Welcome to this historic, early 1900's, multifamily home located on the heart of the ancient city. This property, once owned by Henry Flagler, was sold to Mr. JP Middlecoff where he had the home built as his winter residence including three working, wood fireplaces. Step inside and feel the calmness of the classic architecture of yesteryear. Enjoy the tranquility of relaxing on the front porch as you enjoy the morning paper or casual conversation. Tall ceilings, solid wood floors and distinct moldings create the large rooms which surround your family and friends with a peaceful feeling of simpler times. The owner's suite is located on the first floor with four additional bedrooms on the second floor and yet another bedroom on the third.
