Beautifully Renovated Lake Eola Heights Historic District Property with New 2-Car Garage & 600 SF ADU/ In Law Suite/ Garage Apartment (1 bedroom, 1 bathroom, living area and kitchen) just two blocks from Lake Eola. This exceptional property blends historic character with thoughtfully updated modern living. The main residence has 3 bedrooms and 2 and a half bathrooms (1480 sq ft), which underwent a comprehensive, down-to-the-studs renovation, including beautifully restored original hardwood floors, vaulted ceilings, updated electrical and plumbing, new HVAC, and redesigned living spaces. The open central living area combines the living room, dining room and kitchen, creating a bright, spacious setting that opens to the sunroom and is ideal for everyday living and entertaining. There is a dry basement for extra storage. The redesigned kitchen features Thermador appliances, Cambria countertops and backsplash, custom cabinetry, and a waterfall island. Historical-inspired details throughout the home complement contemporary finishes, including two beautifully renovated full baths with designer tile, glass enclosures and backlit mirrors. The primary bedroom offers an ensuite bath, while additional bedrooms are served by a second full bath and a convenient half bath. A major highlight is the new modern 2-car garage with approximately 600 SF ADU, thoughtfully designed and in conjunction with the City’s Historic Preservation Division. The ADU includes provisions for a stacked washer/dryer and an elevator shaft/foundation connecting the garage to the second level (electrical and permitting for the elevator is complete). The garage also offers substantial built-in storage. New concrete walkways with brick detailing complete the exterior improvements. The property offers a rare combination of historic charm, extensive renovation, flexible living options and additional garage/ADU space. The location is central to all things downtown such as Lake Eola, shopping and dining in Thornton Park, The Dr, Phillips Center and much more. A true stand out home in the neighborhood!
