The Cypress House is a charming country home about two miles north of historic Apalachicola along the Florida panhandle coast. Built with old-growth cypress recovered from the Apalachicola River and heart pine, the home features the work of local craftsmen with custom cabinets and a huge countertop of black cypress. The open floor plan has a large fireplace with ballast stones. The spacious kitchen is ideal for entertaining. One bedroom and bath are located downstairs. Master bedroom and bath are upstairs with a reading area/double bed on the landing. Immense covered decks surround the home expanding the living area. This one-of-a-kind home is set on a wooded lot in a quiet area near the Apalachicola River. Currently used as a vacation rental home. Must see to appreciate!
