About 1 S Eola Drive 2
Exceptional luxury residence with private entrance at 1 S. Eola, a boutique 23-unit low-rise Art Deco condominium overlooking Lake Eola Park. This extensively upgraded 3-bedroom, 3-bath residence with a large separate office offers rare architectural character, luxury finishes, and outstanding indoor-outdoor living. The home features both a second-floor interior entrance and a private ground floor entrance with an exceptionally large garden porch. One of only two ground-floor porches in the entire building, offering the convenience of no elevator wait and making it ideal for pet owners. The ground-level patio includes hot and cold water faucets and a floor drain, perfect for dog washing or outdoor entertaining. Inside, the residence has been thoughtfully renovated with engineered wood flooring throughout the second floor and stairs (2023), and black-and-white rectified porcelain “marble” tile flooring on much of the first floor. All interior doors were replaced with solid wood doors in 2024, including oil rubbed bronze Emtek hardware, and Buster & Punch wall switches and outlets were added in 2025.
The kitchen and entertaining spaces feature granite countertops, Thermador refrigerator (2024), GE Monogram wine refrigerator (2023) and a new LG stacked washer and dryer (2023) with utility sink added in the laundry room (2023). Two new Carrier air-conditioning systems installed in 2023, hot water heater (2023), and Nest thermostats. Bathrooms are finished with quartz, slate, designer tile and custom wood cabinetry.
Designer light fixtures, custom drapes, blinds and wood shutters (2024 – 2025) enhance the home’s refined style, along with Phillip Jeffries designer wallpaper and grasscloth wall coverings (2025).
The residence offers two outdoor porches, including a rare oversized round second-floor balcony-one of only three in the building directly overlooking Lake Eola Park, providing exceptional views of the lake, park, and city skyline. Parking is equally rare with two deeded garage spaces, including one oversized space which is closest to the building’s door, with private built-in storage. Dogs are allowed (up to two, with weight and breed restrictions), and the unit may be sold furnished (Restoration Hardware, Washburn Imports, etc.). Truly a turnkey luxury opportunity in the heart of Downtown Orlando.
