Property Description
Welcome to your opportunity to continue the tradition as an admired bed and breakfast, or write your own story as a private family estate only steps from historic Downtown Mount Dora. The historic William Watt House, circa 1906, is currently operating as the Grandview Bed and Breakfast. This residence has been meticulously cared for, and all of the original features have been preserved throughout the residence. A large and inviting front porch, built with Cypress Wood from the local mill, welcomes you into the 3-bedroom, 3-full bathroom and 1-half bathroom main home. Original yellow heart pine floors, custom millwork, built-in bookcases, and two fireplaces, one being a Tiger Oak fireplace, creates a warm and inviting ambiance. The remodeled kitchen features historically inspired cabinetry, spacious countertops, and upgraded stainless steel appliances. The dining room overlooks the wrap around porch into the pool and extended patio area, which is ideal for entertaining and additional outdoor living. Upstairs, you will discover more of the historic charm, such as original light fixtures and cedar closets. The bedrooms offer beautiful views of the oversized pool and patio area, as well as incredible sunset views. Beyond the main residence, the brick paver patio leads to the 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom Windmill Cottage, a cherished Mount Dora landmark with Juniper white cedar vaulted ceilings, French doors, and bamboo floors. The Windmill’s 1930’s original frame remains intact, serving as both a nostalgic centerpiece and a unique architectural detail that you cannot find anywhere else. The Carriage House, built in 1996, adds exceptional flexibility with a ground-level guest suite with its own private entrance. Additionally, the upstairs of the Carriage house features a bedroom, living room, full kitchen and full bathroom, all with original bamboo flooring. This space is ideal as the Owner’s Quarters, or serves as an additional space for multi-generational living within a family estate. This building features a 3-car garage, and is steps away from the large outdoor parking area tucked behind the long driveway. Arches, and charming outdoor spaces create an ideal setting for relaxation or grand-scale entertaining, all situated courtyard style around the private saltwater pool. Just a short stroll from Downtown Mount Dora’s boutiques, restaurants, galleries, parks, and Lake Dora, this property captures the essence of history and all of the characteristics that make Mount Dora special. Offered turn-key furnished in the Main Home and the Windmill Cottage, this is an extraordinary opportunity to own one of Mount Dora’s most admired historic homes. In addition to its unique location in Mount Dora, known as the #1 festival city in all of the United States, The Grandview is also located only 45 minutes from Disney, Universal Studios, Seaworld, The Airport and The City of Orlando. This property is unique, because it is zoned for both commercial and residential. Call today to schedule a private tour.
