Description
This masterfully remodeled historic home, located in the heart of downtown Orlando's highly-coveted Lake Cherokee neighborhood, is just a stone’s throw from world-class sports, theater, and entertainment options. Designer choices and attention to detail in this home set it apart from every other property in the downtown market. The main level has an inviting wrap-around porch, welcoming you and your guests to an interior that marries old-world craftsmanship with flawlessly integrated modern convenience. At the heart of the home is a well-appointed kitchen, opening up into the great room over a large island and separate bar top. The kitchen is complete with a walk-in pantry, chef’s dual fuel gas/electric range, hand-made exhaust hood, and soft-close custom cabinetry. A luxury farmhouse sink completes the look and a built-in curved booth expands the in-kitchen seating to accommodate eight. Upstairs, you’ll find three bedrooms and two brand new full bathrooms. A thoughtfully-executed master wardrobe allows plenty of room for all of your clothes, thanks to soft-operating pneumatic clothes rods that pivot down to meet you from the top shelf (no need to reach!). The master suite also includes a curbless walk-in shower with exposed brushed nickel piping, frameless glass barn door, and mosaic hexagon tiles. The full house bath includes the deepest soaking tub on the market, prepare to relax and enjoy! Every detail has been carefully considered and it shows.
Around back, the wrap-around porch continues and creates the perfect spot for an alfresco dinner with friends or family. The rear porch overlooks lush landscaping which includes mango, pineapple, banana, and other fruiting plants. Further into the private backyard is a large swimming pool finished with brick pavers and layers of tropical plantings. Next to the pool is another covered outdoor space, perfect for comfortable outdoor furniture and a big-screen TV, or to host your next poolside party. Adjacent is a two-car garage and a guest house on the second floor; both circa 2009. The one-bedroom, 741 square foot guest house successfully generates income through Airbnb and is registered as a legal short-term rental with the city of Orlando. The guest house shares an additional half bath adjacent to the pool, and has its own ground floor laundry. The garage has a 30-amp RV hookup and the driveway has room for boat and/or RV parking. This downtown estate property measures in at an oversized 75'x190', adding to its significance. Zoned for the highly desirable Blankner K-8 and Boone High schools.
