Property Description
Under contract-accepting backup offers. Timeless Charm Meets Modern Living in the Heart of Orlando
Welcome to 811 Laurel Avenue — a beautifully restored 1920s bungalow nestled in the coveted Park Lake Highland and Mills 50 district, one of downtown Orlando’s most vibrant and walkable neighborhoods.
On the market for the first time in 40 years, this 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home plus an office/den is a rare gem brimming with character, thoughtful updates, and inviting living spaces. Originally built in 1925, the home was expanded with a spacious two-story addition in the 1990s and further enhanced between 2013 and 2016 with a custom kitchen and luxurious primary bathroom remodel, as well as updated plumbing and electrical systems.
Step inside from the charming screened front porch and you’ll be welcomed by original heart of pine floors, a cozy gas fireplace, and built-in bookcases that echo the home’s vintage soul. Soaring vaulted ceilings and abundant natural light make the main living and dining areas feel airy and open—perfect for both relaxing and entertaining.
At the heart of the home lies a chef’s dream kitchen featuring GE Monogram appliances, rich stone countertops, a rolling island, and generous custom cabinetry for all your culinary needs.
The first floor offers two bedrooms and two full baths, providing flexible space for guests, family, or a home office. Upstairs, a light-filled loft with built-in storage leads to a serene primary suite, complete with vaulted ceilings, a spacious walk-in closet, spa-like bathroom, and French doors to a private balcony deck — perfect for your morning coffee or stargazing nights.
Enjoy year-round Florida living on the screened back porch, surrounded by lush, private landscaping. Additional features include new strap/tiedowns for the metal roof, new A/C units (2021), gas tankless water heater, whole house water softener, and fresh exterior paint. Termite bond is fully transferable.
This home offers the best of both worlds: the grace and charm of Old Florida architecture with the comforts and efficiencies of modern living. Located just blocks from shops, dining, and nightlife in Mills 50, and moments from Lake Eola and downtown Orlando’s cultural scene.
Don’t miss your chance to own a piece of Orlando history—this one-of-a-kind bungalow is ready to welcome its next chapter.
