This custom-built home in the highly desirable Fullerwood neighborhood is a tropical paradise nestled in a wooded marsh overlooking a tributary of the Intracoastal Waterway. This unique home at 18 Althea Street is a three bedroom, two bath offering an open floor plan, vaulted ceilings and beautiful bamboo flooring throughout the living and kitchen areas. The master bedroom enjoys a private deck with hot tub. The third bedroom is non-conforming and currently used as an office. Both bathrooms have been upgraded with gorgeous vessel sinks, rain shower heads and newly installed bidet toilets. The kitchen is beautifully finished in maple cabinets, granite counter tops and a solid, extra-large granite sink. All interior doors are custom designed out of Knotty Alder and Mahogany. The expansive third floor loft has been used as a family gathering place as well as a contemplative quiet area surrounded by beautiful wrought iron and 100-year-old heart pine flooring repurposed from a distillery in Tennessee. This entire home is surrounded by wrap around decks with three staircases for ease of access to the upper levels. Underneath the home is protective parking for 4 automobiles and an air-conditioned storage and woodworking shop. The main outside deck is perfect for entertainment and daily viewing of great egrets, spoonbills and woodstorks.
