Description

Your Florida home – with a sitcom legacy! Live where others vacation – in a home with Hollywood heritage. This charming single-family home in Englewood offers not only sunshine, beaches and space – but also a unique story: It was previously owned by Donald Martin, the son of Barney Martin – the actor who played Morty Seinfeld, Jerry's father on the legendary sitcom Seinfeld. So, take the chance and the rare opportunity to own a property that combines lifestyle, location and pop culture history. This three-bedroom, two-bathroom home sits on an expansive lot with lots of room for a pool and a tropical garden but you need to see the inside to appreciate this beautiful updated home. High ceiling, remodeled to a large open floor plan, a spacious kitchen that provides ample space of cabinets and counter space, tile flooring throughout the house, a striking wood-burning fireplace from the bottom to the ceiling, hurricane-rated windows, new screened-in front porch, large open deck in the fenced-in backyard. The garage was converted into a laundry room and a private gym. Beautifully remodeled, this solid-built home with its timeless character is also a great home for an investment and comes with potential rental income. Peaceful location in Rock Creek Park, just minutes from pristine sandy beaches, breathtaking Gulf sunsets, shopping and historic Englewood's Dearborn Street, nature preserves, golf courses and the relaxed spirit of the Sunshine State – all just a short distance away. Whether you're looking for a primary residence, vacation retreat or smart investment, this home has everything it takes to become the star of your story. Schedule your showing today – before someone else takes the leading role.
