From cozy lake cottages tucked beneath oaks to magnificent seaside homes touched by ocean breezes, Florida’s old houses come in all shapes and sizes. Folk Victorians with turned porch posts, Mission and Mediterranean Revivals with arched entries, and modest stucco or wood-frame homes still holding their original charm can all be found here. Some are beautifully preserved. Others carry the marks of time — beadboard walls, tall windows, and paint with a story to tell. If you’re drawn to homes with quiet character and a strong sense of place, you’ll find it in Florida.
