Description
First time on the market! Truly unique Historic home, built in 1925 and located in Lake Eola Heights. Two blocks to Colonial Drive, Publix and public transportation; walking distance to Lake Eola! Just 500' to the newly renovated and dedicated Hillcrest Elementary, Orange County's only Foreign Language Magnet School! This home offers the original wood floors, separate dining room, spacious kitchen with center island, Corian tops and all appliances. High ceilings, crown molding and custom baseboards complete the home's personality. The home is a split plan. The private ensuite that acts as the master has its own private hallway with locking door and its own private bath, perfect for families or roommates. An inside laundry room is located just off of the kitchen. There is a large basement, perfect for storing away all your stuff! Of special note: 1) There is a guest house located in the rear of the home above the main home. The tenant is a 34 year old, mature Acupuncture Physician - no parties, few, if any guests, and with a proven track record of quiet residency and extreme courtesy to the home's occupants. 2) The property is zoned R-2, so the main home's occupants have their own utility bill from OUC. The average utility bill ran the owner approximately $242/month in the summer - he kept the thermostat on 78 degrees - and $170 in the winter with the thermostat set on 70 degrees. The most recent resident left the thermostat on 68 degrees year round and incurred bills of $375-$390 in the summer and $250-$275 in the winter. The home has a superb 4 ton Lennox air conditioning system. 3) The home comes with a tankless hot water system, never run out of hot water! 4) The owner provides lawn service, exterior pest protection (interior pest control is the responsbility of the tenant), termite protection, and a home warranty covering repairs.
5) Only street parking is available with this property. 6) The home does have central air and heat with the vents in the floor. 7) There is a table and 5 chairs in the dining room if the tenant wants them; if not they will be removed. 8) The home does have the original 100 year old wood floors. 9) If you are looking for the sizzle and sparkle of the new apartments in downtown Orlando, this HOME IS NOT FOR YOU. This home is seeking someone who appreciates the character, nuances and idiosyncrasies of a classic 100 year old dwelling.
