Overview

Nestled in a serene corner of downtown Orlando, this restored 1947 block bungalow stands as a refined tribute to its era. Upgraded throughout to preserve the 1940s charm while meeting today’s standards, it blends timeless character with modern conveniences—from pristine interior finishes to thoughtfully updated systems. The floor plan is oriented for effortless living, featuring a three-bedroom, two-bath layout with a versatile bonus room and a rare three-way open flow that honors the home’s historic DNA. Inside, original architectural details—plaster walls, warm hardwood floors, and graceful archways—coexist with contemporary touches: a chef-worthy kitchen adorned with granite countertops, a breakfast bar, neutral cabinetry, and stainless-steel appliances. Sunlit living and dining spaces flow together, enhanced by built-ins that add vintage warmth. The primary retreat offers a private sanctuary with a walk-in closet and an ensuite bath. Two additional bedrooms, separated by a full bath, are located on the right side of the home. Just off the kitchen, a versatile bonus room awaits—perfect as a home office, gym, or kids’ playroom. Stepping outside, the setting is equally captivating: this residence sits beneath mature oaks on a brick street, just steps from the vibrant Thornton Park scene and the energy of Lake Eola Park. It delivers a quintessential downtown lifestyle with walkable dining, shopping, and parks. A private, low-maintenance yard and a patio provide ideal spaces for entertaining or quiet retreats, framed by lush landscaping. Parking is effortless with an oversized one-car garage, a long driveway, and a separate parking pad. The property blends the romance of its 1947 origins with today’s essentials, representing a standout opportunity in the Lake Lawsona Historic District. Three city parks—Delaney, Langford, and Lake Eola are within easy strolling distance, making it perfect for families and outdoor enthusiasts. The surrounding neighborhood is lined with beautiful, mature oaks that provide shade and charm. Seller improvements and upgrades include a new roof with a 25-year Platinum Warranty transferable to the new owner (2/25), new water heater (9/25), new landscaping and drip line irrigation (3/24), New HVAC and ductwork (12/24), new windows in the majority of the home (5/23), new bathroom vanities and lighting (5/23), built-in living room media center (6/23), new Trex decking on the back porch (11/23), upgraded indoor canned lighting and fixtures throughout (12/22), and built in Sonos speakers (12/22).
