About this home
Florida Charm or turnkey opportunity! This 1926 home on the National Register of Historic Places is a rare gem in the residential area of Mount Dora and offers flexibility as a private residence or its current use as a fully operational Bed & Breakfast. This home was an original L.R. Heim home and inspired by Italian Renaissance and you will be greeted by majestic lions on the gate posts as you enter this beautiful historical estate. This property includes a porte-cochere and 3 buildings -- the main house is 3 floors and a basement, Carriage house, and a separate building currently called the Quilt Room. Previous owners completely upgraded the home in 1978 and then again in 1994. Some of the more recent upgrades include new A/C units, new tile roof and awnings in 2018, plumbing, electrical wiring done throughout in 2020, water lines replaced in basement in 2024, new appliances, repair/painting the brick wall and completion of the sprinkler system for the yard. Please see list of Upgrades and Repairs attached. The main home features 5 bedrooms --the Fitzgerald Room, Hemingway Room, Gatsby Room, Lombard Room and the Charleston Room (currently the owners' suite) all with recently updated en-suite bathrooms. The owners' suite currently utilizes a private entrance to the exterior of the home. Entering the home, you are greeted with a gracious staircase and beautiful hardwood floors throughout. The foyer leads to a living room with electric fireplace, formal dining room and sunroom. Additional rooms on the main floor include the owners' living area (accessed by French doors from the dining area), kitchen and a breakfast nook which is currently used as office space for the B&B. The attic which is affectionately referred to as the "Penthouse" offers a full bathroom and living/sleeping quarters. The 475 sq ft basement is currently used as the laundry space for the B&B and storage. A paved exterior patio has seating for breakfast, lunch or sunny days of lounging in the beautiful gardens. The carriage house provides a totally separate suite with a full kitchen, living room and master bedroom and bath. This could serve as an in-law suite, generational living space, college student living at home, or rented as a cottage for a private residence. The third building (the Quilt Room) which is under heat and air, also can be used for a multi-purpose area and provides 480 sq ft of additional space. Plans have already been submitted to the city and approved for an additional bedroom with bath if so desired. This estate provides so many options: a private residence, a business with a profitable bed and breakfast operation, mix of residence and Airbnb and it is located in the desirable community of Mount Dora. Its prime location on 3rd Avenue is close to restaurants, quaint shoppes and the many festivals which Mount Dora hosts. It is also an easy drive to the Orlando area and all the attractions it has to offer, quick trips to the east coast beaches and easily accessible airports. This is a must-see property on your list!...
