Description

Step into the Punta Gorda of another era, beautifully reimagined for today. Located at 617 W Olympia Avenue in Punta Gorda’s treasured Historic District, this distinctive 1950s residence blends mid-century Florida character with a thoughtful and perfect blend of the old and new renovations done right, all just three blocks from Gilchrist Park and the waterfront. If you love plants, you’re going to love living here! From the moment you arrive, the home feels connected to Old Florida. Mature tropical landscaping, shell accents, a red-brick walkway and patio, and classic architectural details create a setting that feels established rather than manufactured. Inside, approximately 1, 250 square feet of living space unfolds with the warmth and simplicity that make mid-century homes so appealing. Original terrazzo flooring provides a timeless foundation while extensive travertine tile, six-inch baseboards, crown molding, plantation shutters and carefully selected finishes bring a sophisticated modern edge. The renovated kitchen features granite countertops, new soft-close cabinetry and stainless-steel appliances, while a decorative-glass front door and frosted-glass interior doors add character and natural light. Two bedrooms, two beautifully updated baths and multiple living spaces provide surprising versatility. The spacious family room opens through sliding glass doors to the outdoor living areas, creating an easy indoor-outdoor connection that feels quintessentially Florida. A skylight brings natural light into the bath, while travertine finishes and updated cabinetry continue the home’s cohesive design. Outside may be where this property truly separates itself. A wooden pergola, red-brick patio, built-in seating, outdoor shower, gardening station, shell-covered backyard and mature Florida landscaping create a private, low-maintenance retreat with the relaxed atmosphere of an Old Florida garden. There’s even additional fenced parking for a boat, small RV or extra vehicles. Practical improvements haven’t been forgotten. A metal roof, electric hurricane shutters, rain gutters and low-maintenance landscaping add everyday convenience and storm readiness. A great flex space, the attached single-car garage has been finished with tile flooring, air-conditioning vents, a ceiling fan and window, offering functionality well beyond ordinary garage space. And then there is the location. Leave the car at home and rediscover the pleasure of living in historic Punta Gorda. Gilchrist Park and Charlotte Harbor are just three blocks away, placing waterfront sunsets, walking and biking paths and the character of downtown close to home. 617 W Olympia isn’t trying to imitate Old Florida. It is part of it. A carefully renewed mid-century home where terrazzo floors, tropical gardens and 1950s character meet the comfort and finishes of today. Call directly for your private showing.
