Dr. P. Phillips House, Historic residence in Orlando, United States.

The Dr. P. Phillips House is a two-story yellow clapboard house with a deep porch at 135 Lucerne Circle. Two tall white fluted columns with ornate capitals support the porch roof; between them is a double wooden door with glass panes, topped by a transom and a small balcony with a red and dark trim railing. The house sits on a raised red brick foundation reached by brick steps, with two bronze lion statues at the base and brass plaques reading "DR. P. PHILLIPS" and "1893".

A colonel built the house in 1893 as a wedding gift for his daughter before it was purchased two decades later by a citrus industry businessman. The new owner used the property for many years to house his family and represent his business interests in the growing region.

The house is named for Dr. Philip Phillips, who bought it in 1912 and lived there until his death in 1959; his name and the date 1893 appear on brass plaques by the brick steps. The bronze lions flanking the entrance are a detail visitors notice before entering the banquet hall.

The house stands at 135 Lucerne Circle, Northeast, in downtown Orlando, on a raised red brick foundation reached by brick steps flanked by two bronze lions. It is used as a banquet hall, so the interior is generally seen only when attending a booked private function rather than on a walk-in visit.

The two bronze lions at the foot of the brick steps and the brass plaques reading "DR. P. PHILLIPS" and "1893" are easy to walk past. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on July 10, 1979, sixteen years after the death of the citrus grower who owned it from 1912 to 1959.
