Walkable, beautifully renovated historic home with lovely porches & firepit

Oak Street Bungalow

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

From the antique furnishings throughout to the classic, covered porches that wrap the house, this nearly century-old bungalow transports you to a charming scene of Old Florida where you're only about an hour away from the beach on either coast. Built in 1938 but newly and beautifully renovated, it's the best of all worlds - comfortable, convenient, and brimming with character.

This single-story bungalow sits among moss-draped trees near the heart of Arcadia's historic district. The corner lot is spacious and ideally located, only a few blocks' walk from coffee shops, bakeries, restaurants, markets, and other services in the center of town.

The front and rear porches are a nod to a simpler time, providing you with ample space to relax and watch the neighborhood pass you by. Sip your coffee on the porch swing each morning, dine out back at golden hour in the balmy Florida air, and end each evening telling stories and stargazing by the backyard firepit.

Period furnishings fill the living room, parlor, and dining room, giving the home's interior a wonderful sense of time and place. Yet every modern comfort is available to you as well, including a well-equipped kitchen with stainless steel appliances, a private laundry room, and central air conditioning. There are two full bathrooms to pair with the two bedrooms, one of which is outfitted with a smart TV.
