407 Driftwood Avenue

Canal-to-River Living with 100 Feet of Private Waterfront

Warm Welcome & Everyday Living
Step through the solid wood front door into a blend of timeless mid-century character and modern-day upgrades. The front room welcomes you with a large bay window that fills the space with natural light, tile flooring underfoot, and an effortless flow into an adjacent dining area—ideal as a flex space or home office. The formal living room features textured green slate flooring and a graceful archway leading into the dining space, all illuminated by low-profile, art deco-inspired fixtures.

A Kitchen That Works Beautifully
The fully reimagined kitchen strikes a perfect balance of style and function. Walnut cabinetry, quartz countertops, and recessed lighting set the tone, while thoughtful additions like a built-in pantry with pullouts, floating display shelves, and a dedicated coffee bar add practicality. Appliances include a Samsung range, Samsung microwave, stainless dishwasher, and a retro-style blue City Chill refrigerator. A stainless-steel sink with filtered instant hot and cold water sits beneath a window overlooking the river. A half-moon glass tile backsplash and dual lazy Susans bring both texture and smart storage to the space.

Casual Comfort in the Florida Room
Anchoring the back of the home, the Florida room offers a cozy-yet-open space with restored terrazzo floors and a white brick, wood-burning corner fireplace that brings a nostalgic warmth. Sliding glass doors lead to a spacious screened lanai, finished with square concrete tiles and a tongue-and-groove knotty pine ceiling—perfect for enjoying indoor-outdoor living year-round.

The East Primary Suite
This light-filled retreat features two windows and a sliding glass door that opens directly to the lanai. The ensuite bath has been completely remodeled with walnut cabinetry, quartz counters, penny tile floors, and a matching penny-tiled walk-in shower with a pivoting tempered glass door.

The West Primary Suite
Oversized and filled with natural light from dual exposures, this suite offers flexibility and privacy. A jalousie window door creates the option for cabana-style access. The ensuite bath is equally refined, with dual sinks, walnut cabinetry, quartz counters, penny tile floors, and a walk-in shower with pivoting tempered glass.

Stylish Third Bedroom & Luxe Guest Bath
The third bedroom is filled with natural light and grounded by original terrazzo flooring that ties beautifully into the home’s mid-century aesthetic. Pull-down shades offer privacy when needed, and thoughtfully designed storage keeps the space functional without sacrificing charm. The adjacent guest bath is a standout, featuring marble hexagon tile underfoot, a walk-in shower with textured gray-blue tile and built-in niche, and a sleek walnut vanity topped with quartz. A built-in medicine cabinet adds both style and everyday convenience.

Thoughtful Updates Throughout
Refined upgrades enhance both comfort and design. Ceilings have been redone with a subtle orange peel finish—no popcorn in sight—while white louvered closet doors lend a cohesive mid-century aesthetic. A large hurricane-rated closet sits off the hallway, alongside multiple linen and storage closets. A brand new washer and dryer are located in the attached two-car garage. Recent system updates include a 2021 HVAC, a 2022 water heater, and a modernized electrical panel.

Waterfront Living, Reimagined
This property delivers the ultimate Florida lifestyle with 100 feet of frontage on both the Indian River and an intersecting canal—just four houses from open water. A newly replaced 52-foot dock includes custom bench shelving for added function and enjoyment. Southern exposure makes this an ideal setting for a future pool. The fully fenced backyard has been transformed into a private oasis with lush native landscaping, low-maintenance pea gravel, and vibrant plantings designed to attract pollinators, butterflies, and birds. Three mature fruit trees—starfruit, mango, and lychee—offer seasonal harvests. A sprinkler system on well keeps everything thriving year-round.
