Description

NEW PRICE—Historic charm meets elevated modern design in this fully renovated 1928 Craftsman bungalow, ideally positioned on a 0.23-acre corner lot with direct Lake Cherokee views in the coveted Cherokee Park Historic District. This distinctive 3,145 total square foot property includes a 2,631 SF main residence and a 514 SF detached guest apartment situated above a 728 SF air-conditioned garage—nearly twice the size of a standard 2-car—with an additional one-car carport. In 2020, the owners partnered with Ted Maines Interiors and Skolfield Homes for a top-to-bottom, design-forward renovation that honors the home’s architectural character while delivering thoughtful layout improvements, curated finishes, and elevated function throughout. A gracious wrap-around porch introduces interiors filled with natural light and layered details, including original hardwood floors, soaring ceilings, extensive millwork, hand-selected fixtures, and a wood-burning fireplace with custom surround. The kitchen is a showpiece with quartz countertops, a gas range and vent hood, stainless appliances, custom cabinetry, wood ceiling detail, and both an island and peninsula with bar seating. In the dining area, a built-in banquette now wraps a round table positioned beneath a sculptural FLOS multi-pendant light fixture. Just off the kitchen is a laundry/mudroom with 2019 front-loading washer and dryer, tucked neatly out of view. At the rear of the home, the family room stuns with dramatic ceiling beams, grasscloth wallpaper, motorized window treatments, and French doors that open to a spacious screened porch finished in composite decking. Step outside to enjoy the heated pool and spa surrounded by privacy landscaping and mature plantings that create a tranquil outdoor escape. Upstairs, the primary suite includes floor-to-ceiling drapes, Avia pendant lighting, a walk-in closet with custom built-ins, private balcony, and a spa-like bath with oversized vanity and frameless glass-enclosed shower. Two additional bedrooms share a renovated full bath with contemporary fixtures and generous storage. Zoned R-2, the detached guest suite offers a full kitchen, living area, bedroom, and bath—ideal for guests, multigenerational living, or rental income. Renovated in 2023, the oversized garage features epoxy floors, new A/C, a half bath, composite moldings, and an outdoor shower, perfect for use as a gym, workshop, studio, or cabana. A handsome brick privacy wall with two coded entry gates encloses the property. Additional upgrades include two electrical panels (2010), three HVAC systems (2003/2015/2023), a complete plumbing repipe (2017), two tankless water heaters (2008/2009), historic window rehabilitation, energy-efficient Indow inserts, and hurricane shutters neatly stored beneath the elevated porch. Located just south of Downtown Orlando and walkable to Lake Cherokee Park, playgrounds, restaurants, and top-rated schools, this one-of-a-kind residence offers timeless character, exceptional design, and the ultimate in flexibility in one of the city’s most iconic and architecturally significant neighborhoods. Rarely does a home so seamlessly combine historic integrity with modern livability, offering both beauty and function for today’s lifestyle. Whether entertaining poolside, working remotely from the guest suite, enjoying the lake at sunrise, or unwinding in the serene backyard oasis, this home provides a refined, turnkey experience for even the most design-minded buyer.
