Sweet Magnolia, 3Br/2.5Ba, Downtown Historic Charm w/ all the comforts!

About this space
Historic Downtown Orlando charm with modern amenities! Close to everything, Sweet Magnolia is a spacious, 1915 gem in the heart of Orlando proper. Featuring a fully stocked kitchen, 2.5 baths, 3 spacious bedrooms all with blackout curtains perfect for a good night’s sleep. An expansive living room with 10-foot ceilings, guests can while away the morning in the sun-drenched coffee nook, watch the world go by in the front sun room, or simply use the house as a convenient home base to enjoy all Orlando has to offer. Explore the neighborhood with a gorgeous stroll around Lake Cherokee. Here for a show or event? Leave the car parked at the house - the Dr. Phillips Performing Arts Center, the Kia Center and other prominent locals are just a few minutes walk from the home.

The home combines original character with modern updates. As with many historic properties, guests may notice architectural features and layouts that differ from newer construction.

The property is located near major roadways and expressways, providing convenient access to downtown Orlando, Winter Park, medical centers, sports venues, and surrounding neighborhoods. The nearby elevated 408 expressway is not visible from the property, and the home remains quiet indoors, though guests may notice typical city or traffic sounds outdoors, particularly during peak travel hours.

The neighborhood is primarily residential with normal city activity. This location is best suited for guests who value walkability, accessibility, and proximity to downtown. Guests seeking a secluded, rural, or resort-style setting may prefer a different location.

Parking options are available onsite, and detailed arrival and parking instructions are provided prior to check-in.

This property is well suited for couples, families, business travelers, and longer stays. Guests are encouraged to review the full listing details, photos, and location information prior to booking to ensure the home is a good fit for their needs.

WIFI
350mbps high speed internet in the main living space!

Guest access
The whole house is accessible with a booking, and there are no other units on the property.

Please note there is no wheel-chair access and the designated entrance has 4 steps.

Other things to note
We have a 6 person maximum for guest stays. We have an outdoor noise policy in place with quiet times enforced between 10pm and 8am. If you’re looking for a party house, this isn’t going to be the listing for you. Please understand that we respect our neighbors and our community and want our guests to do the same by abiding outdoor quiet hours.

The Sweet Magnolia home was so great and homey! The beds were so extremely comfortable, the bedrooms were very large and there was plenty of space for our family to relax. The kitchen is a great size and everything was so clean! We loved the layout and the amount of space. The parking in the back is so perfect to get on and off the property. Our young son LOVED the foosball table in the front sunroom. The neighborhood is great with the lakes and park close by. It’s a great distance from Downtown Orlando. 10/10 recommend! We will definitely be staying here our next trip to Orlando!

Great experience at sweeet magnolia!

The hosts were awesome and super accommodating! They were thoughtful and even added a few sweet touches for my birthday, which made the stay extra special. Sweet Magnolia is stocked with everything you need — from kitchenware to umbrellas for those rainy days. The home was clean, well-organized, and very comfortable. While the front exterior isn’t much to look at, the inside is full of charm and cozy comfort. It’s located just off a busy street and close to downtown and beautiful lake. The only downside was the WiFi, which didn’t work well during rainstorms. Overall, a great stay in a lovely, historic location!

They thought of everything

Perfect place to stay in downtown Orlando. The neighborhood is quiet, but convenient to everything in the area. The host provided all the basic supplies and plenty of them. The bedrooms have USB connections for charging phones, watches, and earbuds. I would give it more than 5 stars if I could.

Location and house were perfect. Lots of parking. Close to downtown.

The house is beautiful and well stocked. The kitchen is also well stocked. This was the perfect spot for our long weekend trip, but would also be great for longer stays. We will be back!!!

We were very pleased with everything during this stay. The house was very clean and had everything we needed to stay a couple of days, even coffee, sugar, and creamers to our surprise. Five stars is fair. Thank you.
