Peaceful Living in the Heart of Central Florida's Golden Triangle
Welcome to your private retreat on 2.3 acres in one of Central Florida's most sought-after locations. Perfectly nestled between the charming towns of Mount Dora, Tavares, and Eustis, this property offers the perfect mix of country tranquility and easy access to shopping, dining, and entertainment. Come live in Tavares, known as America's Seaplane City.
This property is designed for versatility and enjoyment. Horse lovers will appreciate two fenced pastures, a pole barn, and a tack shed, ready for your equestrian needs. There's also a 30' x 30' metal building with an 18-foot door—tall enough for an RV and spacious enough to store boats, ATVs, or other toys. The oversized attached garage is equivalent to a 4-car garage, with three bays plus a large bonus area ideal for a workshop, storage, or hobby space.
Inside, the home impresses with an open floor plan and vaulted ceilings that create a bright, airy feel. The kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a gas cooktop with an electric oventhe best of both worlds for any chef. Wood-look tile flows throughout the main living areas, complemented by new carpet in one of the bedrooms. Enjoy meals in the eat-in kitchen or at the breakfast bar that connects seamlessly with the main living space.
The living room features a cozy wood-burning fireplace, while the adjacent family room and flex-space (perfect for an office or craft area) open to a large enclosed porch. This sunlit space is perfect for sipping morning coffee or winding down as you gaze over the serene pasture and open green space beyond, ensuring privacy and uninterrupted views.
The master suite is generously sized, offering room for a reading nook, workout equipment, or a quiet retreat. It features a walk-in closet plus an additional "his" closet. The ensuite bath boasts dual sinks, a spacious tiled shower, and a thoughtfully updated design.
The property is beautifully landscaped and home to a family of sandhill cranes that reside here year-round and raise their young on the property each season. This peaceful sanctuary is just a short drive to Orlando and the beaches of Daytona, giving you the best of both worlds.
Updates & Upgrades: Screened porch (2001), kitchen renovation (2011), master bath renovation (2013), metal building and tack shed (2009), roof (2012), HVAC (2016), and new flooring (2022).
If you're seeking space, flexibility, and a tranquil lifestyle in a prime Central Florida location, this property is a must-see.
