About this home
Virtually Staged. PRICE IMPROVEMENT — Motivated Seller!
Welcome to 6019 Merril St in North Port, a rare 1959 mid-century gem on a canal lot, now offered at a new, more attractive price that makes this one of the best values on the water.
Step inside and you'll immediately feel the era's signature style: original terrazzo floors, dramatic vaulted ceilings, and a bright, open layout that lives far larger than its 1,395 sq ft. These are the authentic mid-century details today's buyers search for and rarely find—preserved and move-in ready. The updated kitchen blends modern function with the home's classic bones, featuring new cabinetry, countertops, and appliances, while both bathrooms have been tastefully refreshed.
Beyond the main living space, a large enclosed Florida room and a screened lanai deliver the kind of seamless indoor-outdoor flow mid-century design was built around—perfect for relaxing or entertaining year-round.
Set on an oversized .30+ acre lot with canal frontage, the property offers privacy, room to breathe, and a setting that simply doesn't come along at this price. To make the move even easier, the seller has obtained quotes for a new HVAC system and will credit toward the cost with an acceptable contract—reducing your upfront expense while you make the home your own.
Ideally located near US-41, I-75, shopping, dining, Wellen Park, and the Gulf beaches.
Homes with this much authentic 1959 character, space, and waterfront land rarely last—and at this new price, it won't. Schedule your showing today.
