Rich in history, natural beauty and architectural diversity, Lighthouse Park is one of our most treasured neighborhoods. A small enclave of interesting homes with fascinating pedigrees, 9 Holly Lane brings her own story to the table. Starting out around 1910 as part of the US Navy Wireless Station a few blocks away, the house was moved to its present site in 1959 where it became a private residence. In 2004, the house was set atop a new double garage and Florida room facing the brand new pool. A little path leads you to the side entry and you step into the Florida room flooded with natural light. A wall of windows overlooks the pavered pool pavilion made private by a courtyard wall on three sides. Sparkling blue water cools you down and the outdoor shower will get plenty of use. This downstairs room is extremely versatile - a casual gathering area, a poolside party space, a quiet spot to catch the morning sun. Honey hued wood stairs take you to the main living area where a bank of windows look out at Salt Run between the palm fronds and you can't help but feel the sense of calm this house exudes. A seating area at the top of the stairs bids you to open a book or power up the tablet and enjoy a good read. The dining room is just beyond, along the same wall of glass. It's such a pleasant room that you'll want to stay home for dinner and the kitchen promises to inspire your culinary muse to great heights. Original pine floors complement white Mission cabinetry with reflective slag glass doors and crisp black granite with golden flecks. A gas Viking stove across from the butcher block island makes for easy prep work. The living room offers another welcome place to visit with friends or take in a movie. The south guest room enjoys a screened porch looking across the lane. The north bedroom has a peek of the water and these two rooms are separated by the modern hall bath with lovely tile work in the shower. Supremely private on the third floor, the treetop master is exquisite in its simplicity. A large room with great windows, it has captivating water views. A bit of brick detail from the old chimney adds additional architectural texture. The bath is equally appealing with its soaking tub and separate shower. There's a laundry closet up here and another in the huge garage. So much storage down there and a half bath serves the pool. This is a magic house in a very special spot in a beloved neighborhood. Listen closely - is it calling your name?
