Description

A true Mid Century Marvel in Wauchula, Florida! This home was custom designed by renowned Architect firm Smith & Swilley, and was built in 1974 for former Judge Earl & Dr. Sylvia Collins. Complete comprehensive blueprints available on site. Situated on a rare 1+ acre parcel, encompassing a large portion of a city block, this property is only two blocks from charming downtown Wauchula, and a newer built Advent hospital just a few miles away. Property has a unique secluded feel, with the home nestled among many mature trees, and plantings. This home has most all original finishes, offering the perfect opportunity to redo to your desires, while preserving the existing stunning architecture. Entering the home, through the original beautiful solid wood door, the foyer greets you with a stunning crystal chandelier, and floor of vintage Saltillo tile. You will behold the large expanse of living area, tall 14" peaked ceilings, solid wood beams, step down living area with beautiful hard wood floors. A wall of sliding glass and picture windows facing the pool area integrates the indoors to the outdoors! The open expanse continues in the dining area and efficient kitchen. Please note the beautiful original copper range hood! Home has Three Bedrooms and a Bonus room off foyer, (which can be a fourth Bedroom, Den, office or Library and has built in mirrored desk/dresser alcove, wall of bookshelves, closets). From this room is a door to a hall bathroom. Down the hall there is a wall of storage cabinets with bifold doors on the right. There are two bedrooms with ample closet space, and another bathroom at end of hall. On the other side of the house, from the foyer, a door leads to the main bedroom. To the left is the bathroom, to the right are built in bookcases, then enter the large bedroom, which has tall windows with shutters and double closets. Off the kitchen area, there is a deck landing, steps down to concrete patio area. The large pool was re-marcited a few years ago, and recently acid washed and serviced. Excellent working order. Across from one end of the pool is your "tiki" hut bar area, with tiled countertops, roof, and has a sink and electric. The spacious backyard is fenced, has a basketball court, and a nice storage shed. The large carport can accommodate several vehicles and has a storage area. There are gates behind the carport to offer another access to the pool area, and steps up to the utility room off the kitchen. There are lots of possibilities to bring this home back to its grandeur. The Architect W.H. Smith was involved in many beautiful buildings throughout the country. Among them are the Science & Technology building USF, Tampa, Research Library UF Gainesville, Crystal Lake Jr. High, Edward A. Dewy Residence Lakeland, Owens-Corning S. Carolina, American Sugar Refinery, Imperial University Club, Lakeland Yacht & Country Club, Lakeland General Hospital Expansion, and so many more. Schedule your tour today!
