths and an industrial-style kitchen that have all been renovated to retain the home's mid-century flair.The attention to detail in the house's restoration is amazing: new PGT custom impact windows, with mill-finish aluminum casings and muntins (designed to mirror the home's original awning windows of 1955) and gorgeous terrazzo and white oak floors restored to their original luster. The property's structure is solidly built with Dade County pine framing, cement block construction, and smooth stucco finish. The renovation designs were praised and appreciated by West Palm Beach's Historic Preservation. Complete with a lushly landscaped backyard and a new 15-by-35-foot swimming pool, carefully scaled and designed to feel as if it has always been a part of the residence. Outside, a grove of coconut trees, clusia hedges, sea grapes and rare frangipani trees create a private retreat. In addition, a hot-cold outdoor shower can be found nestled within this secret garden. This rare Flamingo Park home is truly something special. The backyard space can be transformed to include a pool house, guest suite, master suite or whatever the heart desires. Additionally, the separate office and laundry room could be converted into a fourth bedroom or home gym. The home sits on one of the highest residential lots in Palm Beach County; 17 feet above sea level on a natural ridge, no flood insurance required.All new electrical, plumbing, central a/c, custom cabinetry, European induction appliances and tile roof. Toto toilets and washlet bidets in every bathroom. Brand new complete-home natural gas Generac generator permitted to be installed in early 2023. Within walking distance to The Norton Museum of Art, Intracoastal Waterway and downtown West Palm Beach.
