Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 1989
I purchased this property ten years ago and spent two full years restoring the 3 level structure and planting the tropical gardens. I was honored to have my property featured in the 2007 Historic Tour of Homes... I am also a local Realtor and Home Remodeler/Design Consultant. Began this career 30 years ago. Am always happy to offer insider tips on places to visit/good local restaurants, and have even showed real estate and sold homes to visiting guests! Quite a few have even become Regulars here and reserve a month annually. It's a real treat having Guests become Friends.
The Unique Benefits of this Duplex Residence
The tranquility of this huge garden property and its prime central location are unique attractions. The enormous size of the yard startles many guests. From the street, the property is unassuming. Most don't anticipate the scale of the yard or size of the structures. A special thrill for many is discovering all the visiting wildlife - whether seen roosting in the trees and drinking from the fountains... Hawks, owls, tropical parrots (escapees from the nearby Zoo), squirrels, hummingbirds, even an occasional fox or coyote have been spotted on the grounds.
