Incredible opportunity to live in one of Orlando's first and oldest neighborhoods (historic Lake Eola Heights) with walkability to Thornton Park, Lake Eola, and downtown. It also sits on a huge, almost quarter acre, lot. There are so many unique details in this 1938 Colonial Revival home from the plaster walls, crown molding, glass door knobs, hand turn twist doorbell, etc. The home has been fully updated within the last few years giving comfort of modern updates while still maintaining it's historic charm. In 2014 the home was replumbed, re-wired, added gas tankless water heater, and new air handler and compressor for downstairs. The home has a termite bond and was tented in 2019 prior to selling just to be safe. The living room offers original hardwood floors, fireplace with custom built ins surrounding it, french doors out to backyard, and a sunroom off to the side. The kitchen was completely remodeled in 2018. New brick floors, custom shaker cabinets, marble countertops, new stainless steel appliances with gas range, recessed lighting, and breakfast nook bench with storage underneath. Fresh coat of paint on exterior. Walk out on your expansive deck overlooking a beautiful pool. The pool house has tile flooring, beautiful exposed wood ceiling, a half bath with barn door, kitchenette, and best of all a roll up door with poolside bar! There is an enclosed outdoor shower off the back of the pool house. It can easily be converted to mother-in-law suite and rented out. There is a shed as well.
