About this property

Great Family Home

Our home has high quality furniture, linens, cookware and tableware for your family dinners. There are large and small appliances (including airfryer) to help with preparation.
Enjoy a fully-furnished 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, 1600 square-foot, single-story house in the heart of Winter Park, a wonderful town that is adjacent to Orlando and that is home to an array of restaurants, galleries, museums, up-scale shops, businesses, professional offices, parks, lakes and hiking and biking trails. Rollins College is just minutes away from the house by car. Address: 1827 Mizell Ave. (Between Lakemont and Phelps)

The house has hardwood or tile flooring in most rooms; a large fenced backyard with a brick patio, lawn furniture, and a grille; front covered porch; and a concrete circular driveway. It has SpectrumTV, Wi-Fi; a printer/fax/copier/scanner machine; and DVD/CD player with DVDs and CDs. There are central heating and air conditioning systems; ceiling fans; smoke alarms; and a lawn sprinkler system. Lawn and landscaping care is provided. Traditional decor also available during the holiday season!

Downtown Winter Park has an Amtrak station. Getting to or from Orlando Airport from the house takes about 30 minutes by car. Both I-4 and 436 (Semoran Boulevard) exits are about 10 minutes away. Grocery and drug stores, Winter Park Hospital, and the Crosby wellness center are all within walking distance, as is a bus stop. Baldwin Park and Winter Park's public golf courses are minutes away by car. The Atlantic Ocean beaches, Walt Disney World, Universal Studios and other major attractions are about a 45 minute drive away.

We are a professional couple -- a retired architect and a university professor -- who live in Pennsylvania. Our daughter-in-law lives down the street from the house and manages it for us. We love the house and intend to use and enjoy it more fully in the future. We believe that you will like spending time in it. Contact us for additional information and availability. Community outdoor pool and beautiful YMCA are both available within one mile. YMCA honors reciprocal agreements with many other Ys. Check with yours before leaving home.

About the host

Hosted by Tom and Nell Hartley

Host profile image
We live in Sewickley, PA. Since our son was a student at Rollins, we have enjoyed spending time in the Orlando area.

Why they chose this property

We purchased this home when Tom was working in Orlando and our adult son was caught up in an eight year cancer battle. After his death and our return to Pa., we listed our home on VRBO as a way to help out-of-town people who needed to be in Winter Park . Whether they were dealing with illnesses, joyful college visits and graduations , visiting the local colleges / universities or simply coming home to visit family without needing to all stay under the same roof. We recognize the need for people to have an affordable option once the Lankford and Best Western were torn down. We also needed to give ourselves time before making a decision about the house. Our first guests had lost everything in Katrina and rented our fully furnished from us for several years until the end of their lives. We like the opportunity of helping others.
Selfishly, our family enjoys coming to visit Winter Park, where we have fond memories , a wonderful daughter-in-law and local friends. Being retired we are able to spend many winter months in this home. Renting our home to others helps to defray our costs. We especially like the idea of children's enjoying their time here.

What makes this property unique

The floor plan, brick-paved patio, beautiful fenced-in backyard,and master bedroom porch are among our favorite aspects of the home. The bedrooms and bathrooms are on either side of the large living area.The unique floor plan provides privacy for couples traveling together and or parents and children. The arrangement and furnishings support entertaining.
