HOME OF DR. L. J. WEINBERG JR. Lower Bay Road one mile south of Hwy. 90 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Built by the owner, this West Indies style home imparts a feeling of old world charm. The house took seven years to complete.
Recycled beams, flooring, hardware and old bricks were carefully cleaned and refinished. The house was constructed with close attention to every detail, plus the antique furnishings give the feeling of a plantation home of a bygone era.
Situated on 20 acres of landscaped grounds with azaleas, magnolias and sasan-quas. The 1,200 foot drive, which affords much privacy and seclusion, has a double row of live oaks planted in 1963 - hence, the name “Little Oaks Plantation.”
