About This Home

201 8th St

Located in the heart of Port St. Joe with sweeping views of St. Joseph Bay, the Kilbourn-Fitch House embodies the timeless elegance of a truly historic Southern home. Built in 1918 and named for its original owner—a prominent ice factory operator from Apalachicola—this landmark residence has been lovingly restored to its former splendor and beyond. The home sits on two highly visible commercial lots, offering incredible flexibility for future use—whether as a private residence, gallery, boutique, or professional space. Step inside and you're greeted by the warm glow of heart pine floors and 12-foot tongue-and-groove walls, a tribute to early 20th-century craftsmanship. As you explore the thoughtfully restored interiors, you'll be immersed in the charm and detail of early 1900s life—enhanced with today's comforts and conveniences. A special feature of the home is the Art Room, a bright and peaceful space where the current owner finds daily inspiration for her acrylic paintings. This space, like the rest of the home, is steeped in character and creativity. The restoration process was a labor of love. Almost every piece of wood used in the renovation was sourced from Alabama, Mississippi, and Florida, and most pieces are over 100 years old. The interior has been completely rewired and re-plumbed, while the kitchen was redesigned for both style and functionality, featuring Alabama White Marble and modern finishes that blend seamlessly with the home's vintage appeal. To ensure the home's structural integrity for generations to come, the owners installed 8” x 8” posts, set six feet into the ground around the entire perimeter, reinforced with rebar and concrete—a thoughtful blend of engineering and preservation. Outside, the wrap-around porch offers glorious bay views. From its rich history to its modern comforts, the Kilburn-Fitch House is more than just a residence—it's a living testament to the artistry, resilience, and vision of both past and present generations.
