Every effort has been made to preserve the home's original details, from restored rope-and-weight windows and original hardwood floors to its period-correct millwork and charming fireplace, preserving the authentic character and craftsmanship that make this home truly special. The property includes a detached guest house (ADU), offering a total of 4 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms. Complete with its own bedroom, full bath, kitchenette, and laundry area, the guest house provides exceptional flexibility for extended family, guests, a private home office, studio, or fitness space.

Recent upgrades provide peace of mind and include an electrical rewire with two new electrical panels (2021), tankless water heater (2022), a BRAND-NEW ROOF to be installed prior to closing, and a new washer and gas dryer (2024). Unwind on the front porch, entertain on the private backyard deck, and enjoy one of Orlando's most walkable neighborhoods. Just a short stroll to Lake Lawsona Park, Thornton Park's acclaimed restaurants, boutique shopping, Lake Eola, neighborhood parks, and Downtown Orlando, this one-of-a-kind historic home offers an exceptional lifestyle where history, craftsmanship, and modern convenience come together.
