Property Description

For the first time in decades, this rare riverfront treasure on historic Riverside Drive in New Smyrna Beach is available—an authentic circa 1900 4BR/3BA home with riparian rights to a deepwater dock & boathouse (needs repair) just across the street. Perfectly positioned on a corner lot with a detached oversized 2-car garage (32x24), this charming property sits within the exclusive Bed & Breakfast Overlay Zone (allowing short-term rentals with a 2-night minimum)—a truly uncommon find on golf cart-friendly Riverside Drive. Step onto the covered front porch and enjoy the serenity of boats passing by and gentle ocean and river breezes, just four blocks from the vibrant Canal Street Historic District, where you can stroll or golf cart to shops, restaurants, breweries, art shows, and the weekly farmers market. The first floor boasts river views from the living room, dining room, kitchen, and sunroom—all of which open to wraparound porches and decks perfect for entertaining. Two spacious bedrooms and two full baths are conveniently located downstairs, along with a laundry/mudroom that opens to the rear courtyard and garage. The second floor features a private primary suite with panoramic river views and access to a large balcony overlooking the water, plus an additional guest bedroom, full bath, and a second kitchen with its own balcony and stairway to the courtyard—ideal for rental income or extended family. With original hardwood floors throughout, charming period details like French doors, tall windows, herringbone brick entry, and exposed roof rafters under a certified metal roof (10–15 years of life remaining), this home embodies timeless craftsmanship. The kitchen blends history with modern convenience, featuring wood cabinetry, stone countertops, and stainless-steel appliances. Just across the bridge, you’ll find the lively Flagler Avenue beachside district for more shopping, dining, and nightlife—all just minutes from your porch swing. With a transferable termite bond, a solid power grid near Advent Hospital, and endless possibilities to restore or reimagine a new home, this property offers both historic charm and unmatched location in the heart of coastal New Smyrna Beach living.
