Nestled in the heart of Mount Dora’s cherished Historic District, this 1926 cottage-style home seamlessly blends timeless character with thoughtful updates. From its signature eyebrow arch above the front entrance to the high baseboards, built-in cabinetry, and original architectural vents, the home captures the essence of 1920s design while featuring the comforts of modern living all on a premium corner lot. Step inside to discover a light-filled living room with a charming fireplace, bamboo flooring, and period-specific detailing that continues through the family room, complete with crown molding and chair railing. The updated eat-in kitchen—remodeled in 2021—features wood soft-close cabinetry, granite countertops, a tile backsplash, and stainless steel appliances, all accented by double French doors leading to the enclosed porch. The primary suite includes a spacious bedroom with a built-in closet and ensuite bathroom featuring a walk-in shower and lighted vanity. A second bedroom with a built-in corner closet and wood flooring sits adjacent to a beautifully remodeled second bath (2023). The separate laundry room, updated in 2021, includes storage cabinetry and shelving, a folding counter, and Samsung appliances. Out back, a private fenced yard, ideal for pet owners, connects the main home to a fully remodeled (2016) detached studio—perfect for a home office, creative space, or guest area—featuring tile flooring, built-in bookshelves, storage room, and its own mini-split A/C. Enjoy evenings on the enclosed porch or the painted cement patio with ample space for outdoor seating. The large circular paver driveway in front is ideal for owners and guests, and the additional parking pad by the studio provides plenty of room for additional cars, an RV, or a boat. With no HOA, and ideally located on a corner lot, this home is just a short stroll to downtown Mount Dora’s shops, restaurants, year-round festivals, and scenic spots like Gilbert Park and Lighthouse Point on Lake Dora. Nearby, you’ll find easy access to Highway 441 and Interstate 429 allowing you to quickly travel to the Orlando business district and attractions, or the east coast beaches.
