This tucked-away 1926 pink cottage is now on the market in historic DeLand

A perfectly pink, nearly 100-year-old cottage is now for sale just outside of Orlando.

The home, located at 748 W. Florence Ave. in downtown DeLand, was built in 1926. It has three bedrooms and two bathrooms and is a total 1,180 square feet.

The “artist home” has been fully renovated, but retains its historic Florida cottage charm — wide-plank pine floors, chair rails, board-and-batten walls — but the hand of the artist is visible everywhere, from the creative wall and trim color choices to the clawfoot tub festively adorned with a swooping lovebird to the hand-painted floral motif cupboard doors and living-room mural of Florida birds.

It also comes with a 320-square-foot climate-controlled studio, per the listing. The property is priced at $395,000 and the listing agent is Steven K. with beycome.com.
