Unique Opportunity with a Unique Property! Rare find in Oceanway, one of the first historic homes built completely by hand. PLUS, A BEAUTIFUL BUILDABLE LOT with its own septic and well already installed and ready for building! On the existing home, every single piece of wood in the house was hand cut and all double beamed, some 24 inches wide both top and bottom of the house. Old forest wood cut and hewn from trees right in Oceanway. Owner still has the hand tools that were used to build. When you walk in, it undeniably feels like a tank, built to outlast and well insulated. Deep aquifer well with less than two-year pump system. Septic system recently installed, owner to provide more information and inspection report to buyer. With a SOLID house and a buildable lot with its own septic and well, this is a rare find, and an excellent opportunity for you to buy today!!! And with all the northside advantages, close to the airport, northside shopping centers, downtown and surrounding area
What to check on this one
- Verify flood zone designation and obtain elevation certificate if in AE/VE zone
- Request septic system installation date, permit, and full inspection report
- Confirm well pump age (stated <2 years) and water quality test results
- Get 4-point inspection and wind-mitigation report—1944 home likely uninsurable without
- Verify roof age and current insurance carrier acceptance
- Have plumber inspect for polybutylene or cast-iron plumbing; expect replacement costs
Flagged from the listing itself — not an inspection, and no substitute for one. Bring these to the showing.
