Property Description
Live, entertain, and even experience the Lake Eola Fireworks from your front porch in an Orlando landmark home in the heart of Thornton Park. Lovingly restored, and thoroughly “instaworthy” this iconic home marries the best of Historic Orlando with modern luxury and 21st Century comfort. Nestled in the heart of Thornton Park and adjacent to Downtown, 117 N Thornton Park sits amongst the redbrick streets and Orlando's famous shady century old oaks. The home is located just .5 Miles from Lake Eola Park and Thornton Park's nearby trendy cafes and shops, as well as downtown Orlando's vibrant arts and dining scene. Catch some shade on the front porch swing under the haint ceiling before stepping inside on the original heart pine solid hardwood floors that run throughout the home. The living spaces have been thoughtfully updated to pay homage to the home's history and offer a luxury experience, whether entertaining or relaxing. The gourmet kitchen (updated in 2023) offers an open floor plan with family room and easy access to the dining room and office. It features Bosch stainless steel appliances, lighting by RH and Aerin, plumbing fixtures and pot filler by California Faucets in a burnished nickel, living finish. The countertops and bar backsplash are natural, one of a kind, Quartzite, and the dry bar includes a wine / beverage fridge. All of the cabinets are custom, solid wood, and most feature pull out drawers. The center island includes storage on all 4 sides. Comfort and elegance flow seamlessly whether out to the deck and patio off the kitchen or to the screened in porch off the dining room. The main suite is color drenched in calm with space to sit and relax. The attached bath with dual vanities, Toto washlet, Kohler fixtures, walk-in shower, original clawfoot tub, and closet are spacious, well appointed, and beautifully lit with double pane windows throughout (as well as in the entire home). The guest bedrooms are gracious and offer good closet space. The “treasure” on the second floor is a screened in sleeping porch complete with a swing bed which will rock you to sleep amongst the treetops of Thornton Park. Alternatively, the porch is also a peaceful spot for a yoga studio. The home is appointed with custom blinds and draperies throughout and has been outfitted with solid 6 panel doors, and a custom wool runner up the staircase and down the 2nd floor hall which work collectively to make the home a peaceful environment. The woodwork throughout boasts 9” baseboards, crown molding, and 3 pairs of french doors. This is a wonderful home for entertaining as it offers open space, multiple porches and conversation areas, a private fenced-in patio with a peaceful garden of native plants; jasmine, an olive tree, and a serene fountain. The home offers a full height attic, as well as a cellar, off street parking, 2nd floor laundry, A/V closet off Family Room, updated and modernized plumbing and electrical, 2 zone HVAC, new roof in December 2020, and an irrigation system. The Thornton Park neighborhood is an welcoming community with annual celebrations and festivities for all.
