Own a piece of history with this Georgian style building. Built in 1915 as the corporate office for the world’s largest cypress mill at the time, The Burton-Swartz Cypress Mill, it has been renovated & expanded while converting it from an office to a home. This stately brick home has granite columns at the front entrance & features double glass & brass doors which came out of the original Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in NYC when it was torn down. Information passed down states that Mr. Swartz stayed at that hotel frequently & saw an opportunity to enhance the property the company was building in Perry, Fl. The front entrance overlooks an original 80’ diameter fish pond with the original fountain. The original office building now offers a large open formal living-dining room with a master bedroom & bath on one side & a guest bedroom, bath, loft serving as a bedroom, & the original walk-in vault which accommodates the laundry/walk-in closet. It features custom built cabinetry & offers lots of storage. Solid cypress 5’ high library paneling throughout this part of the home. Very tall windows provide lots of light. The ceilings are of pecky cypress & the floors in this portion of the home are the original cypress floors. There is an attic, approximately 1,200 sq. ft. with flooring above this original structure offering an abundance of storage! Enter into the casual living space through double glass doors where there is informal dining open to the kitchen which has an eat-at island, family room & half bath. Hickory custom built cabinetry in kitchen with pantry, wall oven-micro oven unit, drop-in range, frig, & dishwasher. There is a brick wall with a display case in this area.
