This adorable 1940s bungalow in Pensacola's Lakewood area features 3-beds, 2-baths and 1,100 square feet of updated living space just 3 miles from downtown Pensacola, 5 miles from NAS Pensacola, 12 miles from Pensacola Beach, and steps from Bayou Chico. Original hardwood floors run throughout, and the kitchen and baths have been updated with granite countertops, a marble primary shower, and a triple reverse osmosis water filtration system under the kitchen sink, plus filtration on the primary shower. The guest bathroom features a large, deep soaking tub and the guest hall has built-in linen cabinets. Stainless steel appliances complete the kitchen, along with a mosaic glass tile backsplash. The living area includes vaulted ceilings and built-in shelving, and a bright sunroom offers flexible bonus space. Major systems have been recently updated: a new roof was installed after Hurricane Sally, the home has a new 40-gallon electric hot water heater, a new HVAC system, a termite bond, and a documented wood rot inspection with repairs completed. Outside, an outdoor shower and a fire-pit patio sits shaded under mature oak, magnolia, and peach trees, all part of a .22-acre lot that's a certified wildlife habitat filled with edible and medicinal landscaping: two peach tree varieties, two fig tree varieties, two pineapple guava trees, three blueberry bushes, an ice cream banana tree, beauty berry bushes, pollinator flowers, and an abundance of herbs. Ornamental plantings include crepe myrtle, maple, live oak, magnolia, gardenias, azaleas, irises, day lilies, blue daze morning glories, and sea breeze grasses, all maintained on a full Rain Bird irrigation system. A jasmine-covered fence lines the front, with a privacy fence along the sides and back, and a 150-square-foot chicken coop.
