Coldwell Banker Residential Real Estate’s Ingrid Livingston Lists Restored 1935 Colonial
Winter Park, FL (February 11, 2016) – Coldwell Banker Residential Real Estate recently listed an exclusive estate in the Forest Brook neighborhood in Maitland at $324,000. Located at 608 Brookwood Lane, this historic home includes four bedrooms and three bathrooms.
“The estate is a truly unique property,” said Realtor Ingrid Livingston. “This classic home was originally owned on 80 acres of farmland. Throughout the decades, the colonial has been carefully maintained and the family history respected.”
The 2,572 square-foot home was built in 1935 by C.H. Galloway, Sr., the founder of the Winter Park Telephone Company. The home remained in the care of the Galloway family for nearly four decades where the family farm flourished, children played around the oak tree, and the family enjoyed quiet nights on the front porch.
It is documented that the Galloway farm continued to operate until the mid-1960’s, when the property changed family ownership. At the time of the farm, a creek surrounded the family’s active orange grove while the remaining property was used to care for livestock and crops of sugar cane, strawberries, and corn. Rich in family history, the home has been restored to its original condition.
The charming two-story home now sits on nearly one-quarter acres of property, surrounded by a white picket fence and shaded by a mature oak tree, the same tree that the Galloway children played under decades ago.
Entering the home, visitors are greeted in the living room with the original fireplace and tile hearth from 1935. Meticulously maintained oak and hearty pine flooring covers the home and greets original wide baseboards, doors, and hardware. Crown molding wraps around the home’s 9-foot ceilings and beautifully compliments the large windows and French doors.
The home also features a second floor master suite with a large walk-in closet and views of the oak tree. Large windows allow an abundance of natural light in each of the home’s four spacious bedrooms.
