Historical grace and charm meets modern convenience in this Victorian treasure overlooking Apalaichicola's iconic Gorrie Square! Built in 1887, the two-story Shipke House was built by a sea captain, renovated by present owners in 2012 and beloved by all. History buffs will love the classic features of spacious rooms with high ceilings, original black cypress and heart pine woodwork, double fireplaces complete with vintage ‘preacher cabinets' built in beside the chimneys to keep items warm. Married with the modern conveniences updated in 2012 with a primary suite on the main level featuring a large sitting room, double fireplace, walk in closet, full sized laundry room, and en suite bath with walk-in shower and soaking tub. Bright and airy kitchen/sun room is designed for someone who loves to cook; custom cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless appliances, gas stove with hood, double oven, ice maker, all make cooking a joy. Gather around the island, settle in the sunroom or open to the shady back patio, this is a room for friends and family! The historic charm carries upstairs with three additional bedrooms and an artist's studio. The spacious front bedrooms offers a separate seating area nestled in the bay window. Full modern bathroom on the top floor has a walk in shower and custom tile work. Fully fenced yard is landscaped with historic azaleas under shady patriarch oaks and hickory. Covered parking off the alley way just steps to the back door and a 14 x 20 yard building provide outside storage. Lot 3 zoned R-1 residential, lot 4 zoned O/R office residential. Only 3 blocks to downtown Apalachicola and three blocks to the City Marina where the river meets the bay!
