Important to mention are also: a new roof with hurricane clips, water heater, washer and dryer, and new plumbing in the kitchen, both bathrooms, and utility room. (All four rooms have been re-piped.) Another big plus: the original vintage terrazzo floors beautifully grace each of the bedrooms and Florida room, as well as the rare chic original tiled bathrooms that exude character and charm.
