440 S Waukeenah Street

Recently restored c. 1901 stunner in the heart of historic Monticello, Florida. This property has been renovated to provide modern comforts while preserving the period details that make it special. The main hall welcomes you with 9-foot ceilings, 10-inch baseboards, chair rail, and crown moldings. The entry’s focal point is a transom|sidelight combination allowing light to filter through the 8-foot wide main hallway. Upon entry, two nicely sized bedrooms with large windows and brick fireplaces are situated off the main hall to the right. On the left, the primary bedroom accesses an en-suite and walk-in closet, also accessible from the main hall. The primary bath features a double vanity flanked by custom built-ins, a separate water closet with a pocket door, and a spacious walk-in shower. Kitchen updates include new stainless steel appliances, soft-close, solid plywood cabinetry, leathered granite countertops, and a period-appropriate farmhouse sink. Other turn-key improvements include a new metal roof (meeting current FL wind mitigation standards), extensive plumbing and electrical updates throughout, a new water heater, luxury vinyl plank flooring, and fresh paint inside and out. Rare two city lots combined for .65 acres within Monticello’s city limits a few blocks walking distance to downtown shops and restaurants.
