Property Description
Welcome to 1920 Sanford Ave! Step into a piece of Sanford's history with this beautifully preserved home located in the heart of the city's charming historic district. Surrounded by a mix of century-old residences and tasteful new construction, this neighborhood is truly one of Sanford's hidden gems. Just one mile from vibrant downtown Sanford, you can stroll or hop in your golf cart to enjoy the area's boutique shops, craft breweries, and popular restaurants. Inside, the home showcases timeless craftsmanship rarely found today. Many original features from nearly 100 years ago remain intact, including stunning coffered ceilings, rich wood trim, and refinished woodwork that has been lovingly restored to its original luster. Thoughtful updates blend seamlessly with the home's vintage character, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere throughout. Unique details like two staircases, including a charming back stairway leading from the kitchen to what was once the maid and butler's quarters, tell the story of the home's past. Structural upgrades ensure its future - a new roof (2021) and reinforced steel beams beneath the house provide peace of mind for generations to come. The main level features spacious shared living areas perfect for entertaining, while the bedrooms upstairs offer privacy and quiet comfort. One of the most inviting features of this home is the spacious wraparound porch, a true Southern treasure. Whether you're sipping a glass of fresh lemonade, relaxing in a rocking chair, or just taking a moment to slow down and soak in the season, this is the kind of outdoor space that makes a house feel like home. This home sits on an oversized 0.32-acre corner lot, offering plenty of yard space for gardening, play, or entertaining, along with a detached two-car garage and storage shed for added convenience. If you're looking for a home that combines historic charm, craftsmanship, and modern stability - all close to one of Central Florida's most walkable downtowns - 1920 Sanford Ave is a must-see.
