Nestled in desirable Goodwood Place, this home exudes charm and one-of-a-kind style. The stylish details are endless and include a beautiful BRAND NEW ROOF, front and rear courtyards, fountains and statuary, custom imported antique doors from Europe and New Orleans, hand painted stained glass windows, antique cypress cabinetry and leaded glass entry doors to name a few. The oversized living space is anchored by an exposed brick fireplace on one side and a bank of windows across the back allowing the natural light to flow into the home. The beautiful 50-year warranty hardwood floors are absolutely stunning and are carried throughout much of the living space. The kitchen is huge and features abundant storage space with floor to ceiling cabinetry, a large island, and room to eat at a table overlooking the beautiful backyard. The primary bedroom features his/hers separate bathrooms and walk-in closet spaces. Gardeners will rejoice upon seeing the amazing greenhouse and storage space just off the covered patio in the backyard.
