c. 1885 · Queen Anne Victorian

Architectural Review Board Meeting · 2026-07-30 · agenda_item

A comprehensive renovation and rear addition is planned for the historic Queen Anne Victorian home at 608 E Belmont Street in Pensacola. The property owner, Grace Jinnah, is proposing to restore the home's original character while addressing urgent health risks from existing siding. The project includes squaring off the rear of the house, adding a new covered porch, and replacing all 24 windows with impact-resistant units. New siding will be installed, and the roofline will be maintained with specific materials. The project is currently under review by the Architectural Review Board. This project will involve site preparation, demolition of existing elements, installation of new siding and roofing, window replacement, porch construction, and interior finishing trades. Local contractors, suppliers, and tradespeople specializing in historic restoration, siding, roofing, window installation, and carpentry could find opportunities. Engaging early before final plans and permits are set offers a chance to compete for this restoration work.
