About this home
Unique opportunity to build a custom waterfront home on Lake Dora and the Harris Chain of Lakes, located just 2.3 miles from downtown Mount Dora and its year-round festivals, dining, shopping, and waterfront activities. This 1.19-acre homesite offers approximately 148 feet of shoreline frontage and features open-water views across Lake Dora toward the Mount Dora skyline. The property is already prepared for construction with a new dock (2025), covered boat slip, solar-powered pontoon boat hoist, newly installed well, and cleared building site following prior home removal. A lake-fed irrigation pump is also installed, providing convenient landscape watering capability. An existing 1,200 sq ft garage/workshop remains in place and includes 400-amp electrical service to support construction of a future residence. The workshop is fully insulated and equipped with an air compressor line, offering immediate functionality during the building process and long-term flexibility. The parcel extends on both sides of Lakeshore Drive while remaining one continuous legal homesite, providing flexibility in planning and use. Direct boating access is available throughout the Harris Chain of Lakes, with convenient navigation to Mount Dora, Tavares, waterfront dining, and surrounding shoreline destinations. A boundary survey completed at the time of the prior home purchase is available; however, the previous residence has since been removed and the survey has not been updated following demolition.
