Résidence Unifamiliale À West Palm Beach

Oh, so charming! This sunny blue 1938 Key West cottage in historic Flamingo Park is on an oversized lot with a detached two car garage. 2417 Lake Avenue is a lovingly updated and maintained property with the style of a bygone era. You enter from an adorable front porch right out of a storybook into the light and bright living areas with original Dade County Pine hardwood flooring. 3 full bedrooms and 2 full baths plus a Florida Room. Offered for the first time in over 20 years, this special home has lushly landscaped grounds with walkways of Old Chicago Brick, driveway of classic crushed shell rock and even a white picket fence. Live Oaks line the street and the yard has a gorgeous garden of tropical foliage, lovely lilies, hedges for privacy and mature trees - both Palms and Mahogany. Meticulously maintained by the current owners, this home boasts updates to give buyers peace of mind: The roof on the house is new in 2022 and was strapped for insurance savings and has double waterproofing and insulation for energy efficiency. The natural gas hot water heater is from 2023. Plumbing under the house is copper and electric is updated. Evenings are magical with landscape flood lighting and accent lighting on the carport and fencing. The home is on public water, but the property is irrigated with well water for savings and multiple zones for 100% coverage. Amazing opportunities for parking - even in addition to the two-car garage - as a lovely white pergola serves as a carport that can accommodate two cars and you have driveway access from both Lake Avenue and Sunset Road. The detached garage provides you with many options. Of course, you can put up to two cars in there and have tons of room for storage, but it is roomy enough to be used for an exercise studio, hobbies area or you can even carve out some space for a home office. One of the very best historic neighborhoods in all the area, Flamingo Park has old school charm with gorgeous architecture from the 1920s through the 1940s and hills from a coastal ridge that give it elevation and topography that is unusual in Florida. Even with the classic neighborhood feel, you are surprisingly close to downtown - an easy bike ride - and the waterfront and all that West Palm has to offer. You are only a few miles to the beach and Worth Avenue and less than that to the airport. You are blocks to top restaurants like Grato, Table 26 and Hive. Only about a mile to the Norton Museum and the Ann Norton Sculpture Gardens or the Armory Art Center and Howard Park. This neighborhood feeds to the ever-popular Palm Beach Public School on the island and you are also near private alternatives like the Greene School and Palm Beach Day Academy. The amazing shops along S. Dixie, great things to do, and a friendly atmosphere are just a few of the reasons why so many people love Flamingo Park.
