Property Description

Step into the timeless charm of Historic Fernandina Beach with this beautifully preserved circa-1891 Victorian home in the heart of the Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Just blocks from Centre Street, boutique shopping, waterfront dining, the marina, and Amelia Island's year-round festivals, this remarkable home blends historic craftsmanship with modern comfort. Offering more than 2,200 square feet, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home showcases original heart pine floors, soaring 12-foot ceilings with crown molding, dramatic floor-to-ceiling parlor windows, and a stunning 21-riser hand-hewn staircase. Built using innovative balloon-frame construction, the home was designed for beauty and longevity. The historic dog-walk (dogtrot-style) interior passage reflects its architectural heritage, while the remodeled kitchen and adjoining living area provide an inviting space for everyday living and entertaining. Thoughtfully updated with renovated marble baths, natural gas, a tankless water heater, water softener, new roof (2023), new irrigation system (2024), and attic roof clips for added structural resilience. Located outside a FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area. More than 30 windows feature custom plantation shutters, while the screened porch overlooks brick patios, mature landscaping, a spacious garden/storage shed, and an original cistern beneath the home. Historic homes offering this level of authenticity, thoughtful updates, and an unbeatable downtown location rarely become available. Own a remarkable piece of Fernandina Beach history just moments from the waterfront, restaurants, shops, and the Amelia Island lifestyle.
