Located on one of Mount Dora's most cherished historic streets, this beautifully restored circa-1920s residence reflects the timeless charm and craftsmanship of Old Florida architecture. Nestled among the character-filled walkable neighborhoods that define Mount Dora's Historic District, this exceptional property offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of the city's early history while enjoying all the comforts of modern living. The main residence offers approximately 2,188 square feet with 3 bedrooms and 2 beautifully renovated bathrooms. Rich original hardwood floors, elegant crown molding, custom built-ins, and abundant natural light create a timeless interior filled with warmth and character. Gracious living spaces include a welcoming living room with wood burning fireplace, a formal dining room perfect for entertaining, and a charming Florida room that invites you to slow down and enjoy the home's peaceful surroundings.

Step outside to your own private backyard oasis. The gas-heated saltwater pool (2019) is surrounded by classic brick decking, lush landscaping, and multiple areas to relax or entertain. An outdoor shower makes rinsing off after a swim a breeze, while the pool cabana is equipped with a half bath (sink and toilet), additional washer and dryer, and a window air-conditioning unit—perfect for pool days without ever stepping inside the main home. Situated on a beautifully landscaped and fenced .43-acre lot, this property offers privacy, mature trees, and plenty of room to entertain while remaining just a few walkable blocks from downtown Mount Dora's charming shops, restaurants, waterfront, festivals, and parks. Historic charm, modern updates, a guest cottage, resort-style pool, and an unbeatable location—this is truly one of Mount Dora's most distinctive homes.
