About this home
RARE OPPORTUNITY JUST OUTSIDE THE CITY OF BROOKSVILLE! Situated on the corner of one of Hernando County’s MOST SCENIC oak-canopy roads, Fort Dade Avenue, this charming 1950s home offers timeless character, thoughtful updates, and NEARLY A FULL ACRE of beautifully landscaped land. This four-bedroom, two-bath residence has been lovingly preserved by its longtime owner and features a 2022 ROOF, 2021 HVAC, UPDATED ELECTRIC 2009, and 2022 WATER HEATER. Additional improvements include a NEW VAPOR BARRIER and SPRAY-FOAM ATTIC INSULATION for added efficiency. The kitchen offers SOLID WOOD CABINETRY and opens to an adjoining dining room, while ORIGINAL WOOD FLOORING remains beneath the carpet throughout much of the home. The primary bedroom includes its own EN-SUITE BATH. Outside, enjoy the space and flexibility of NEARLY ONE ACRE with a DETACHED 2 CAR GARAGE, SHED, room to park an RV or boat, and NO HOA. A 16x12 GREENHOUSE provides the perfect place to start plants, garden, or continue cultivating the property’s established landscaping. Mature plantings include crape myrtles, fruit-bearing loquat trees, oaks, hydrangeas, amaryllis, and more. Located outside the flood zone, this property offers a peaceful setting with the convenience of nearby city amenities.
Local Insight
At $226/sqft for a 1950 home, you're getting solid value in Brooksville, though you'll want a thorough inspection given the age—roofs, plumbing, and electrical systems are real considerations here. The nearly acre lot and lack of HOA fees give you flexibility and room to breathe that you won't find in newer subdivisions, but that older construction means potential hidden costs that could eat into what looks like a bargain price. Location-wise, you're in a quieter, established residential area away from the commercial corridor, which appeals to some buyers but means you're further from shopping and services than you might expect.
