The front porch is the perfect perch to people watch in this single family home neighborhood. There are not any guest houses or commercial businesses in the area. A few of the large older homes were converted to condominiums several years ago, but the character remains single family. I don't think this house is on the Conch Train route, but you should expect to see an eager tourist on bike every once in a while.
The listing Realtor describes the home this way:

While the house may look old on the outside, everything on the inside looks and smells like new - brand new. Of course the interiors pay homage to yesteryear but are planned for modern living.
Just to the right off the front entry is a good sized guest bedroom with en-suite bath. Note the stylish new Nickle Grooved Walls contrasted by Dade County Pine walls and clear hardwood flooring.There are window views to the front and side. Unlike some of the renovated houses in Old Town, the ceilings are high, the room size is actual comfortable living space.
I am presenting this house to my reders the same way I saw it. I checked out the first floor buest bedroom and moved toward the open living area. I sensed how large the house is, then notice the coffered ceilings in the living room, a feature I did not recall from the MLS. Two competing features called for my attention - the pool and bright white kitchen, I confess I walked out side, looked at the pool, parking, and guest cottage. I stood at the edge of gthe pool and looked at the side and rear of thehouse. I was impressed more than before. Viking Kitchen Package include. The real range is on the way.
The second guest bedroom with en-suite is located at the front of the second floor. HARC has this disposition to disallow full two story homes in area where they are not predominate. Here, the allowed the designed to create the fiction this new house looks like a house where front and rear dormers were added to increase living space. This bedroom is located iin the front fake dormer. The height and size are not effected.
The master suite takes up more than half of the second floor, or so it appears. The bedroom is huge. the two chairs seem dwarfed in real life. Imagine that space with lush rugs on the floors and art on the walls. The ceiling height in all rooms, but especially here, is welcoming to a tall man. So many of the renovations in Old Town require tall men to duck when moving about and to kneel a bit when taking a shower. Not so here. The bath is located in the "rear" dormer. It is huge. Dual sinks, WC, shower, bath, and outfitted closet plus windows to let the light of the outside world in.
