3001 Blackshear Ave, Pensacola, FL 32503

Located on sought-after Blackshear Avenue in East Hill—directly across from multi-million dollar homes and offering views overlooking Bayou Texar—this Chicago brick home sits on a spacious corner lot and offers approximately 2,500 square feet of updated living space on a quarter-acre parcel. Originally built in 1966, the property underwent a major renovation in 2014, including updated plumbing and electrical, impact-rated windows, remodeled bathrooms, and a redesigned kitchen with custom cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a gas range, double ovens, and a wine cooler.  The main living area features an open-concept layout with 9-foot ceilings and a gas-ready fireplace. A separate family room with a second gas-ready fireplace provides additional living space. Both rooms open to a covered, screened-in porch that connects to a saltwater dip pool. The backyard features a two-tiered design with a raised, tree-covered lawn and a brick privacy wall.  Two bedrooms include ensuite bathrooms and large closets. The third bedroom is currently used as an office. Additional features include a guest half bath, crown molding throughout, plantation shutters, and hardwood floors under carpet in several rooms. A new HVAC system has been installed.  The oversized, side-entry two-car garage offers built-in shelving and a storage closet. A concrete parking pad on the side of the home is suitable for a boat, RV, or additional vehicles. A whole-house generator (installed in 2007) provides added peace of mind.
