Step into a rare piece of Orlando history with this fully restored and extended 1901 “Orchard House” bungalow, located in coveted Colonialtown/Lake Highland neighborhood. This home captures your heart - with its generous front porch, planter boxes, paver drive, and majestic sweet gum tree – but the curb appeal is just the beginning of what awaits inside. Every inch was thoughtfully reimagined and reconfigured, maximizing the functionality, natural light and flow of the home while preserving its original character. This home offers the historic charm without the restrictions of a historic designation. Step in and be greeted by original heart of pine flooring, crown molding, high ceilings, a soft neutral color palette, and updated oversized windows that contribute to the home’s overall open, airy feel.

A first-floor ensuite with designer bath allows for a secondary master or spacious guest retreat. To the rear of the home, the great room addition offers 2 sets of French doors to the outdoors and room for multiple seating and dining arrangements for effortless entertaining and everyday living. A front upstairs BONUS room adds flexibility- whether you envision a cozy reading nook, craft room, or extensive storage, the possibilities are endless. A centrally located eloquent hall bath provides added convenience for guests featuring Rifle Paper Company wallpaper, updated vanity and walk-in shower. A secondary stairwell off the Great Room leads to the primary suite- a private retreat with its own covered balcony, his and her closets, and updated elegantly appointed classic marble bath with dual sink vanity and oversized seamless glass shower.
