1417 East Jackson Street

Some homes are simply built. This one was crafted. Behind the front door of this 1903 East Hill residence, ten-foot solid wood pocket doors glide open as smoothly as the day they were hung. Original wood floors, in wonderful condition, run through most of the home beneath shiplap and wood ceilings, and there is a fireplace in nearly every room. The original windows remain in remarkable shape, dressed in plantation shutters, and even the original thermostats are still in place on the walls. The front porch has been freshly redecked and is waiting on a slow morning. All of it rests on two lots totaling a quarter acre in the heart of East Hill. After more than a century, this home still stands square and true — craftsmanship of a kind that is simply not built anymore. Offered as-is, and waiting on the right hands to bring these rooms into a modern floor plan while preserving everything that makes them irreplaceable. Come see it, and carry a piece of Pensacola forward.
