About 444 Driftwood Rd
This well-maintained 1,800-square-foot home offers a peaceful and private setting, minimizing traffic and enhancing the sense of retreat. Perfect for those seeking tranquility in their daily lives. The split floor plan which is functional and inviting boasts three bedrooms and 2.5 baths, is ideal for families or anyone who values distinct living spaces. Upgrades include 2024 re-roof, 2024 water heater and 2023 air conditioner. The fact it’s not in a flood zone is a bonus in Florida, providing peace of mind. The terrazzo floors throughout tie into the mid-century aesthetic, offering durability, low maintenance and that iconic speckled look that’s retro and timeless. The formal living room and dining room create dedicated spaces for entertaining or relaxing which is ideal for unwinding with a movie after a day at the beach. The spacious kitchen at the heart of the home is designed for efficiency with extra cabinetry and room for a café table or bakers rack making it a practical yet charming space for cooking and serving those special meals. The primary suite is an owner’s paradise featuring a large walk-in closet and a private en suite that elevates comfort and convenience. The second bedroom, at front of the house also includes a walk-in closet, making it a great option for guests or additional family and near the second full bath making this a modern convenience for family and guests. The third bedroom, at the rear of the home, is versatile enough to double as an office or added space for a blended family, adding flexibility to the home’s layout and near the half bath. The large enclosed Florida room at the back is a standout feature, offering endless possibilities whether as an extra dining space, a second entertainment room or a sunny spot to relax with a view of the large backyard. The laundry room adds everyday practicality, keeping household chores tucked away yet accessible. The outdoor space is a major asset, providing plenty of room for gardening, play or simply soaking in the Florida lifestyle. This home is a rare find, blending mid-century character with modern functionality, all in a prime location. This home benefits from the area’s laid-back coastal vibe, proximity to beaches with just a short drive to the Gulf and a charming downtown with shops and dining.
