The story
This classic and ultra-charming 1920s Old Spanish bungalow sits on a prime Coral Gables street, close to the Granada Golf Course, Coral Gables Country Club, Birdie’s Bistro, and just 15 minutes by Uber from Miami International Airport. Issued Coral Gables Building Permit #2228 in the early 1920s and originally designed by architect C.K. Baylis, the home is not currently historically designated but could be a strong candidate. If designated, it may be eligible for special building allowances under Coral Gables Article XXIX Section 29, “Coral Gables Cottage Regulations,” and could also qualify for tax reductions. The property is full of charming original features like hardwood floors, a Portuguese tile entry porch, a three-masted clipper ship medallion above the fireplace, and a heraldic coat of arms medallion on the exterior. Significant upgrades include a new roof in 2022, new PVC plumbing, and new central air in 2021. 1 car garage plus a carport. This is a great opportunity to own a character-filled home in one of Coral Gables’ most desirable neighborhoods, with plenty of potential for expansion to create your dream home.
