Flipping Good Finds

Flipping Good Finds is a family owned and operated antique and vintage shop that opened on Highland Street as part of Mount Dora’s established antique district, housed in what several reviewers describe as a nicely redone old house rather than a standard commercial storefront. That setting gives the shop a distinct character compared to the larger, more industrial feeling multi vendor malls nearby, closer to browsing through a genuinely restored historic home than walking through a converted warehouse.

The inventory is broad within the antiques and vintage category, covering antiques, vintage treasures, furniture, oriental rugs, lamps and lighting, home decor, and general collectibles, curated by the family that runs the shop rather than assembled from dozens of independent vendor booths. That single ownership model, described by the shop itself as a mom and pop operation, gives Flipping Good Finds a more cohesive point of view than a typical antique mall, since every item on the floor has passed through the same buyers’ hands rather than being selected independently by unrelated dealers.

Reviews consistently praise both the variety and the pricing, with shoppers describing reasonable prices across a wide selection and specifically calling out the setting itself, the wonderful location in a nicely restored old house, as part of what makes a visit worthwhile beyond the merchandise alone. As a relatively new addition to the neighborhood, having opened in what locals describe as uptown Mount Dora near Highland Street, the shop has quickly built a strong following, with an active Facebook page used to share new arrivals and short videos highlighting standout pieces as they come through the door.

Situated on North Highland Street near Village Antique Mall, Flipping Good Finds sits right in the heart of Mount Dora’s antique district, an easy addition to a dedicated antiquing walk that also takes in the larger multi vendor mall a short distance away. For shoppers who prefer a more intimate, single owner curated antique shopping experience over the scale of a large mall, Flipping Good Finds offers a genuine alternative within the same historic neighborhood, distinguished as much by its restored house setting as by the quality of what is on the shelves.

The restored house format also gives the shop a room by room browsing structure closer to walking through an actual furnished home than a typical retail floor plan, with furniture and decor arranged in ways that let shoppers picture how a piece might work in their own space. That presentation style has become a talking point among visitors documenting their Mount Dora antiquing trips on social media, and it has helped the relatively young shop build recognition quickly within a neighborhood where several of the antique businesses have operated for decades longer.
