Goodwin’s Passion for Historical Restoration

We are excited to be part of another historical restoration project.  This time, it’s the repair and restoration of a 1916 farmhouse at the Edson Keith Estate in Sarasota, Florida.  We custom milled a 2-9/16″ River-Recovered® Heart Pine Select and Vertical antique wood floor to match the original.

The farmhouse was originally built to serve as a center of operations during the construction of a large estate mansion.  The Italian Renaissance estate home was built in 1916 as a year round working farm. Today, the estate is part of the Phillippi Estate Park.  It is used for daily tours and can be booked for special events.

Goodwin partnered with Greg Best, Compliance Maintenance Specialist for Sarasota County, and installer Mick Behr of the Behr Snyder Group on this historic restoration project.
