hitectural details leads to the second floor drawing room. Cypress paneling, fireplace and oversized windows that capture stunning views of boats passing through the Harbor accentuate this room. The master bedroom is also located on this level with a full bath that leads to two additional rooms ideal for extra closet and storage space. The third floor boasts two guest bedrooms each complete with their own full baths. Lush gardens, off street parking, and an in-ground pool complete this property. Known to locals as Mrs. Ann Boone's, it has been noted in history books that the north wall with its original stucco finish and arched staircase windows survived the fire of 1740 and are almost intact from its original construction. This a truly a rare opportunity to purchase a piece of history and make it your own.
