About this House

What's unique:Private parkingOutdoor seating areaPrivate fenced-in outdoor seatingSeparate drivewaysLarge kitchen
In 1887, Leander Farnsworth, a shoe merchant from Detroit, Michigan purchased the property. It remained in his family until the 1930's. In 1992, the property was sold and made into a Bed & Breakfast. It has remained a Historical B & B ever since. There have been four owners during the period of 1992 to 2018. The present owners have taken great pride in this Historic Mt. Dora property and they have restored it to its present condition. As a result, the reputation of the Farnsworth House and its revenue stream have grown exponentially....Mt. Dora continues to thrive and has received many awards and national accolades to include "The Best Small Town in Florida". The town and the Farnsworth House compliment each other in a "win-win" situation. This beautiful property contains 9 separate suites, each with their own bathroom and seven with kitchenettes, within two historic buildings on a one-acre site in downtown Mt. Dora. The size, décor, and layouts are different in each suite. As a result, this property can be utilized for daily and weekly rentals, or as monthly and short-term rentals. The consistent feature of the property is the gorgeous condition throughout and the serene downtown site. The sale includes furnishings and equipment, business name and Marketing/Advertising tools.
1029 E 5th Ave, Mount Dora, FL 32757 is a 9 bedroom, 9 bathroom, 4,973 sqft multi-family built in 1887. It last sold for $445,000 on Aug 31, 2012. This property is not currently displayed as for sale or rent on Trulia. The Trulia Estimate is $1,247,200, with a rent estimate of $1,511/month.
