Completely reimagined and beautifully restored, this charming 1939 New Smyrna Beach home offers the perfect blend of historic character and modern upgrades. This one-bedroom, two-bathroom property has just undergone a full studs-in renovation, meaning virtually everything is brand new while maintaining the charm of an original beachside cottage. The extensive renovation includes new electrical, all new lighting, closed-cell foam insulation, new doors and windows, new flooring, and two beautifully designed bathrooms, including one featuring a relaxing jetted tub. The kitchen has been completely rebuilt with quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and stylish modern finishes. A newly added loft with drop-down attic stairs provides additional flexibility and storage, while LED recessed lighting throughout and a three-zone mini-split A/C system keep the home comfortable year-round. Situated on a spacious corner lot directly across from a large community park offering tennis courts, pickleball, basketball, a skateboard park, squash courts, and more, the location is exceptional. Just a few blocks from New Smyrna Beach's vibrant downtown filled with shops, restaurants, and local charm, approximately one mile from the Intracoastal boat ramp and marina, and only 2.5 miles to the beach, this property offers the ultimate coastal lifestyle. The oversized city lot is a rare find and provides ample space to build a large shop, bar, or guest house if desired. Outdoor living has been thoughtfully enhanced with more than $35,000 invested in paver driveways, walkways, and patios. There is also a fenced area on one side of the property and three storage sheds, one of which was designed to serve as a future outdoor bath house for a hot tub area and is ready for plumbing. Perfect for those who love the idea of a tiny home lifestyle with room to expand, this home is cute, quaint, completely updated, and truly move-in ready -- essentially a brand new old house in one of New Smyrna Beach's most desirable locations.
