Florida Village Craftsman with Spotless Interior, $244,000
Kandy Harris | December 3, 2015Want to stay within two hours of NYC and aren’t interested in traversing snowy mountain roads during the winter? The village of Florida is in Orange County and situated within the Black Dirt Region, so named for the rich soil responsible for its many onion crops. In other words, Florida is in farm country with a landscape dotted with fields, farmhouses, and, in the case of Florida village, cute small towns with historic architecture. This Craftsman, built in 1915, lives right in the heart of said village on over a half-acre of land. But it’s all about the pristine interior for us complete with original moldings, hardwood floors, and a large family room with soaring cathedral ceilings and big windows.
Includes nearly 1700 sq. ft. and 3 beds/2 baths plus a substantial backyard with patios and all kinds of room for outdoor play.
Fun Fact about Florida: William H. Seward, US Secretary of State during the Lincoln administration and purchase negotiator for a little state known as Alaska, was born in Florida. There’s a restoration effort underway to fix up and establish the Seward Homestead. Read more about that here.
