1101 River Road, Melbourne Beach, FL 32951

Description

Nestled on over 200 feet of direct Indian River frontage in one of Melbourne Beach's most historic and private enclaves, Mango Manor is more than a residence; it is a rare and irreplaceable piece of Florida's past. Built circa 1925 by Mark and Ella Oliver, early pillars of the community, the estate has stood quietly under a canopy of 70+ year-old mango trees for nearly a century. In the 1950s, it was lovingly expanded by the Fraser family, who transformed neighboring homes into guest quarters and filled the property with art, stories, and generations of memory. In 1996, Dr. and Mrs. Richard Moore took over stewardship of the manor and completed a full-scale restoration, preserving its soul while thoughtfully updating its systems including completely new electrical, plumbing, ACs, appliances, windows, doors, trim, drywall and ceilings, exterior siding and hand milled architectural details.
