Property Description
Welcome to this gorgeous historic home named the “Starbird Home” in city of Apopka, one of the first settlements in Orange County, which is now highly sought after.
Built and lived in by the famous Amos Starbird and his sons, who owned the Starbird Lumber Mill in Apopka. Proof the best heartpine lumber was chosen from roof to floor shows in the home’s amazing condition today.
In the early 1900’s it was used as the teacher’s boarding house complete with a small library for the children, the original bookshelves are seen today in the laundry room.
This lovely home has been painstakingly renovated into a modern home while preserving much of the historical charm, reusing and refinishing the original wood throughout. When you arrive, you will be greeted by the meticulous landscaped yard with a flowered arbor and the Fairy Garden pagoda. As you enter, you will amazed with the beautifully restored wood staircase w/custom made Starbird logo design, large open rooms with unique original designs, downstairs master bedroom with original fireplace retrofitted with gas insert, and feel the love poured into the seller’s home. Taxes say it was built in 1901 but family and historians say 1887 making it one of, if not the oldest livable homes in Apopka (But almost like new construction). Taxes also say 3 bed 2 bath but that is incorrect and has been a 4/2 for many years.
What is new you ask and has the energy efficiency of new homes? Two/2 HVAC system/condenser units w/gas heat plus ductwork & UV Virus filtration system, gas water heater, Double deck w/rubber membrane roof & covered 77% w/solar panels, gutters, electrical, plumbing, lighting fixtures and ceiling fans, kitchen, bathrooms, sunroom/mudroom/bathroom flooring, except restored hardwood floors, fresh paint inside and out...the list goes on, which is attached to MLS! The kitchen has new cabinets, high end appliances w/new dishwasher, Granite countertops, lighted wine rack & deep stainless steel farm sink. Everything is updated in each room with plenty of storage areas. Everyone will debate who gets the upstairs adorable A-frame bedroom with adjacent bathroom with sitting nook next to the antique stain glass window. Situated on large lot with mature landscaping ready to make your outdoor sanctuary. It includes 4 sheds for storage, screened in back porch, fencing of heavy duty wood & metal railing panels & plenty of room for a pool, boat or RV that includes a covered 2 car carport. No HOA! It is conveniently located in the heart of Apopka, blocks from Kit Land Park, shopping, hospital, clinics, restaurants, & public transportation. This area is being revitalized with brand new construction and beautiful old houses are in higher demand. Besides being a fabulous home, it could also be a great Airbnb or bed & breakfast. ACT FAST! This won't last long!
