Welcome to Old Melbourne River House, a beautifully preserved circa 1890 home in the heart of Melbourne on Florida's Space Coast. This quaint and cozy house features so much history with all the old woodworking, drawn glass windows, original hardwood floors - even a clawfoot tub! It is lovingly furnished with a casual blend of coastal décor and antiques and stocked with everything you need for a long or short visit. Modern comforts include 3 well-appointed upstairs bedrooms, 2.5 baths, an updated kitchen, laundry facilities, great a/c and more.
You'll be sure to enjoy our spectacular riverfront location! Guests love to gather and relax on the breezy wraparound porch or under the shady oaks at the bluff's edge. The property provides amazing front row seats to watch river life drift by - dolphins, sailboats, coastal birds and sometimes manatees too!
The whole home is yours to experience a unique and luxurious getaway. Scroll down to learn more:
