616 SW Horry Avenue

Locally known as ‘Cherry Lake’ style, this 1948-built home in Madison FL features old-growth ¾” heart pine tongue and groove walls and ceilings, solid oak flooring, and hand-built kitchen cabinetry. It has been lovingly maintained and is in great condition. Built for quality and strength, the entire main floor and roof are sheathed in ¾” tongue and groove boards. The original double-hung wooden windows are still in perfect working order, protected by storm windows added early in the home’s life, and the three solid wood pocket doors are still functional. The home’s small footprint belies the 2340 square feet of living space it provides. The main floor bedrooms overlook the half-acre backyard where birds are a constant and deer are frequent visitors. The semi-finished walkout basement includes a comfortably sized bedroom with ensuite bath, a large laundry room and approximately 600 square feet of open space - perfect for a craft room, workspace, exercise room, etc. The 12x14 covered porch could easily be screened in to provide bug-free outdoor space or converted into a fourth bedroom or a four-seasons room. There are also two outbuildings on the property that can be used for storage. With the HVAC unit, water heater, kitchen appliances, and roof all about a year old, you can live in this gem worry free.
