Ever dream of living in your very own “Gone With the Wind” home? This is your chance to own a true Southern charmer, complete with white columns and plantation shutters, nestled on a serene half acre lot in the highly sought-after St. John’s Woods Estates in DeBary. This stunning two-story pool home offers 5 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and a two-car garage—all brimming with timeless elegance and all the Southern Belles and whistles. With 2,634 square feet of living space, the home features a beautifully maintained heated pool, wood burning fireplace, 16.5kw solar panel system (installed in 2020), a whole-home Generac generator, and Miami-Dade certified hurricane-impact windows and doors (installed in 2021). The primary bedroom with en suite bath is located upstairs alongside four additional bedrooms and a full bath, making it perfect for families. The kitchen includes a cozy breakfast nook, ideal for everyday dining, and flows into multiple living areas including a separate den and formal dining room. Step outside to the screened in patio overlooking the sparkling pool, pre-wired for a hot tub and complete with plumbing ready for an outdoor kitchen—perfect for entertaining year-round. Major system updates include a newer roof and exterior paint in 2017, HVAC units replaced in 2015, an 80-gallon hybrid water heater installed in 2021, and a whole-home water filtration and softener system. The pool’s heat pump, filter system, plumbing, and pump were updated in 2020 and 2022, and the termite bond is in place through 2031. The property also includes two septic tanks, both serviced in 2024, and a full irrigation system with a freshly resodded front lawn. As a rare bonus, the sale includes the additional adjacent half acre lot, offering unparalleled privacy with no possibility of neighbors to the side or rear. Conveniently located just minutes from major highways (I-4 and 417), you’re only 30 minutes from both downtown Orlando and Florida’s world-famous beaches. Enjoy easy access to the St. John’s River boat ramp, less than a mile away, along with the Swamp House restaurant and scenic Blue Springs State Park. This one-of-a-kind home looks like it stepped right out of a storybook—rich in charm, brimming with upgrades, and waiting for its next chapter. Don’t miss out—schedule your showing today! A little cosmetic TLC and this home can become a dream.
