About this home

Under contract-accepting backup offers. A perfect combination of preserved Florida cottage charm and practical updates make this property truly one-of-a-kind. 1602 18th Ave W is a beautifully maintained 1947 bungalow providing comfortable, move-in-ready living oozing with timeless character. An inviting screened front porch welcomes you inside, where you will immediately notice the beautiful brick fireplace surrounded by built-in bookshelves. The updated kitchen (2013) features custom cabinetry and stone countertops, while the remodeled bath (2013) adds to the home’s refreshed appeal, all while preserving the character and warmth that make this vintage home so special. A nearly new metal roof (2025) adds peace of mind, and double-pane windows (2010) with hurricane shutters offer additional protection. HVAC and Hot Water Heater also replaced within the last 5 years! Outdoors, enjoy a spacious, beautifully landscaped backyard oasis with a newly installed privacy fence. The screened rear porch offers additional space to relax, with potential for future expansion.
